Spent part of the day getting the back plate installed in the correct position... only had to cut off a couple of tacks in the process
Ross came over to help...
but first we had to run my car trailer over to Max (Kansas Bad Man) so he could haul his old Bonneville use pickup to his grandson about 105 miles away. Yes it is drivable... but the gas tank has a rust hole in it that often leaks gas... I guess when it stops another chunk of rust has moved into the hole...
So Ross and I went over, hooked up the trailer to Max's truck, loaded and tied down the old truck and sent him off to Moline.
Then we went back to my shop... got it sorted out... welded it up while it was easy and tacked it in place.
I'll start welding all the plates in tomorrow.... after I add a few more tacks to the back plate.
Some days you get more done than others
