These picture are getting me motivated to get out and get to work. Unfortunately the weather isn’t sharing my motivation with teens and 20s for temps. Actually needed to bring my Dakota to the shop for an axle replacement. Not looking forward to the bill. Probably more than some whole vehicles I...

Awesome story. Thanks for sharing. Jim

Doesn't even look goi as a rat rod.

My neighbor told me to get a Coyote and bag my 89 F150. Would be cool. Jim

I was on the HAMB too for a while. Got turned off to it when I went to a local car show hosted by members. I have no rat rod or old car but love cars and have forever. Old car just not in the cards for me. One of the guys running the show asked what I had and I said nothing that really fits in...

Look great! Love the project. Jim

I can't say enough about the people on here. There is no bickering or putting down here at all, only encouragement. Can't say that about some other groups I am on. There are a couple welding forums I am on to learn , look at others work, and get inspired. I never post there because I am not a...

Very cool. Not a bad game. Sometimes they are pretty bad. Lots of hype. Missed the end. Past my bedtime. :sleep: Jim

There is a video online of that truck. Love it. Jim

There was mention of a wife support. Made me curious, how many have supportive wives and ask their opinions on your project. Bonus, how many wives help? I am fortunate that my wife is supportive, for the most part. Her complaint is I have too many projects at once. She never questions what I buy...

I wonder how many wives are supportive and how many of us ask their opinions? I’m going to start a thread. Jim

How is that even possible? Unreal. Jim

Not straight on but took this pic while in Cape Charles, VA.this past summer. Jim

This is pretty much what I could post. I am depressed this time of year. I have been taking up most of my time with doing remodeling in the house but it is not the same as building something out of metal. Spend too much time on the computer and watching TV too. I do work 4 days a week, 4hrs a...

I don't think I ever did a dual but remember doing the single in my small block Duster with a feeler gauge. Remote momentary push button to get on the high, open side of the dist. I would think duals would be the same. Jim

CT weather is very different depending on where you are today. Coast is mid 30s and wet while inland just a few miles is bringing icy roads with temps below freezing. Jim

I have another. When I was in tech college there was this older woman in our class. It was an electronics school but had more gear heads than nerds in te class. She had a car, I’m thinking Fairlane maybe, that she said had steering problems. Offers it to a couple guys who go to pick it up. Seems...

Look great! I may be in the minority but I actually like doing brake lines. Kind of satisfying when it is well done. Jim

Do a little fishing during the warm weather. Live on the coast but also close to fresh so do them both. We are also in constant remodel mode in the house. Get away when we can. Both love to travel. Favorite is just spending time with my Wife and kids though. Jim

First car I drove after getting my license was a 289 Galaxie 500. I thought it was so fast. A local guy was obsessed with Cougars. Saw him a few years ago and he still had one. Not a lot of them around when I was growing up. Jim
