Shop Time w/T.W. Friends

Had to wait for the sun to come around for the full lime goodness effect.

 

I miss the AEC world!

3 to 2 for the good guys today. Had one get away after a considerable investment. It was his lucky day.

Big male and typical female

 

Barn clean out except work bench moving out tomorrow

 

Nice job

 

Well, the sun shines on a dogs @$$ now and then it seems.

The light over my kitchen sink quit, it is the recessed type with two 24" fluorescent lamps. I found an LED fixture at Slowes that fit inside the old fixture and allowed the glass to go back on after I took the fluorescent parts out.
Like this:


Rough working over the sink and under the cabinet.
Even Mrs Green noticed the improvement, she asked if I painted the wall.

I also found that someone previous to me didn't understand the black wire, white wire thing... Replaced 3 worn out receptacles, one was wired backwards along with the old light.

 

So, my wife gave me a 10 yo cell phone and told me to dispose of it. It's 9:15pm so I decided to shoot it with my bb gun to keep the noise down. 25 yards and aiming for dead center. Waiting on my deadeye neighbor to fix my sights lol.

 

nice, could probably sell a few dozen kits if you were so inclined

 

Apparently I got to the auction at just the right time this afternoon. I saw Danny "the count" Koker from the tv show Counts Kustom's as well as the rest of his crew promoting a Mustang for charity. Also saw Adam Pitale from Adam's Polishes and the man himself Craig Jackson. I waved and smiled, but I didn't take any pictures. I'm sure they get sick of the attention after a while. Big spenders tonight. This Thunderbird sold for $495k and the bidders were in the upstairs booth behind me. You try not to stare, but you wonder what they do for a living. The driver's facial expression's say it all.

This Nova had really nice paint. This dude bought it from someone who had done the rotisserie restoration and then he added the weld wheels and the ls3. Sold for 80k I think.



The teal paint and Boyd wheels on this vette really caught my eye. Very healthy big block all polished out.

 

Some others, A 1938 Packard, custom 32 roadster and a couple of trucks. I tend to look over anything that catches my eye very carefully in the staging lanes before they go up for auction. Even laying on my stomach to see under the car. I think some of the bidders take it seriously thinking I'm a buyer. I might have drove the price up on a few cars this week.

 

Goodnight everyone

 

It is always morning someplace.

 

100 yds, .223, same problem, except I don't have a neighbor to fix it.

 

If you're into that, they're all yours!

 

Pretty hard for anyone but the one pulling the trigger to adjust the impact point.

I thought those .223 rounds would really mess up the phone what did the exit look like?

Having never shot a phone.

 

Morning all have a great day

 

Good morning friends! Yawl have a great day and an awesome weekend

 

Good morning, sir. Enjoy your day!
