Been wondering what's going on with you and Buford! He's looking good with fenders, hood and doors. [cl[cl[cl Can't wait to see him with some paint.

Well Here goes. Me and Buford.

I have been working on Buford but I have missed a lot because fall allergies (you've heard me whine and cry about that before so I'll skip it).

I was missing a panel for Buford since I got him. It's called a "slam panel" and the hood closes and rests on it. Ain't one in captivity! So I cut the tops out of two 56 F100 rear fenders and welded them together. Still got more to do but I think it's gonna look fine. The contour is correct but, like I said, still workin on it.

My Black Walnut doghouse is done....just gotta mount it. I like it too! Pics, pics, pics.... More later....

Still hanging in with you [P[P[P

 

[earthman]

That awesome doghouse added some real character right there

 

[Snake Farm]

Alright Lynn! Good to see progress on "Buford" Dig the Walnut box and that shot with the grille in really puts a face on the ol' boy! [cl[cl[cl

Doghouse

I can't take credit for the doghouse. It was built by bigratREO. He is a member here on RRR and an awesome wood guy. BTW, I found that piece of aluminum you see in a scrap pile. He inlaid it and I glued on the Ford oval.

Me and Buford..... Forgive me for dropping out for so long but Mr. Parkinsons has been kickin my butt. And...my computer is broke. Can't post pics! But I am close to having Buford on the road. Maybe a couple more months if everything goes well. Getting computer fixed....pics soon.
