1937 Packard 115 coupe

Those lights "floating" on the fender are perfect! Great vision and great work!

Made a pair of gravel guards to replace the long gone originals inside the rear fenders, they keep rocks from whacking the back end of the fenders and making nasty bumps and stars in the paint. Also keeps crud off the tail light wires.

His wife hasn't been well so he hasn't made much progress as far as I know.

Right you are SnoPro, thanks. What was expected to be a month in hospital is now 10 weeks with no end in sight yet Priorities change when health is an issue so I have to take care of number one first. Eventually I'll get back on the Packard, likely not going south this winter so there may be some extra shop time this winter....

Please accept our best wishes for your wife's recovery. Trust me, we know how health issues can suddenly change your priorities! I've just been given the ok to travel (within Canada) so we are heading your way for a little get away next week.

Good thoughts sent your way. Hope the wife gets well soon. Take care of yourself as well.

 

[bob w]

That's a long stay in a hospital. She must be mighty tired of it. I'm sure you are getting lots of time there supporting her. Hoping for a good outcome for you two.

Oh yeah the Radium comment was directed at BillM.

I wish you were able to come but understand the circumstances make that impossible. All the best, hope your wife is closer to going home!

Swept the floor and dusted stuff off, turned a couple wrenches for the first time since the start of July. My wife just got home last week after 14 wks hospital and 7 wks rehab, a long tough haul for her - glad to be home for sure Time to start some work on the Packard again as time permits. Took off the exhaust today, it was all just tacked together - went to weld them up and realized I'm out of stainless MIG wire.....

Really glad to hear your wife is at home, and things are improving.
