You’re motivating me to go out and do something as often as I can Torchie. Don’t want to fall too far behind. 🙂

Take what ever you can from my posts and use it, Ian.

You’ve got a week to get ahead of me as I am out of my leg for that long on Drs orders.

I apparently tore up my stump worse then I thought.

My wheel chair won’t fit under the car body. LOL

Grounded Torchie.

You might have to bag it.

Hang in there, Torchie.  You have a Global cheering section.

Yes, maybe a custom wheel chair is in order. Chopped, sectioned, channeled and bagged as Tony suggested!

LOL.

Having a hard enough time getting the car done, Mitch.

Tomorrow(April 21st) is my follow up with the stump Dr.

I’m looking to get cleared for duty so will will see what they say. As compared to what I say…..

back under the Dodge body.

No chopped and bagged wheel chair. Just a wooden box on my creeper.

Shorter then the stool but rolls like a dream.

PS inners all seamed sealed up.

On to the POR 15/undercoating.

I also picked up a piece of missing grill. This bolts to the gravel pan.

I already have the DS.

Keep moving forward…..

I’m calling this part of the program done.

PS underneath coated with Por 15 then sprayed with undercoating.

I sprayed the Por 15 this time. I should have done it that way the first time.

Cheers!  High Fives!  Oops, I forgot….21st Century:  Make that Like.  Or that tumb up thingy.

Moving forward to the lower cowl area.

The DS is completely gone and the PS gives me little clue as to what it is supposed to look like.

Since this is not a restoration I will rebuild this area with an eye towards strength.

I have no doubt it will turn out better than the way the factory did that area.

Thanks Mitch.

Working at getting my groove back……

Knocked a few items off the list.

Then dropped the rear end down so I can cut out the spare tire well so the body will fit on it’s intended non stock frame.
