What'd you get done this weekend?

I did good. Got the fuel tank for my daughter's Nash set up - sender, pickup tube, fittings... ready to install.
Made good progress on her floor, got the trans tunnel fabbed up to go around the auto trans and still have install / removal clearance and plenty of footroom.

What'd you all get done?

 

I got my passenger door guts all working and the door latches closed now.

And I put my switches in my column drop!!

 

Successfully put a rod through the pan of my race car & took the '57 for a little spin

 

All I did was try to decide weather to try to get my interest back on my project or to part it out or sell it and move on. So I got nothing done this weekend.

 

Mowed a lot of grass.

 

went to KOA's Lead Scene East! gettysburg, pa

 

Bombed around in my little roadster for hours in hot central California!!

 

Pulled the 390 fe out to put a sbc in.

 

I did nothing, worked for my Elk's lodge for their fish fry for 6 hours on Friday served 1600 so we did nothing on Sat and Sun but enjoyed the weekend; Spent sunday afternoon in the hot tub with bloody mary's some one has to do it

 

Blew off sheet metal from Montana Barnfind '42 Ford Convert.

 

Since I'm just now getting to drive my 51, I took her for a cruise and tweaked a few things. Adjusted shifter linkage and tightened up some bumps and rattles. The ol' bird needed brakes so i spent the afternoon workin on her car....

 

Finished putting the chassis together. Waiting for the painter to finish the body.

 

GOT TO POR-15 WITH GLOSS TOP COAT ALL THE INNER FENDERS , NOW I GOT POR-15 WITH TOP COAT ON MY HANDS FOR A WHILE. IT WILL BE WELL WORTH IT IN THE LONG RUN. THE SANDBLASTING, I GOT IT DONE LAST SATURDAY. IT WAS SURE A LONG DAY.

 

Spent Saturday at the flea market helping the wife sell some of her old clothes, most of the day was a bust, really slow, oh well.

 

Mowed grass, spread two yards of gravel with my trusty shovel, moved my daily driver into position so I can work on it (its still sitting there) helped a buddy install an invisible fence for his dogs, finally made it into the garage on Sunday to clean up and change the tires on the cragars for my wagon and fixed a couple of mowers that were given to me.

All in all, a good weekend...

 

nothing done watched damn dodgers lose all weekend

 

Went for another try around the block and broke down again.....,my dad has been my tow service last weekend and this weekend.Sucks when it runs fine in the driveway(1000 feet long) and then as soon as I take it to the road I make it 4-5 blocks and it shuts down.I owe my dad some beers and some good`ol Maryland crabs for being "on call" lol all in all I still see it as progress.Maybe next week after working on it all day I will make it 10 blocks lol

 

Raining here, no mowing to do. Besides, we left the Prairie grass and dont have anything but gravel in front of the house!

Got the 32 frame dialed in for the body, 1/2 done, spot on. Get to do the other side tomorrow. Couldnt help myself and mocked up the headlights,fog and grill shell to see...........

 

I redid the exhaust on the T then promptly blew a rear wheel cylinder the next morning. Picked up the wheel cylinder, then went to the Gasser Series event and watched some great racing, got home and fixed the car.

 

Moved my 35 Ford pickup project further out back to make room for a 33 Ford pickup I'm getting on Tuesday.

 

And helped a pal drink some beers and work on his Willys................going through the big D right now, was great to hang with him.

 

Some sand blasting and painting.

 

Hmmm... Went to So-Cal Phoenix's monthly swap and traded some parts to get the right manifold for my modified's 2300cc Ford, Helped organize and attended a meeting to bring a Billitproof show to Phoenix, sanded the engine compartment on my girlfriends Ranchero, finished the kickups for my clients "T" speedster chassis, finished painting the 170 for the girlfriends Ranchero, Had lunch at Rosita's Place and didn't slip into a coma, went to a club Sunday morning breakfast, pulled a bell housing from another clients '63 Dart so I could get measurements to re-order his hydraulic throw out bearing tomorrow, shut down a BMW 5 series on the way there, stopped at a friends house to check out his brake lines (he got them right!) I managed to drive all three of my licensed cars somewhere this weekend, Laid out the steering on my other clients Bantam, and finished the weekend with a damn great pork roast at my parents house. Damn, it's amazing what you can get done when your girlfriend is far away in Hong Kong! No wonder I'm tired...

 

Didn't do much of anything, just helped the wife around the house, and got ready for the kids and our grandson coming over for dinner....aren't the two year olds a hoot? Spoil'em rotten and send them home.

 

fixed some rattles on my pontiac, and geting ready for kulture shock next weekend

 

I've got front end sheetmetal matched together on my wagon for the first time in a long long time.

 

Pulled the Starliner Home... I figured that 8 weeks until Bonneville was long enough and I should get it started if I am driving it there...
Pressure washed it; built a trans mount and motor mount, rebuilt the battery tray for a larger battery, and mocked in the radiator...

 

working out a few bugs!

 

Got the ignition side on my 53 210's inline 235 put back together.

 

I brought this home over the weekend. Pulled the 389 and slim jim tranny and installed a 400/th400 combo.
