Haha Well i like the snow, used to 6 months of it. We usually get 6-8 feet. Back in 08 and 09 we got more than 10 feet. we are pretty high up and we get a really bad winter every 10 years around and we were like 3 years over do, so we got hammered pretty bad. :lol: haha just the cold sucks. We got about a foot and three inches. 8) Only if i had my snowmoble still :( olwell.

Got my wirin threw the fire wall, sanding sanding! 8) cant wait to be done with the sanding part! :lol: getting closer!

It was raining so we didnt get to sand blast it. :( dam rain! gona sand on the engine bay, and the inside of the cab hopfully done this week. 32 years of just road/dirt grim sucks! Its gota come off to get new paint! 8) Im hoping for the end of the month! :econfused

Went and looked at two luvs, two 79s. One from a fellow luv member Not a bad project. The other one was gone. No rockers, rust had took its toll. lol Never seen one that bad. I think im just gona go to pull an save and get what i need. 8)

More sanding done, got the rear lip of the cab done. The dash pretty closes anyway, and the engine bay a good half way done. My hands were killing me from the lacker :( there gona be pretty dried out 2omo. I was putting 4 gloves on but it just ate right threw them. Not a whole lot more to sand.

Have to take my Gf out to lunch for V-day 2omo, and my phone quit on me today. 2.5 years and it just quits. dam. Olwell hoping turning it off for the night fixes it. Good and bad day. haha Gota have them. Life goes on. 8)

Haha Im gona do mine door panels the diamond plate to, but im not sure if im gona paint them orange or not yet. The primer came out ok, its hard to get the shop warm enough, we are gona let the primer set for the week and then reprimer the roof and some of the cab. The plan is reprimer tape off the cab, paint the inside of the cab black, then haul it into work and spray it there so it all depends on how hard i work on it. haha 8) I want to put it together for good so bad. :twisted: So these next few weeks are energy drink time, eat, sleep, work on my luv. 8) (the Gf ant gona like me for a while) :lol:

haha I know what you mean, im trying to not spend all my saved money, Just trying to get threw my last leg of college, and then head for the oil feilds of Eastern montana/ North D. Money sounds so nice! :D
