Re: 48 Burb, bagged, 5.3, 20 year wait
Guys-
Really appreciate the words of encouragement. My closest car buddy lives over an hour away so we don't usually get much shop time together. Really good friend stopped by the shop Saturday (we use to build cars together 30+ years ago) and he doesn't get it anymore.
"What, you started on another one?" "What color are you going to paint it?" "Whadd'ya mean you might just drive it like this?" Blank blink blink stare...
Anyway the lift is great and was a 50th birthday present from the wife....wish it would have been a 40th. Always knew a lift would make things easier and until this one came along I didn't really understand until I experienced it myself.
Didn't want to leave the 'Burb dangling all week so we placed it on the body cart. The cart would be overkill for one project and since I have more vehicles on the list it is worth it. Will be real useful to drop the two front mounts, slide the cross member back and support at the rockers while I replace the rusty front metal.
Grandsons were helping today.
