Stretch
Hey! There’s no easy button for a body like this!
Last Sunday afternoon a buddy came over and helped me push Agnes into the shop. I had every intention of getting started on her right then and there. Once she was in the garage I was completely overwhelmed with emotions. It was sudden and totally unexpected. It was the first time since Pierre's passing that I felt that way. I didn't even breakdown when I found him. That was the end of my desire to work on her. I went in the house and I guess I don't really do anything for the rest of the day.
Monday morning the desire was back and I couldn't wait to get home from work Wednesday. Wednesday is the first night I didn't have other plans so I started the roof repairs.
Saterday I finished the metal fab part of the roof repairs, sanded the roof, and prepped the roof for filler. Then I got her on stands, dropped the exhaust and transmission, and I'm ready to pull the engine today. Except mother nature said "No work in the garage for you"! We had a hell of a ice storm last night and it's expected to keep going all day and tonight. We have no power and a walk to the dark garage was filled with the sound of trees breaking in the woods around my place. If the power comes back on I'll be out there.
