Well I am still lurking in the shadows here, working full time I don't get much time to work on anything and the weather in Indiana has been 4 seasons every week so it rains every time I try to get something done. Very frustrating to say the least.
Anyway figured I'd give an update on how things are going. I painted the brown truck flat black, red rims, white roof, mexican blanket seat, then found out the head was cracked and the rust was worse than I thought so I sold it. The other truck got new rims and tires again after being repaired from the Hyundai hitting it. New bumper and brackets and it's good as it ever was. Also found a different topper on Facebook so that's also different now. Still driving it daily.
Also did a little paint under the hood.
And got these waiting to go on.
And since I am spending more money on fuel than I'd like I spent a little tax return money on something a little more fuel efficient. A 1989 Mercedes-Benz 190E project (sorry for upside down pics phone is acting weird)
This 1989 Benz has been sitting for 7 years in a garage but is in very good shape, no rust, no sludge in the engine, no cracks in the dash, just needs a fan clutch and a tune up, fluids flushed, probably tires and brakes, and a few other things but I am excited to have such a great car.
*correction 1989 Benz not 1990*
