Re: Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you also.
I see you also use a plastic garage. I layed down some 8 mil plastic and fold the edges up to meet the steel bar running around the lower perimeter, then covered the plastic with free used carpet. This keeps out the ground moisture and makes it much nicer inside, and you can slide under the car and stay clean. Mine has sloping walls, which I don't like, and wouldn't buy them again. Here's a picture of my carpet. |

Merry Christmas to all. And, Tom, that wreath looks perfect on the nose of that Studebaker!

Re: Merry Christmas
Thanks Bud, I borrowed my friend's wreath for this picture and liked the way it fit the grill.
BTW, here's a tip for straightening bumpers. If you look at the front bumper on the driver's side, just on the outside top edge past the bumper guard, you will see in the reflection that the end of the bumper was pushed back slightly. I blocked the front wheels, hooked an old tire over that end of the bumper, then used a chain through the tire and tied to a cable ratchet. I pulled the tire very tight and clamped on the bow next to the bumper guard and got the bumper back straight. I wasn't sure this would be enough to pull the bumper straight, but it worked out great. I used a giant C clamp and a couple wood blocks to squeeze the bumper where it was spread. |

Re: Merry Christmas
Likewise a happy holiday to everyone and thanks for all the fish. Thanks also for all the great information and advice over the last year.
Jim, hope you got your other project finished so you can get back to work on the As.

Re: Merry Christmas
That is the coolest vehicle. I would to take that to the farm Coffee Shop. These farmers would flip their Bibs over that one.
