89AKurt

Clean build! I think the neutral white background works nicely with this. If it was dark, the contrast might wash out details.

First cookout this year! Grass-fed local beef and potatoes from the farmer's market, cooked on Mesquite.

Thanks! Yea, I still need to be convinced 3D printing can match this. Finally getting back on track. I had to make a couple fill gap parts, guessed wrong on size; a carpenter's rule is to measure twice, cut once, can't grow lumber. Not showing that screw up. Worked on the headliner. Had pictures and a pattern screenshot to get an idea of how to make patterns which are drafting sketch paper. Transferred to the craft paper. I folded over the triangle first where it was needed, then sprayed the back with water, and press fit inside. Lots of trial and error, and trimming. This can't be dry fit, worked on one piece at a time. When I glue in, it will be do or die time.

The The 1947 - 1959 Chevrolet & GMC Pickups Message Board is a goldmine of information. It has saved me much grief when working on my previous '69 and current '68 pickups. I'm also 89AKurt on there. When I was looking for my first antique pickup (late 90s), looked at a '55 Cameo that was white, but because it had the cheap fiberglass bed sides and there was a big hole in it, I declined buying it. Got a rolling wreck '48 5 window instead. When I was buying parts from someone near me, saw that truck parked among their collection, they were thrilled to have found it, all original and really good shape and the price was really good too! I was sick, but I didn't know anything about these trucks then.

Domino theory in effect. Of course you need to turn the other 3 wheels! Even after you weather, I'm sure the shine difference will still be evident. Sorry, been there done that. (reminds me, haven't touched my Paris-Dakar 959, so you are making more progress than me)

Here would be an interesting subject to "weather". Touching story too. How This Long-Lost Bugatti Was Rescued from the Bottom of a Lake After Missing for 75 Years

It's been decades since I got a lifetime supply from the local newspaper. First time they gave me a sheet for free, second time I paid for it. It has to be the traditional printing press sort of print shop. I love the stuff because it bends without breaking, unlike roof flashing.

Reading the build process reminds me of kit bashing for some reason. Not Your Average 1,400-Horsepower 1966 Chevy Nova Street Machine

Hear canned laughter.

Great job on the rusty weathering, I have a project that I will try it on. The engine hood hinge: does the lid stay up by itself?

Food obsessed much?

Some time has passed! Red Frog did refund my money. I feel lucky.

breath, need to

sprinkled with rock salt

Built the 356B decades ago, sold the Alfa GTA years ago and sort of wish I kept it but have 180 models now so why do I need another model oh wait I'm an addict never mind.

I happen to know who owns #001 Ferrari. He was living back east at the time he saw an ad in the paper, it was a basket case. Found the engine in South America. Experts argued about it's authenticity, until he brought it to a show. It's in unrestored condition, so it's not sexy enough to be all over every Ferrari blog, we see the cycle fender version. If I recall, "C" is part of the serial number. He took me for a short ride around the neighborhood. These pictures are at a Prescott Antique Auto Club in 2008, that's me behind the wheel.
