I don't care as long as I get mine done first The gray/silver looks so much better in person. It's hard to see the true color in pics

thanks Dennis, I wish it was my bed. I need to finish mine, so I can paint it. I still have to weld the seams on one more bedside along with some other work. I can only go so far until it is time to buy parts. Then it will be on hold.

I don't think 198 would like that too much. But storage could add up pretty quick and we might just have to call it even.

You didn't interupt a thing. Glad you stopped in. BTW Thanks, the stance is perfect for me. I can't wait to drive it and settle everything in.

I had a lot of crap to do before he died now it is overwhelming. I'll try to get on here as much as possible, but if I go a few days with out posting ya'll will know why. BTW thanks for asking.

Over here it goes like this "Hey ya'll watch this"

Had a little time today to get one thing done that has been on the list to do. I swapped out the tool box on my welding/plasma cart to a bigger box that was extra since I got the wood cabinets and drawers. Now I can keep all of my metal working hand tools and grinding disc in one location. Thanks to Shannon for the help. BTW Shannon the old box is empty and ready for ya.

Re: My 1965 build thread

looks like a good Idea Alan. I work in the service and recovery section in my unit, and we have all kinds of plasmas, tigs, migs, CNC, oky/act. And parts all over the shop. Will have to build something like what you got.

Thanks fellers. it is really handy. I've got the metal rack on the back to hold the cords, hoods, face shield, dust mask, large vise grips etc. I keep all my grinding disc, tin snips, smaller vise grips, hammers and dollies, welding blankets, klecos, files, drill bits, air tools in the box. no more hunting for crap.
