Thanks guys! I call it "doing manly things". In my white collar world I'm surrounded by hormonal, menopausal, pre-pubescent, pubescent women/girls and metro-sexual, mani/pedi sporting, bluetooth wearing, tablet toting, girlie men. Every now and then I just gotta get grungy, sweaty, nasty, hark a loogi, scratch nads, pass gas, see/feel horsepower, torque, chrome, and do things that makes me feel like a man again. :wink:

AMEN! Have a great day off today, buddy. Looking forward to the productive progress report! I wish I was able to do the same instead of sit at my desk doing girly-man work! :lol:

Still lagging way behind you, Tyler! :thup: , Heirloom! Got an early start this morning. A little chilly so I loaded up the paint booth and stuck my portable heater in to warm it up to a toasty 75*. The wall o' parts...

Two coats of Rust Encapsulator and a coat of high gloss Chassis Black and it's warmed up enough to hang 'em out to dry. Needed the paint booth to spray some epoxy primer on my F600 gauge panel and serpentine alternator bracket. So that's the hood hinges, cab mount hardware, door hinges, brake pedal bracket, brake booster brackets, drag link and tie rods all painted. The tranny hump cover didn't get gloss black so it's done and put up already. That's it for "man time". Back to the daily grind tomorrow.

Paint's dry! Still gotta do some sanding on my gauge panel and alternator before color but at least it's all protected.
