Day 23 Project Iron Wolf

22 April 2008
This is the fifth day that I have been working on the body work. I now know why it cost so much money to get a car painted. This is a tough job. I am very glad that this body is in great shape.
I have two of the panels about 60 % done. I'm glad to report that there is only about an 1/8" of bondo at the thickest.

Hood. The black paint that was sprayed on to protect the body did a great job. The bad thing is this stuff is a pain to get off. I think they sprayed a rubberized undercoating on the whole truck.


A little more and the hood will be ready for the glaze.

Had to put this picture in. It is a humming bird in her nest. She is in the tree next to our house and looks down at me working. Very cool.

Day 22 Project Iron Wolf

21 April 2008
After a few weeks crawling in and out of my attic trying to get my 240 volts wired to my garage; I finished on the 19th but had to fly on the 20th. So today I was able to burn metal. Thanks Jeremy, (my neighbor) for helping me wire my garage.

More welding.

One down, seven more to go.

Two down, six to go.
