Where To Go From Here?
Posted on: Tuesday November 6, 2018
Well, it's early November and car shows, cruise nights, parades, and other car related car stuff is just about finished for the season. We've already seen a few flakes of snow so winter storms can't be to far in the future...... SOOOOOOO! What will the winter season in the shop consist of?

Now that everything is done for the Christmas Holidays, I actually had a few hours to spare so quietly hid myself away in the workshop and started the CK's frame.I was able to get the first four pieces welded together ...square and all on the same level axis. Also welded in are the floor suports, bracket for...
