[I-R-POPS]

Dove hunting

I took 4 of my grandsons and one of my sons on a shooting spree.
Had one with a BB gun (7 yr old), one with a pellet gun (8 yr old),
One with a 410 (10 yr old), and one with a 20 guage(12 yr old) and our 12 guages.
Had a ball and even managed to get enough Dove for a great meal for three families. Some part of life is still good!!

Thought a lot about my Dad and the time spent in the fields with him over the years.

Well done Ernie and Pops.
Finally got brackets fabbed to put my signature (3 cars now) wooden dining chairs in the '51.

Can't tell from the heat but winters coming, so I was cleaning and organizing the shop. I need to fit the AD-kota and the 46 Dodge Ranger.

 

[52 fordman]

cleaned !!!!

Cleaned the garage and the pipes for the wood stove. Got a set of air bags installed in the back of the 66 C10 ( in place of the springs ) and started on replacing the rocker and cab corners for the passenger side.

I received 2 running boards for a project I have in the back of my mind... and haven't started yet...I have the body (mostly), suspension and drivetrain so I guess that isn't too bad? Just have 3 projects ahead of it! Lol [cl

 

[imthegrt1]

Got the doors put on the garage

 

[21willys]

The wife and I started tearing down one of the grain trucks we have. We was going to build our jeepster next but I bet this one beats it to the shop.

 

[imthegrt1]

Garage doors are up and working.
Part shelf built.
Metal stand completed.

 

[earthman]

That's a pretty shop bud.

Skirting it
The list goes on and on

I'm finally getting the Caddy daily driver project wrapped up ! [cl The motor room has been painted, new a/c stuff installed (to change the evaporator you have to remove the engine on this car, so I am putting every part brand new so I never have to do that.) Now I can paint up the engine a little, put some new parts on it, and maybe get this thing out of my shop so I can start on my rpu again.

But my Son Dan has been slowly making progress on the cage in his Fox Mustang drag car. He has 6 of the 14 points done and the hard bending is over. He couldn't find a premade cage he liked, so we bent it all up ourselves. Still has dropdown bars to do, a seat bar, dash bar, door bars, etc, but this really is coming along well.

Should be very strong and not have a problem passing tech. Here are some pictures I took tonight.

I swapped to the snows and changed the oil in the wife's daily, started on my jib crane project, decided to teach myself how to TIG weld now that I figured out I had a bad regulator and I still have one more day to go![cl

 

[fuzz]

Got the A Bucket running and drivable. Brakes needed some fine tuning but they feel good on my short driveway.

 

[earthman]

Started to put the new tank in the '51 but it requires a 5 bolt sending unit rather than the new 6 bolt i just installed in the old tank. Oh well. While waiting for the new unit i started cutting the cab off the s-10 in anticipation of finding a cheap '40's cab to use. I realized this is the FOURTH body now i have cut off over the years with plans to replace with and old one.

 

[soltz]

Reworked the seat so my fat a$$ will fit in the short little thing [

 

[Whyworry]

Finished up the welding on chopping the top on the 47 Willys p/u .[cl.. than cut the roof off to make it into a removeable top.
