Random photos of my current build. Installing the panels for gap and body line matching.

Couple random photos, have final blocking primer on the unibody and the doors. Installed the doors to gap and match the lines. I have a little more adjustment to do on the doors, thinking about fitting and matching the fenders. This car is nothing but flat panels and body lines.

Here are a couple of photos of the change of my dash color from red to gray on my current build. First photo is the dash in primer. The other two are the dash in finish color.

A couple random photos of my current build. Car is on a rotisserie and I have finished the third blocking and have the fourth coat of primer on ready for additional blocking. The second photo is the dynamat install from the front firewall to the rear firewall.

Photos of the package tray seal and mock up for rear speakers. Rear firewall is set up with Dynamat on the passenger side and closed cell foam on the trunk side.

I had to change the floorpan in my current build so I saved the 4 speed backer, rewelded it to the new floorpan with 1/4" nuts welded to the backer. I was able to save the original 4 speed hump so I refurbished it and installed i with 1/4" SS machine screws. Below is the process-----

I put some dynamat in the roof of my current build while on the rotisserie.

Remodel 3pt. seat belts in my current build. Installed attachment point above headliner location. I had to modify my Barracuda for the 3pt. belts after the headliner was in-bummer but done now.

Battery relocate in my current build. Battery in the trunk and 2 cables routed to engine bay for install on starter and starter mount bolt.

After many years of Christmases, it is hard to know what to get the wife. I think I got it right this year though with some swag of her (and my) favorite college basketball team. He who ignores the wife's gift at christmas does so at their own peril!

Great story; thanks for sharing! You and the Mrs. are awesome parents.

Not mechanical but---------The company bought me a fishing trip for retirement gift. King salmon fishing trip. Below is the work I did after getting home with the catch.

Not mechanic work but retirement allows me to get on the body/paint on my Comet project. First it is down to bare metal and inspection and cleaning----------- Then a good heavy coat of epoxy primer----------------- Then scuff with 320 to air out and a heavy coat of urethane sandable...

That is almost exactly where my Comet is less the very nice paint booth. I am green with envy! Starting at 6:00 AM in the morning I will shoot my stuff in my driveway. It is hung and prepped and I am looking forward to being done with this stage!

Finally retired and getting on the body/paint on my 65 Cyclone. Today I will hang the fenders, hood and deck for epoxy primer after taking down to bare metal. Below are a couple photos of the doors which I did last fall.

Chocolate eggs and rabbits on Easter week.

We stream most of our viewing now, no commercials at all. We do record some network stuff though.

There are lots of TV shows and movies that couldn't be made/shown today. Some of the early Bond films and others. The PC police would not allow them to be aired. I miss those days. IE "Pussy Galore" cracked me up when wife & I watched it a couple months ago.

My Barracuda is finished as much as it ever will be. It's got all the usual "owner built" defects but it never fails to bring the compliments and conversations that come with it bring my daily driver. I don't show it anymore though for the above mentioned reasons. Too busy with another build anyway.

That's one way, mine was to marry my girl 54 years ago and make a nice life with her supporting my car habit and me supporting her endeavors as well. Right now I am on the hunt for take-off bumper cores for rechroming for my latest build and she helps me remember my parts orders ordered and...

Not on Facebook, not going to join because of her --------------

Hello 911, I’d like to report a murder.

Are you sure we tightened the rod caps-----------------------

Mine deposits money into my "car" account every month and thinks I should go ahead and buy the neighbors 73 challenger even if it is an automatic. My mantra is that the next one has to be a 4 speed manual. I'm going to make another run at the neighbor in a couple months.

Thanks for warning us off.

Ford Focus-------------to be expected-----------just sayin-----------

Pretty subjective, one common theory is that it takes 10,000 hours the work in the field. To me there are many skills and several "guru's" for each.

Hell I don't remember my current phone number.
