As always the metal work is top notch. I wish you had made two fire wall/trans tunnels as I could use it for my TW Power Wagon conversion

Haven't spent much time on this in the last week or two. I had promised my wife I would do the baseboards in the house in march. Well I was almost out of march so figured I had better get it done. Of course it was a 2 piece baseboard she wanted so it was 300LF x 2 of base. Very sore knees on this guy!

It's done now though so I should start making some slow progress again, thanks to Oliver I was able to determine that some 2nd Gen pedals should work for this application. I had a auto set and was able to dig the burnt clutch and brake pedal out of the burnt 2nd Gen I used for the transmission. After a sand blast, paint and new bushings they were ready to go. Also coated the console with a rubberized rockerguard.

Next project will be fabricating a electric windshield opener...

I am glad I could help you out with a few measurements.
The pedals look great, you just need to dig up some pedal covers now.

Your saw horse / paint station looks JUST like mine...Or did you borrow it for the photo shoot?

Hey Oliver,

I told you it was him. I just knew it.

Oliver called me a few weeks back and said that someone had stolen his big old red barn that he had on his property. He came back from a trip to Home Depot with a buddy of his, and his barn was GONE !


Gyman Stole it !


knew it all along......

I just wish he would of finished putting the metal on before I nabbed it!

The barn is 110yrs old this year, still straight and sound as the day it was built. The farm I live on is my family's homestead property. I bought it from my grandparents estate about 10yrs ago. On The upper loft doors I built grandpas old cattle brand "Diamond L" into them

No need, you can now get them right from the factory, 11 bucks and change each from Toliver CJD in Corsicanna Tx.

Part number is 5200 9562

Thanks!! I'll see what the local *********** wants for them.

Well I got the electric windshield to work pretty well, will need to do final adjustments after I get the new weatherstripping on. Have a look at the videos below. Also got a bracket made for the junkyard hydroboost then cleaned and painted it. Got the rest of the firewall holes done except for the steering column and the heater.

I bought a vintage air unit but they sent me the wrong one so I need to exchange it for the right one. Also got the pedal assembly figured out and installed temporarily. Started to make the gauge mounts but ran out of weekend
