Dave! Put a tarp down underneath that 390! You're messing up the new floor!  Looks great! Best of luck!!

Love knotty pine T&G, our whole house was done in it when I was a kid, even the ceilings.

Modern heating & pluming out of DL, friends of my brother.
I'm sure that Paul B up here would do a nice job.

Can't get him to even call back. That's the bad thing. Need heat soon

Looking good, Dave.
So, how's it feel to be your own man?

How do you cut those big repair panels so they fit so perfectly, that's amazing to me. I have to replace the rusted out bottoms of both front fenders on my "68 El Camino and I'm worried about screwing them up.

A little experience and decent tools make it pretty easy. The cutting on this one was a combination of plasma torch, Milwaukee 3 tooth nibbler and cut off wheel on grinder. I step flanged the top seam and hid the cut right on the top bend. You cant tell it's had a new panel from inside the trunk, and you'll never know from the outside once it's done. Looking good, Dave.
So, how's it feel to be your own man? Feels damn good.

Nice, Dave.
I may have missed it earlier, but is this project yours or your first client?

Nice, Dave.
I may have missed it earlier, but is this project yours or your first client? This first car is for...... My mama. Lol! Not kidding, she wanted to be the first client so I found this car for her. Its a South Dakota car.

Off and running! Shop is looking great, Dave! Next time I get up to Manitoba, I'm bringing an armful of stainless rifles along with a couple of boxes of beer and we're gonna put that blasting cabinet to good use.
