Cutting back to 60-65 hrs. - You need to slow down Gene. This old grey-beard knows that well.

The B-85 is looking fantastic.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.

Thanks Kurt. 60 or so hours a week is slow for me, that's only 10 hours a day, anything less than that and I would be bored to death. :laughing I've never been the type to sit, I have to be doing something most of the time other than my one hour or so wind down time before bed.

Digger thinks he's big stuff now hanging out on the big table lol. :rolling

The wheel situation is awesome, the hood is looking good, and everything is working out for the best. I couldn't be happier considering what it was. :10

The hood is unmasked, wax + grease removed and ready for paint. It's not getting painted till this evening or tomorrow morning. It turned out better than I ever expected, you will be surprised Craig. :thumb1 Deck decals should be here tomorrow.

Thanks Kurt. I went to the back to get new headlights for it and found I have the screw terminal type but not the plug terminal type in stock so they will be here in the morning along with the deck decals that have been sitting in Lexington for a few days... I hope USPS doesn't do anything stupid like they do sometimes lol. Next up is getting a few stock levels back where they belong now that I have some time to breathe. :smile2

I did take a few glamour shots, more to come tomorrow. :thumb1
