finished the stepside
well the stepside is finished and gone back to its home in tenn. i had a great time building it and i think it turned out pretty well. son-in-law was tickled to death so while they were here we took it and my 54 ford to a car show only a couple of hours after we got it back together. guess what? we both won a top 25 trophy! it couldn't have turned out better. besides winning we had a great time at the show just hanging out together. drove home in the pouring rain and with the vacuum wipers on the ford it was interesting to say the least. so now i will get back to the bodywork on the 63 chevy. i'm having a ball. until next time

spring fever
well the seasons have changed and i am up to my usual antics. trying to see how many of these warm days i can spend in the shop. i'm having a ball doing what i love to do. the last month or so i have taken a break from my chevy project to help my son in law get his stepside truck redone. i promised him a couple of years ago that i would paint it and it somehow turned into a big rebuild--lol. i'm having a blast working on it and should be finished in the next couple of weeks. i'll post a couple of pix for your consideration. then i will be back to the bodywork on the chevy and getting started on my 54 ford coupe. boy this retirement stuff is alright. until next time.
