Re: Crusty Rusty Leaky Squeaky 67 Step
Thanks, John!

We've had appointments every day this week except Friday for Dad or the dog which reduces the time available for beating on the bumper. I added a thin strip to the passenger side to close up the gap a bit and welded out some more splices. I've dialed the heat way back and started going much slower which has produced better results. Hole is starting to close up on the driver side. I finally got in touch with the shop that does the spray on chrome and I'm weighing whether to go that route. They only guarantee the work if they do everything from the ground up. Bumpers start at $700 and $85/hr. for bodywork and prep. So I'd probably be looking at over a grand for just the front. I'm starting to think a high gloss silver next to the flat red oxide color on the truck might look pretty dang good.
