Dennis has been forging along with various jobs.
Including the NASCAR C10 build.
Radiator in.
Fuel lines in, hopefully the last time.
And an effort to make the truck lighter.
Also on the cars is Dennis making a full, fibreglass hood for it.
From Fayetteville in Arkansas, Clem at Tubatrucks.com sent Dennis some gun racks for the truck too.
Also landed from Andy in Tulsa, another parcel with his ‘reject” Alu-Bronze castings.
I love their imperfection, Andy the welder/lodger scooped one Bull**** Corner, and I gave him a good Hope -lacquer too.
Every now and then I realise I sooooo live in the wrong country.
Workshops, trucks, trucks, trucks.
Dennis currently dailies this, rather than his supersized GMC, says it is a nice change driving the little GMC Cabalero.
I love driving it when I go there, for a one owner from new truck before he got it, it has areal 70’s feel, despite being an 87 model.
At work, his Son Adam bought this 2006 for $250.00 including a full tank of gas.
And was given this one for free two weeks late.
Time we changed our employers.
In other news.
From Russia, Vladimir offered me a Moscow plate for my collection.
Saturday came and went.
Sunday Bootfair delivered.
At £4.00 compared to the normal range of £10-20 fora jockey wheel, this price was right.
Meaning I could move the shed carAvan and the welding caravan plus other junk off the drive.
Consolidating pallets with half bags of sharp sand and gravel for concrete when I chop up the driveway and move it 400mm to the side in order to straighten it out.
Looks like a holiday camp.
Looking better.
Posts in perspective.
Loads of work to get to this simple point.
Other direction
From Mickeys place, he is about 500mm below my level.
Once all was tidied and sorted, I put stuff back in place
Have called a steel rigging and roofing guy to come look if he is prepared to take on a small job like this.
Hopefully he will come on Friday to look.
