Re: 49' Patina bagged in PA

4-13 Sat. So here is my rant on karma. My girl lost her job, so now when I think money problems at an all time low couldn't be worse, they just did. Welder craps out, new one showing up monday, so I had to use my backup. Only good news is I'll have a new welder for free and only one workday setback sorta. Lastly on my way home from a late night this evening, I hit a pothole and blew my upper balljoint. So towed home. There are a slew of other things I could write a book about, but I'll spare ya.

So today, wasn't too happy I had to use my crappy back up welder. and I needed to run some wire to my garage for it anyway since its just 110 and all my 110 power was temporarily run by extension cords. So I got a jump on that today, so soon I'll have the garage fully wired and lit.

All I got done today, which seems like nothing is finish up what I left off on last week. Got the upper trans tunnel done and sides. Just gonna keep the top bolted on for several reasons. Started on the rest of the framing so I can finish up the rest of the tunnel towards the back of the cab. I should have the floor done next weekend. Some panels I'm gonna leave unwelded so I have easier access to things like exhaust, brake, fuel and air lines being ran under cab. Getting some chassis saver soon and some seam sealer. Frame and engine I'm hoping to be done and mated by end of May. Got a slew of things after that and then hoping to be wiring August. Shake down runs by Sept/Oct.

had my 51' out the other day, gotta a bad selenoid I believe, so I just push started it, gotta love manuals. Might just toss a new starter in and use that truck for a while. Everything I own needs work wtf, I seriously can't keep up.
