    I sure see the list of folks for a convoy - but I sure have not seen any info from Andy about any details of what you folks are getting yourself into and possibly not out of !!!! This detail was to be handled by Andy as it was per his request if any help could be forwarded - now we're asking...

    WC-51 Restoration or Bust!!

    Not me - there is still hope he comes to his sense's and does not make a candy cutter WC just like everyone else has. Ya all give up to easy. If TWM would do it - think of how many others would follow in his footsteps to do what is right. That's worse than putting ketchup on French fries.

    PB - I have hinted to DH - directly invited them down - you name it and I have tried it. He would feel like he was at home down here and I am sure they would have a blast - he could judge the Ron Flip A Burger Contest as well. He is hiding in limbo up in the Northern Country waiting for drone...

    Tin Medic - I do not care what PB pm's me about you - your a pretty sharp fella to notice that. I have noticed when I posted pics in the past some have nit picked them to death (NO I have not fixed my electrical box in the garage for lighting either). BUT - IF you notice that last 2 foot of...

    You waited this long - be sure you keep a build documentary as you go along with the work on it. Some day you'll dig that out and have its full story in you hands. Priceless.

    Up with the birds this morning - The entire top roof needs to get into bare metal primer today - good 80 grit sanding as its already washed - new Elect Kacher pressure washer arrived yesterday. I gave the old once a decent burial and like a good soldier I stuck the pressure handle and wand in...

    Before PB brought it up - one of the newly mounted tires sprung a leak so it was singled out on the pass side rear. Pb is getting it handled in Columbus to make sure there are no further leaks. Other than that - I hope for really good things tomorrow to post up and maybe a few shocking...

    NO - Kent was throwing me under the bus first thing this morning with Deb - called her up to talk to me thinking I was taking the day off work work - not K18 work - but what I meant was I was taking a break from K18 work. Like I could ever take a day off work work for a stinkin vacation day anyhow.

    Starting my 5 ton crew cab project

    Just a note - do not put anything acid under a 2k surface. If you have the deep imbedded rust out the bare metal 2k primer will take care of killing any oxygen getting to the rest. With anything acid underneath 2k it will not adhere. Many forums like SPI will advise the same.

    Zout is giving himself his Birthday Day off - might clean up the garage a little but nothing more than that. Get onto the roof tomorrow if it does not rain. All the sites I belong to know it was my birthday - go figure. Computer generated

    PB has a perfectly good camper that only needs a full suspension now and a complete rear end (did someone mention running off road on the way to the GA RALLY last year) that would have been a good candidate for the K. I have been searching high and low and it appears these K19 trailers are non...

    Ah maybe PB got his hopes up too high - I really cobbled up the rear box tonight. My vent was plugged on my gun and shot primer all over me - ahhhh guess what color I am in epoxy. And I had that Sata gun soaking as well. Anyhow - got all the lower than drip rail done on the box and it really...

    I sent PB a couple links today of the K18 & K19 duty during WW2 at Wake Island. I do not know if he got a chance to check them out - but every time I touch hands on the K or his previous WC I just listen and pay attention to these units talking to me of their past history which makes me hit the...
