Yep, county road 29. 70 easy miles huh? I think anything beyond 2 would start to be the end of my endurance.

Thanks, when I'm not getting much work done, I can at least share in some of the things distracting me.

Took a day off today to finish up the driver side. The biggest problem I've been having is that the filler is hardening way too fast in this heat. I tried cutting back on the amount of hardener, which helped. Very frustrating mixing it up and only having time to lay it on a couple spots and then toss the leftovers. Anyway, that part is done. And I sprayed the bottom side of the radiator support. I have to sand my hood and spray some epoxy on it, and finish the tailgate. Then pull the engine and old radiator support so I can get to the firewall better. Baby steps my friends.
