last ones for a while....

Postby doug hodder » Sat Aug 08, 2009 11:33 am

Here's the last of my gas pressure projects for a while. Starting a new trailer and the gas pressure appliance museum is full house, I guess I have all upstairs though! The 425 is blasted, and will be painted to match the new trailer as it's going to be the main cook appliance, but I at least need to get it into primer. Also still need the correct tank generator for it, Jeremy is looking for me. I won't be painting till I get the wheels for the new project from my nephew and bead blast them. Still gotta pick the exact color. The lanterns are a '54 and '62 220 haven't been started yet. Total investment in the group 10$. Just thought someone ought to post as it's nearly a week and nothing new over here. Doug

Doug, funny you should mention those particlar lanterns. I just recently finished a 1962 220E. I didnt fire it up yet, but it worked before I repainted it.

I havent been colemaning in a while, started restoring a 64 impala, so ive been patching rust holes, grinding and all that goes along with old impalas..doing some selling of stuff on craigslist to free up room in my back garage so I have someplace to park my hotrod out of the dust and grime of the main shop. Put 2 60s vintage impalas in a 30x40 shop and htere isnt much room left! lololol
