63 Pinner Hightop

ok, I'm going to attempt to get things done on this new computer. my adaptor to upload pictures threw the kindle is gone south and I having trouble finding another one. So here we go, got the jams painted and the inside of the top frame on the center door. ground down a wad of lead on that right upper door that was causing the door to rub when it was closed. I've been waiting for a few parts to arrive so we can get things back on track. They got her yesterday. took a friend out to lunch in the big city yesterday and looked for that adaptor. Funny, I remember when everything was closed on Veterans Day. Not, it's just another sales day.

had one of those days, "Mother said." They will happen, so we chalk it up to experience. I did finally get the 64 pinner started and moved to it winter home. Messing with the car covers will wear you out. Got the top put together and in place. I carefully considered the way the glass had to go and then put it in backwards. But that's what tomorrows are for, practice today, put in it tomorrow. Additionally, we didn't install the latch first, so we need to attend to that task. It's a lot easier to do with the sash out of the way.

will we did it. got the glass back out in the dark. big power outage today still haven't heard the correct story on it but to went out around noon and back at 6. that assumably is heavy. this time I put a piece of blue tape on the outside. but some time struggling to get it back in and losing the frame on the third try we cracked the corner setting it down to pick the frame up. so, we need a new glass. that old stuff gets brittle. put the rest of the guts into the door shell and started to strip the front door. we need to run to Rapid to get another one cut. so do that tomorrow. miss jack on those short runs. the cat just won't get in the truck. dark a 4:00 now so went in a lit the lamp to wait out the light.

Got the glass up to the glass shop it will be ready Monday. so, we took the front door apart and got it off. hoping the weather will hold long enough for us to get it sand blasted tomorrow they are talking Sunday Monday might get some snow. it's past due we need to get the bugs killed off. but the trip to the glass shop was not a total bust found a piece of plywood as the restore shop for 2 bucks. now we can get the sill for the rear door back on. this has got to be the door in the wreck the tab holding the skin to the frame is broken and the inside flange is tipped way in. we'll see when we get to striping the door.
