Re: Rich's Roadster
Looks like you have a nice solid car to start with there. Take your time with it & enjoy the time you spend on it. Maybe get the kids involved.

Re: Paint spots on gas tank
I've had the blushing problem before. With that I usually wet sanded & polished & it looked fine. The tank was painted over a month ago when our weather was warmer but that doesn't mean the humidity...

Re: Paint spots on gas tank

Re: Time to clean the shed out.
I'd like to live next door to you also. That is quite the pile of junk. I would be over every day just to gaze at the junk & maybe get a ride. Really neat Redneck.

Re: 1929 Cowl Lacing
Tom,
Thanks a lot for those pictures. They sure explain things well. I was noticing the bolts that hold the gas tank to the cowl were body color. Do you think this is because of a repaint at one...
