The Ford Barn

Thanks again Pete, and I bought another gun rack for the starboard side so I can continue to accerorize with my favorite junk. I found I need to carry a shorty step ladder in order to tie stuff down on the roof rack. Maybe that should hang on the inside of one of the barn doors. Oh great, more brackets to fabricate. I'm in a funny place right now, where the 'old' younger Gary would be dragging home another project, but the 'funny place' is that I don't have a vehicle I want to part with, and four already seems a lot to care for. Therefore I am planning to continue working on the ones I already have, and sort of finishing them. With an emphisis on the sort of.
