It’s been way too cold to do anything on the old gal. My garage is built into a hill with concrete walls on three sides of the building. The concrete acts as a moderator so temperature changes are very slow. It’s been near 20 degrees Fahrenheit inside the garage for the last two months, and it takes a full day heating with my 18,000 btu gas heater to get it to comfortable enough to work on the truck and that is only about 40-45 degrees. The concrete does have its good points as it also stays cool in the summer.

Needless to say, I haven’t worked on the truck in over two months. I’ll restart in June after the spring cleanup around the yard.
