Tales of the Truck....part 1

Today Rex was supposed to pick up his 1971 Chev from the paint shop. It has been there for almost a year. When he got there with trailer in tow, he found it was not ready after all. The bed was not bolted on and they could not find the bolds. He got a little impatient(imagine that) and got a little sideways with the owner of the shop. I think he pretty much opened up a can of whoop a** on him. So, anyway, I was going to come home and take a picture of him working on the truck (he has the engine ready to put in), but instead he came home and worked on the mertmobile. It had a heater knob that was broken. You know she will be needing that! Stay tuned for more "tales of the truck".......


Fixing the Mertmoblie

The engine will have to wait for now.
