Stop in for a cup of coffee

Yeh, the look could work nice, but a lot of open space. Maybe some heavy 1/4" wire mesh set back and do the screen over it that actually looks black. Set it up so you can swap the screen when it gets dirty.

Yeah, 1/4" mesh would work great to keep the stones out of the radiator/condenser and still allow air to flow through without blocking too much of it... :thumblef:
 

Sorry for the delay. I just came back from combined Easter/birthday celebration with the inlaws 50 yards up the street.

I made a little amateur Ddaddy attempt to get a grille like that into a pic of a '74 grille I found online. Failed miserably. Halfway through I thought it looked like it will look good when you're done.
 
Those are some good looking crabs! I used to catch them all the time during the Summer when my Dad had his house on Long beach Island. Since we sold it a few years ago, I only get to go crabbing when I'm down there on vacation for a week each year. I also try to do some Fluke fishing too.

Here is some of last years catch...(I bought the Lobsters)

Not too fond of crab. Lobster, on the other hand ...
 

Love me some snow or king crab.

Yum... Here are some pics of crabbing with my Very Redneck buddy Billies Rig. We call him Joe Dirt. Notice the food on the dash grill !!

That is some epic redneck **** right there, Mitch!

I'd love to try King crab, Mike. We can get it here but it's imported and we've yet to find the funds to invest in some ...

That's awesome! All business, no frills...but the critical stuff is all there...including dashboard burgers cooking!
 
man - what a great day.. 60's and sunny, pork loin on the grill, amazing homemade mac-n-cheese, au gratin potatoes, baked beans.. you know the drill. Passed on the bevies - driving duties and all... no bickering, 2 little girls (3 & 4) and a bounce house and "uncle Mike" picking them up and tossing them back into it - pushing them down and bouncing them on the floor - such a riot... and they just kept coming back for more.. :D I had so much fun I forgot to take pictures!
 
Actually got off my fat *** and out of my vodka induced coma and did a little work today. . Not much but it is progress. Got my starter all cleaned up, extensive parts washer time, and cleaned up my fan shroud. . Now if i can just get starter parts and my radiator back...

Sounds like fun. And no bickering! Good outing...
 
it was a good day. hey, don't use that starter, don't use that starter, don't use that starter - seriously, buy a mini!!!

Mini is on order. I'm just enough of a douchebag to want to put and old one back together.. about 28 bucks in parts.. it'll be cool sitting on a shelf..
 
Whats up left coaster? Just relaxing with a chilled beverage here. Got my work done for today.. how's wall-building going?
Wall building is going good. got first row and footing in today. That is the hardest course. If you mess this row up the rest of the wall will be hard to make look correct. It is hard work, mixing concrete, moving block, filling cement into blocks...

Good to hear. Sounds like a buttload of work to me. Out here in the flatlands, we dont really understand walls!
 
nice - I was starting to think you were going to stare and beer it away... (same as blow it off) :D
