Barge on Budget Motor machine shop pics

For now not much action on the car itself,but parts are being gathered and collected.I will have to catalogue all the schtuff I got spread out in the Boat House.Plus a parts car will be here Monday and must be de-boned and outa my driveway before the neighbours complain.

I am taking holidays Monday for a week to sort my mess out.

Ray will be over Wednesday to finish up some small welding spots (no pun intended).

After that I my game plan is clean up the belly of the BoaB. Epoxy primer and paint.Then I can start installing the gas tank Hotrodnwillie donated to the project.Then the rear axle can be refurbished and installed.

I am hoping to reach my goal to have her back on tires by Christmas

I cannot set a finished date as of yet but two years is not unrealistic.

It's been two years already,but the real work did not start til last fall-just a year ago.

Cheers and it is great to be a part of the Mob!!

Mobby bring donuts Krispy Kreme please!!!

 

Ray and I are just a couple of amateurs having fun with an old C and all the toys...tools available at our disposal LOL.

The more obvious changes are coming....say tuned..

Last night I tested the sending unit hotrodnwillie donated to the BoaB.It can be soldered up to stop the leak.I used my ohm reader and it does work,so in theory my guage should read what's in the tank.

I have a lot to do in a short time,and the only way to do it is get my ass away from this pooter...

 

Actually it is my sister donor car,2 door

My good friend Shawn and I towed her back home.I bought it a few months back but until now had a way to get her home.

Look at that face,she knows she's doomed..
