  5. I was finally able to get an appointment to see the hand specialist, so hopefully he can get my meat hooks fixed up eventually. As pleasant as it has been dealing with these guys I really want to get back to doing most of my own work. :D
    Obligatory car picture:p

    scotty, my experience with hand specialists is they all tell you that you need carpel tunnel surgery.

  8. Very true, i had surgery on my right wrist 20 years ago. It didn’t do much For me. This guy says they are much more advanced than they were then. Apparently there are multiple things going on with my wrists including one bone in each forearm that is too long! I think that explains part of my problems since i was in my early twenties. It will be interesting and i am grateful to have a good job with good insurance and sick pay!
     
  9. I am short, but not that short!:D

  10. New dash holes! The purists will cringe! Yes a virgin dash was butchered. Gas, oil, temp, volts and vac green line gauges (repro). Dixco “Big Daddy Don Garlits” tach mounted on top of the dash, it’s gonna be cool.:D

    LEAVE IT ON, PLEASE!!! That has got to be THE best lookin' air cleaner Chevy ever made! If I ever decide to go back to a single carburetor on mine, that air cleaner will be on top of it, for sure! :cool:

    Yeah, as long as the holes are not for a late model stereo I’m totally cool with a few holes in the dash here and there.
    My dash has a few as well! [​IMG]

  21. The 56 will be home real soon. I’m attempting to make room. Cheap beer and good music is distracting me tho!

    Yes this happens at my house too. When a car moves the vacuum of space attracts crap which then moves into the space! Lol

  25. The 56 is on it’s way home! Sadly the progress will be slower now that it’s up to me, but there’s not all that much left. WOOHOO!!

  26. It’s not an award winning show car, but it’s shaping up to be the nicest one I’ve owned. The hood has been off so long it took me a minute to figure out how to open it!
