Well this is nice to know. Other than the grills being cracked everything on this car is pretty nice.

That's not the one I was thinking of, but that is one sweet truck I hadn't seen before!
Today I had a day of unexpected warm, sunny weather. Which meant I did an outdoor project I've been holding off on - I made the fence between my house and my garage "swing away" so I could get the part storage trailer and my parts car into the back yard (and actually park my daily in the driveway
)
But I did start tearing down the driver's side
This side will need more repairs in the pillars. I have a patch for the rear pillar and I'm going to fab up the lower section below the hinge pocket (which is in fine shape)
Other news, there was a baseball sized dent in this pillar, which I'm working on massaging out. I've never done hammer and dolly work before, so slow going here and being careful. A tap here, a tap there!
I should have a pretty easy week at work this week so stay tuned for updates!
