Two days before the fifth Redneck Roundup is to begin and the first day of another of Patman's classes. Some teaching and some eating. I got a little bit done on the speedster and Jim and I shortened the Humvee 2-man cargo divider to be used as a 4-man divider in the new Humvee M1026A build...
It looks like I will be settled down from our Redneck Roundup metal meet in time to attend this event. I have been encouraging Brent to do this again, and am looking forward to it. Can I stake a claim to the parking spot with the shore cord that I have used in the path??
Ed, I looked up the info on the gas tank sealer. It was provided to me from a friend in Grand Rapids, Michigan, who's employer owns the Miami Heat basketball team and the farm team for the Detroit Red Ring Hockey team and has a very large collection of both vintage and contemporary sports cars...
Too bad you were not here to help. You could have mowed our grass as well.
I spent the time checking for leaks at the gas tank, and along the 8ft of gas line and the shut off valve. We also adjusted the throttle linkage where it connects the dual carbs and where it goes thru the firewall...
Ed, I do not remember at this time. A friend of mine from Grand Rapids, Michigan did it for me. I will make an attempt to find the can or get in touch with him

More small steps. I am enthused little more these days as I need to get this done and out of the way for the upcoming Redneck Roundup. Not likely to happen, but it is good motivation. I got the gas tank installed and set into place so that it fits the opening in the tail section, polished the...

I have been told / asked about the 225A Panel Delivery entered in Fine Point at Oskosh event has been sent to the Ford museum. I don't know what to say to those that have asked. Can some one confirm that it is or is not? Thanks.
This event has continued to grow, and I have previously had to limit the attendance to 40 folks, but the demand has been stronger this year and I have decided to expand a little to 50 folks or so. There are 3-4 spaces left for those that may have an interest in learning the basics of metal...
The wife and I have decided to host another of the Redneck Roundups here in Rock Hill, S.C. on April 5th, 6th and 7th. Lunch and the evening meals are included as is sheet metal materials, and I am also expecting to make arrangements to attend the NASCAR Hall of Fame on the following Sunday as...
Fastenal surprised me with a response for a quote to the upper northwest. Palletized crate for four of the customers in this shipment are:
Oregon = $260
Texas = $210
Ohio = $185
Wisconsin = $185
Fastenal has been an important component of being able to acquire one of Peter's wheeling machines...
This fifth shipment of English wheels has arrived here in Rock Hill. This is the second time that a shipment has been held in customs over concerns of the crate material 'issues'. This accounts for 32 of these wheeling machines that have been imported from Australia. They have turned out to be...
