Default Restoration of a Chevrolet WA

Well, you know there is always stuff to do... After getting the engine running, I have to remove the oil pan and take care of a leak up front... previous owner loved silicone and just gobbed it in there instead of doing the job right!

Then I move into the brakes... Trying to find a 18" brake hose for the rear, since a 16-1/2 that supposedly goes there is too stretched out...

Wow, the radio collection sounds interesting, but not so much the cleaning part; though necessary to keep the boss happy!

I'm just making a box with 2x6 lumber and 2" vertical steel pieces to resemble a military box... I have nothing to go by except one photo, and no place to get information, so I'm just making happen what I can with what I have...Sorry about the wooden pallet, it was my workbench and forgot to remove for the photo!

I say you lucked out with the rim situation on the truck, I had no option but to have my wheels made fror $1200 for the set...

Well, that is true computer talent; I turn it on and do a google search, maybe crop some photos... Like the idea of doing much more, but have no patience for 3 steps equal one move, line or action...

Can only dream to have a barn/shop like the one you have... Someday!
