+1, That's excellent advice. Either that or body work/paint. We all have good to excellent skills turning wrench's and even fab work....
I've rented commercial /retail space with a rear garage and added an apartment more than once. Each time I moved out it was due to a marriage....
I bought a DB150 for the shop a year ago. We mostly blast raw metal to etch it for primer/paint. It's high carbon steel so I was concerned that...
I'm a 30's junkie and love seeing all the progress. Keep the photo's com'in.
I like the look. Tuff finding examples though. Here's one from Goldvien_25 off another site. [IMG] Another in a cream to match the...
Ditto! I'm getting back into it but this time I'm taking it slow. Looking to buy and rebuild a DD pick-up. Just one, not several. Once I...

I'm new here but not to old trucks. If the body is 90 percent and everything is there I'd jump on it. Saying that, a couple more pic's would...
It's a no brainer. Fly up and drive it back. I think you are mentally prepared for the adventure, no matter what happens.
Just my 2¢ on this as another option. After my new car was broken into in a hotel parking lot, shattered glass and glove box emptied, I looked...
Born & raised here. Haven't missed a Canfield swap meet or the A&W gathering in Boardman for close to 25 years. Work kept me traveling and Hot...
