One tiny Kudos for HappyShark!
Well, at long last, I got some more done on the shark.
I've been putting off cleaning my cross member forever (it's so cold out there and the darned thing was sooo grungy) but I finally got it cleaned, painted and accomplished cleaning, painting and assembling my A-arms and tie rods. Feel kind of silly bragging here since I see folks who are able to do a ground up in what seems months but...it's an other milestone for me and yet one step further on HappyShark. Who knows...maybe someday she'll be standing on her own tires!!

If you ever get bored & need something to do: "COME ON DOWN!"
Everything I own is a "work in progress."

Re: One tiny Kudos for HappyShark!
Yes sir, they are. When the shark finally goes on the road, I am NEVER climbing under there again!
