It's a start
Getting a start on my Dads panel. Bringing it up to date with ifs out of an 84 C-10. Not ideal for width but the price was right. Almost got done cutting the front half off but I ran out of oxygen. The wife thinks the torch is "scary". This is my first demo/build thread and will try to post pics as I go.

Re: It's a start
Looks like you got a good jump on it. I am helping my dad on his 52 truck and it is fun to watch him getting into it. Good luck and have fun.

Well, if that really is the look of love, mine must worship the ground I walk on.

Re: It's a start
I always though that was a standard look whenever they come into the garage....hmmmm. We were racing before me and the wife got married so she has seen some stuff...lol. Now when I tell her what I am going to do she says "Have Fun".

Re: It's a start
Funny, My wife says the same thing when I'm about to delve into something big on my truck as well...
