bread and butter

[John ED Renstrom]

had to break down and do a bread and butter job. got to hurry as the rain is coming Monday and I can't get this thing in the garage. it's a little new for me to work on but you got to do what ever to keep the doors open. can't do fun stuff every day.

You gotta take the stuff like this to pay the bills sometimes. Looks like it is going good so far.

From the looks of the first photo, Ed really is playing demolition derby out there. He doesn't even bother to show the front end of the '66 because there's probably no damage!

Ed..... you did a great job on the repair, however, you are going to need to do better on the paint matching if you expect any repeat business from this customer...

Was Pookie driving at the time?

what can I say. I did discover that a 109 inch stretch is really hard to back up. so demo derby is out. can't turn in reverse worth a darn. the rain came early today. my garage is 26 feet deep the car is 25 1/2 feet long. had to do the farm truck trick but we got it painted. is this a better match Paul? but to answer Steve no mookie doesn't dirty his paws with driving. he is a driven dog. likes to ride in the back. this one belongs to my dutch uncle that ranches in the Badlands. so when he asked I could not turn him down. thought we could sneak it in before the weather hit. we were able to find the used parts. the yard charged him 40 bucks if I went up and took them off. as the bumper cover is over 300 alone it was quite a savings for him. he'll have less then 600 in this repair and I'll make a payment on the Honda. all in all I'll have around 10 hr in it counting the 2 in the yard. lost a couple days on Jim's and didn't get the 73 jammed. but it helped get threw on more month. we'll let it set up then buff and put it back together so they can have it Friday when they come down. different car to drive but a easy one to ride in. still rather have a 6 door. crawling into and out of the back is to much work
