well not much to report,the last week or so has been all upside down.i got roped into repairing a rotten Buick that belonged to a family member,i spent 5 days welding a new bottom in a car that wasn't worth my time,then last weekend,we were getting ready to go away for the weekend,the phone rang at 6:00 am Saturday,my wife's mother on the phone,my father-in-law had had a stroke and was in the hospital.needless to say we didn't get anywhere,my wife trying to get a flight home but couldn't get out til Monday,so Monday,in a storm,i drove her to the airport.about 3 hours from here,then delayed flights and on and on.anyway he's doing well and has been back home now for a day or two.my wife will fly home on the weekend so i'm back to work on my truck.i have the patch i made and welded in the pass side done,waiting for the bodywork part.today i made a patch and got it fitted into the gas door hole on the drivers side and a bunch of moldings off.tomorrow we burn welding wire.
