    Don't fear The Fears

    Sam and his bride took a trip through the mosquito kingdom and stopped by for a little garage visit. Awesome folks, nice meeting you both. Sorry there aren't any pictures, I wasn't in my witless protection disguise :rolleyes:

    Armstrong spring eye reversing

    OK fellow rats, follow along as I re-shape the rear Model A spring. Reversing the spring eye will lower the stance. Starting to straighten the rear leaf, notice the outline on the plywood. That is to get the original shape back. The press was used with some heavy wall round tube. My arm got...

    Model A headlight sealed beam conversion

    I picked up a pair of converted headlights from vintageT with all the Model T parts this summer. There was a lot of noise inside them and upon looking closer, the conversion was rusted beyond saving. Did a bunch of searching and couldn't find the kits anymore through the normal outlets. Saw a...

    Okay, this is just info at this point. I made the trek up to see vinageT (Dave) this morning to purchase some stuff for an up coming project. Nice, beautiful holiday drive into Wisconsin. We made a deal on the parts and this is what I came home with. Thanks Dave, good to see you again. I...

    Owatonna MN Elks ALS Car Show

    Took the truck down to a car show today. Not any real rats there but I had a good time and met some good folks. The first two are cool to me because I had a red one when I met the wife.

    Recent projects

    The vice grip collection started to become a mess. This rack helps keep them organized. I made a fence for the drill press using bolts in the T slots of the table. Loosening and tightening the nuts was a pain and made it hard to use. Playing around on the lathe produced these handy knobs...

    Pedals

    How many of us think about the pedals in our rides? I was stripping down the old Ranger for the next project and thought the pedals had potential to be cool. Here is a piece of scrap polished tread plate that got the hole saw treatment. Testing the new pieces out, the direction of the tread...

    New, ummm old shop fridge

    This fridge has been in the family for years. It was my grandma's that was brought here from California in the 50's. Mom said they got it used. Today I updated it with a vinyl wrap, those rounded corners were a bugger. Now I need to decorate it. Coca Cola sticker, Snap On Sticker, Racing...

    Hinges for a coupe deck lid

    My brother has my old Hudson coupe and needed to mount the deck lid. Since it was a rumble seat using stockmounts wasn't an option. While at the U Pull this summer we found some newer hinges from an import. Earlier this week he sent me pics of his success.

    46 Dodge

    Its my vacation week, so another project getting started. I saw this a year ago on a visit to northern Minnesota. It arrived last week for $200, we set it on the S10 frame right off the trailer. Yesterday my son helped me pull it up to the shop. I love the cherry picker lift.

    I have been doing some work on the Willys project while I figure some things out for the AD-kota. The Willys is going on my old '85 Ford Ranger. Its a good ole truck the body is rotting off of. I made the radiator saddle to bolt in to some factory holes. Having open fenders the wheel may...

    Some home brewed work stations

    Decided to finish up the drill press cabinet. Another good idea stolen from Youngsters shop. My daughter picked the rustoleum metallic blue for it. My son said it looked like it came from Lowe's. The diamond plate was left over from a previous job I had 14 years ago. There might be $20 in...
