Re: Lurker OrrieG Progress Pics

Saturday was a good day. Went to Emmett swap meet and car show and scored the water pump pulley I needed for $5. When I got back home, picked up the grandson so he could help a little. Last week he mentioned to my wife that he might want to learn some auto stuff. I gave him a quick shop safety class (eyes, ears, fumes and hands) then turned him loose on the wire wheel to clean up the pulley. After that we painted and installed it. Then had him clean off the turn signal trim, needed laquer thinner to get old paint over spray off.
Finally let him buff out the big parts so he could see how a little work turns crud to bling. Here are some photos of him and the pulley. I hope it sticks with him, I enjoyed the company and fact I got twice as much done! Today just stripping paint off the grill insert and paintingt the inner turn signal lamp holders.
