    Re: Gonna take a few weeks to work on MY STUFF

    Sounds like that kinda language strechs all the way to East Texas or farther on the Coke thing. Calling it a "pop" annoys me and I think I was visibly laughing at the guy who called it a "soadie".

      "Pop" is correct (to me, anyway - Michigan roots). "Soda" has a scoop of ice cream in it, as any fool knows. My daughters grew up in Jacksonville, FL and all pop is "Coke" - that one's weird. "I'd like a Coke. Pepsi would be good". Huh??!!

      I guess it's all in what your ears grew up with.

        Spent most of the weekend roughing in two steel front fenders for my GS. I didn't have any with out rust on the bottoms. Thought about just fiberglassing them and then decided to weld a patch on the bottoms.

        Great weather here this weekend so pulled everything outside to work on.



        Glad I am a pack rat....Started looking for a piece of thin sheet metal and had nothing in the shop. Then remembered I kept the old fender from Celeste's nova. Worked out perfect for patch material.




        Boy I am glad that part is done. Now have to decide if I am gonna use a hood that had a factory Buick hood tach on it or a regular GS hood.


        I quit for the day ...heading home to check out NHRA race.

                    Thanks we have allot fun making simple stuff and besides, welding chain links together all day is good practice !

                    (During a liquidation of a manufacturing facility a few years ago I got a barrel of new chain from the maintenance dept. So it has been the project material of choice for sometime now.)

                    This was a project went astray ! It started out to be a couple of crossed guitars and a TCB script. This was to go on the face of a steel gate I had built for the drive of my storage building at home. Celeste just kept building them. Gifts for friends, she laced one with some glittery ribbon or shoe strings or something for a wall hanging. We talked about stringing one with lights for Christmas but never got around to doing it.

                      Well, it's almost that time of the year again and sounds like a great idea.
