Mel.... I totally agree about sanding bondo. When he puts it on...he puts like 10 times too much...then was leaving me to sand it. I protested. Made him sand off the majority of it with the air operated inline sander. Then I took over. He's told everyone that I fired him from body work. I mixed what bondo I needed put on in thinner layers and it really cuts down on having to sand so much.

Wars...it's a 27 Ford Model T Tudor Coupe.

I can't wait for the interior work to start. That's my department. I get to pick out the fabric for the seat covers...and make them. Then I get to do fabric on the inside walls of it. I did finally talk him into a back seat for the thing instead of it just being a big box in the back. Told him the wiener dogs had to have somewhere to ride hehe. It's gonna be fun work.

Took the ugly black headlights off yesterday and sanded them again....another coat of primer....cuz they need to match the car. Green and red...with a chrome ring. Got them all ready for paint. Next will be working on the doors.

Mr T Model appologizes Miriam.....it's more the fact that Gary's dad is now feelin up to gettin out and about. And we've been taking him with us to go work on the car nearly every day. He doesn't do anything...just sits and watches. But at least he's out of the house.

(MM and I usually text back and forth thru out the day....but I've been so busy with the car that I have neglected my texting lol) You know I love and miss ya MM.

So when the T Model is finished...you'll hafta be writing notes to "Dear Ms. 1969 Chevy Stepside" etc etc....cuz that's MY truck...and it's next in line for a restore job. So I help out where I can with his car....in hopes of gettin it finished faster so we can move on to my truck. ;) Ya know...gotta give a lil to get a lil. That sorta thing.

My poor lil ole 69 Chevy ain't perdy at all. But I'll try to get some pics of it and post for ya.

And yes....Thank the Lord that he's doing better. Just gotta get him past all the nausea from radiation so he can go back to eating normal. He keeps loosing weight. And he doesn't need to be loosing. Needs to gain. Hopin and prayin that he'll be able to eat good when the radiation is out of his system. Took his last treatment last friday.
