    Elegant decay aka the "Ratty Caddy."

    Nice work, love the Caddy! My chev has some similar issues that were glassed and patched in the past. My trunk is still unfinished, covered in carpet. When I replaced the fuel sending unit, I just cut a little more to get to it. :rolleyes:

Ford in...

Sometimes i will type in rat rods, or corvette, jeep cherokees of the little boxy version or commanche Now and then there are driveable deals, or a lot of piles of rust or...

    Anybody set time lines to get stuff done?

    When I first got the old chev I thought just owning it was good enough, and it was just something to tinker with. That didn’t last long. I was out there everyday making it at least driveable. Then once that happened I spent another month making it safe, followed by making it perform. Now that...

    Cars in the Hills

    The Essex avatar pic looks almost the same, to clear it up, what I was saying is I like the Dodge roof/cab you have. Wife's family is from North Bay, Ontario, been there twice. I thought that was the Arctic circle. Others live in Blind River.

    bored

    Well congrats on the retirement deal! I have been since Feb of 2019. I have to be somewhat frugal with project cash, so only one project under a barn lean to, and just enough to keep it on the road. Just spent 27 bux on a Hurst Promatic spring repair kit. What scares me now since I live...

    Treed 4

    Great shots! I have armadillos all over the place. And holes in my yard. They seem kind of use to people...and even my dog. My cats don't know what to do with them so they stare at each other. Would rather have the deer. .
