Call me crazy - Ranchero's (again)

[Luva65wagon]

Here's a couple random pics. The passenger side flare froma different angle and with a little more welding done. Trying to get all the pieces tacked on before I run out of gas.

The console is out of another "round body Ford"... the Taurus model that looks like the designers were being trained to use a Bezier curve. I'm going to dye it red on the top half.

Dude you are making me feel bad. I didn't realize how bad those both were.. Let me know if you need any more of the sheet metal laying around. I have some good metal left on the parts wagon but the Ranchero is pretty much gone. I might have to do some free coating for you to make up for the poor shape of the cars??

[Luva65wagon]

Ah - don't feel bad. Things are working out just fine. The way I see it - it was bad enough to allow me to be creative with it. And learn more about the construction of a Falcon than anyone has need to know.

But I dare say, you probably know just about as much by now.

Ain't that the truth.. I like the look of the fenders the little wedge piece you put in will set it off just enough people will wonder what you did.
The inside floor area looks fantastic, almost makes me want to do another one?? Can't wait to see it done.

Update .... Update... Is it time for paint???

[Luva65wagon]

It's time to lay some filler (which I HATE doing), but not quite ready for paint. I've moved into the bed and am engineering the closing in of that area. Lots of pondering how best to do it with stone knives and bear skins (quiz: Where did this quote come from?)

I am at it every day, even if I don't post anything, but the pictures I took of the finished drivers side looked oddly similar to the passenger side.

I did all the work underneath too, so I can begin undercoating all that now. If only I could clone myself... share a beer with myself...

[doghows]

Either clone yourself or Gene, or both?? Glad to hear it is moving forward. I try to play a little every night myself but the list is soooooo long...

I just love the smell of bondo in the morning ....just don't like sweeping it off the floor... jh

Gene has been pretty tied up this month, so haven't seen him much over the past few weeks - other than all the help he provided at the swap meet. That's OK though, he's got projects too numerous himself. I am starting to miss him though... [sniff]

List? You have a list? That's your problem!

[doghows]

My list is a mental one. Or am I on the mental list??? Its the honey do list that is killing me.
What are your plans for the weekend?? Saturday might be a bust but maybe Sunday?? I am closing the shop on Monday so I have that extra honey do day.... I will keep you posted. (that almost sounded like a song?)
By the way I give up on the quote. Lets see if anyone gets it...

[Luva65wagon]

I think we are both mental, but I digress...

I am open all weekend - it will be a 3-day get as much done as I can weekend. Make it a honey, lets go to Seattle do list.

Google is your friend...

[doghows]

I agree, it is a sickness.. I think I will shoot for Sunday that way I can fulfill my obligations at the Casino car show on Saturday, get parts on Sunday, and Honey Do on Monday??? Damn forgot to fit working on the car in there somewhere again...
