Yes. The boring, monotonous work of grinding, sanding, smoothing and painting continues! But, these will be the last major rust issues I will have to deal with that can be viewed externally. Goal was to make Laguna Seca on the 19th/20th. That's not happening because the motor in our dragster is tired and needs to be redone. That means finding an iron 392 hemi, prepping it and building it. Since my partner broke his leg on the inaugural run of our Fuel Altered, all race car things are on hold. Yeah, long story. Either way, I hope to have my work done in the next two weeks so I can start cruising again here real soon. Plus, I still have the AC unit to install where I can, hopefully, have a cool summer. Especially for my better half. Maybe she will even want to drive it now and again!
Oh, and I got the tubing bender assembled at work. I'm getting the itch to make some rear seats. I'm thinking I might want to make the third seat reversible. For two reasons. One, that's where my partner launches from when we push start the dragster. Someone stays with the dragster while I move the push car to a different location that doesn't block the view of the dragster for the fans. To date, anyone who has been in the cargo area just kinda rolls around back there. And two, if we take this thing to the drive in moving pictures show, two lovebirds can use the seat to watch a movie. Yeah, it probably won't be my two kids. More like me and wifey!
