Re: Project Grande Slam: Coley's Hot Rod Shop

Dad and I both are up to our eyeballs in Home remodling projects. I am about to start hanging drywall in mine (complete gut and re-do, moved a wall, new electrical, tile shower, moved a jacuzzi tub, new plumbing, .. yeah. ALL of it..

Dad has put hardwood floors in, new tile in the kitchen now starting his bathroom.

The next step for my GMC will be front wheels. I am saving some $$, but I need to kinda hold off and make sure Eric's mom is ok. He's going to help me get them but I don't want to bug him at this stage. I need a couple more paychecks to build the fun money back up anyway. So, .. then 4-6 MORE weeks wait time for the wheels to be cut.

PB stuff should be here soon I hope. We still have brake lines, the Wilwood Prop valve and MC to install, etc.

The inner bedsides need to be sanded, worked and primed / painted. They both have some minor pitting at the bottom edge that will need to be fixed but a friend of mine quoted $450 for both of them, cleaned painted and ready to go back on. I just might let him do them.

We're getting REALLY close, but I will say it probably won't be long after I finish it the truck will be up for sale. I kinda need to focus the money on my family and the IVF route. I'm going to keep it through the summer and maybe August or so put it up for sale. I don't want to, I just kinda need to.
