Looks great Doug. Let me know if you need to shorten your glove box lining. I did it on my 48 and it turned out slick. you really cant tell it was modified.

Hey Richard.....Thanks for checking in. All is OK, and we've been busy with other warm weather outside projects.
The Burb did come home in July and has been hanging out waiting on me. |

Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
So while we were out in PA I headed over to Iceburgh's place for advice on Burb building. Jim and his father in law are great guys and very nice. Really appreciated our brief time together. Plus the Burb is really nice! Drool!
Jim's advice was to keep building, get the Burb done and move on to the next project. He picked up a really nice 1960 shown here! Thanks again Iceburgh! Planning to get back on the Burb soon and will update when something worthy gets done! |

Grandson spotted this 3 foot black snake in the shop. Snake wasn't very happy when I carried him out. He didn't know how lucky he really is. When I was a kid and a snake like this was encountered, all heck broke loose. German Shepards went nuts, Grandma would really work the snake over with a hoe....Snake never had a chance. They still kinda creep me out and I DON'T want them in my shop. |

I feel the same way about spiders. everyone freaks out and says "agggghhh burn it with fiiiyyyeeerrrr" and I just scoop them up and put them out. education is the right way to handle it, taught my girls catch and release, when my oldest was 9 she brought me a jar of bees. they werent even mad, just confused. I even stopped a guys foot from smashing a jumping spider that popped out to see what all the noise was when I was cutting some old metal. he jumped on my hand (the spider, not the guy) and walked around then popped off somewhere.
