1948 Buick sled

This is just a quick vid. of a Buick sled I've been ironing out,.
I'll be posting some pix of what was needed to get it to this point and follow it up with pix of it finished.
from here the car will get block sanded again and urethane primer applied,.I will be edging out the hood,.deck,.and door jams in black and getting it back so that the motor and trans can be put be in,. I'll get it back and do a final block sand and then its on to a base clear Black paint job,.color sand and buff,.
The fit and finish on this with some fresh black skin should be nothing less then SEXY,....
check back in,.
Thanks.

Hate mail

Something stupid but wanted to share,..


     after years of hate raining down on my poor mail box from kids / people that have nothing better to do,. I finally decided to put up a new one,.not that I had much of a choice in the matter,. the old one wasn't doing a very good job holding my mail any longer,.. so I went down to the hardware store grabbed a black mail box,.and with the aid of some white one shot,. my pounce tool,. and some other assorted hand tools. my mail carrier is much happier,..and I got to do something fun for my self ,.as small as it was,..
