Codi Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Hey Brad, that's looking nice man. I really like the gaps and accuracy of your headers. Your car is shaping nicely! btw, I put the Braille battery decals on today.......and do they look sharp and the next time I post some update pics, I'll be sure to post one. Thanks so much for the favor. I owe you one. Cheers, Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mooneyzs Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Brad... Awesome work on the Alclad. I am loving the mock up and glad to see you are getting some bench time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be away from the bench for at least a week for a long overdue fishing trip to the San Juan River in New Mexico.I gotta get my trout on!

10thumbs Posted September 15, 2015 Share Posted September 15, 2015 Fishing. I envy you now. Being from Florida, if you can't go offshore to fish, then a river full of trout is my 2nd choice. Especially with my Dad and brother. Lucky you. Enjoy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nytrozilla Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 I'm out on my fishing trip and have Walt's Puffer on the brain. What's up with that?I think your signature speaks for itself. You are truly haunted by styrene........or metal, whatevah......... Brad you just need to stick a 1oz bottle of thinner in your Creel that you can open and catch a wiff of now n then. Then get back ta Fishin'!I don't know if a bottle of thinner in the old tackle box will help though. I can recommend several pharmaceuticals that may be more effective.Feel free to pm me for...........OH LOOK!!! Something shiney!!!!!!!!!

GaryR Posted September 21, 2015 Share Posted September 21, 2015 Wow! Nice T!!!Altereds can be difficult builds, you really have an accurate 60's style car going.NICE WORK!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Thanks for the picture Greg although my catches weren't quite so photogenic.Thanks for your comment Ed although its not the smell of thinner I miss, its the fabricating.No pharmaceuticals for me except for something to get rid of this pain. More on that later.Gary - I appreciate you chiming in on this build. Its going slowly.Ok fellas...I'm working on this a bit at a time although I'm having some medical issues and can't stay still for too long and need to move around and change positions. I think its a pinched nerve in my lower back affecting the strength and causing discomfort my left leg. X-rays yesterday and an MRI on Tuesday and then we should know.

gasser59 Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 Thanks my brothers. I appreciate your well wishes. Fingers crossed and am hoping to get some relief soon.Right now, I've been working on making a new side mount oil filter because I just couldn't believe the crappy one I made earlier. Almost done.

Nytrozilla Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 Brad, as a lifelong sufferer of herniated discs, hopefully it's a similar situation as opposed to something more severe. It can happen from an injury or deteriorate over time. The VA rated me 20% left and 60% right leg partial paralysis. Basically that means it comes and goes.I hope you have a good diagnosis *cough*secondopinion*cough* that gives you treatment options.Hang in there my friend.P.S. Don't tell anybody here that I can only sit down for an hour at a time. They won't believe you because of how fast I build. Ya' know?

gasser59 Posted September 28, 2015 Author Share Posted September 28, 2015 Thanks Joe. I'm hoping its something less serious than a herniated disk to two. That may not seem serious to you but I've never had anything in my life but a cold. LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nytrozilla Posted September 28, 2015 Share Posted September 28, 2015 I'm hoping it's something as simple as a pulled muscle from all of that casting you were doing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gasser59 Posted September 29, 2015 Author Share Posted September 29, 2015 (edited) I'm hoping it's something as simple as a pulled muscle from all of that casting you were doing I can only wish. I was having trouble before going fishing but the trip took my mind off of it so I just need to be fishing more often.
