Good luck with the new project.  Maybe no $ for parts but you'll have a nice place to be alone with your new friend and get to know each other.   8)

You do have a ponderin' chair for your new shop don't you?

Been to darn busy at the salt mines to be doing much at all since returning from vacation.

However finally got the first video story completed.  There's a 3 DVD set covering the NSRA Nats.  Interesting to see how I wasted my time at that event.  There's about 15 minutes from Wed (we arrived early) Thurs shows us driving in then nnuthin until we drive out.  Got about h15 minutes of the Tursday night cruisin action, then some early morning arrivals on Friday with not a lot shot during the day, colsing out disc 1 with about 30 mins of the crusin action after dark.

The next two discs are all Saturday (provided you exclude ten or so mins depicting the trip 'home' to St Louis on Sunday) starting at 0 Dark 30 again and recording the cars rolling in.  There's a few gaps in time but I managed to get some swap meet action, a little Fairgrounds misbehaviour and even some RRT activity with the action ending as the last vehicles roll out and the fairground empties.

Still got some tidy up editing to do but the picture quality is brilliant (new high tech camera was well worth the silly price) so now all I need is to make a few copies for my friends.

Oh, I finally fixed that damned fuel leak on the '33.  So yesterday I got to detailing the brackets for the King Bee Fog Lamps I dragged home from the US.  The look kinda cool on the old gal, in a resto sort of way.   :wink:

Later yesterday I managed to get some striping done for the first time in ages.  To help cart home the spoils of my vacation I picked up this neat folding metal 'tool tote' at of all places Costco (One f their big tool boxkes would have been nice to drag home also but it would not qualify as 'carry-on' baggage).  Anyhow I started painting some lines on it.

And I did some work on one of the models that's been sitting in limbo for months.

Today (Sunday) the beat goes on.

Didn't go to Cruisin' the Coast, so I have been watching the camera views on mstraffic.com to see some of the cars every now and then. Sure saves money on gas.

Got a cruise-in Saturday night that several of us may go to.
