Only a few more days till Christmas. A week today in fact. Ive almost completed ALL my Christmas shopping. Not bad for a guy who normally doesnt start for another 2 days. Yay Me. Bug is coming along slowly. Got all the fenders off, and started sanding them down. Came to the realization: need 4 new fenders. I went to Johns Bug Shop in Niagara falls. He’s a little further out then Marks Bug Barn, but prices are quite a bit less. (1600 in parts at MBB, is only 1250 TAXES IN!!! at Johns, for the exact same parts). Biggest difference is mark tags you for the shipping charges where as Johns dont. Oh well. Im sure both will see plenty of my money in the next little while. Picked up the front apron and spare tire well. Also got a fender, but gonna need to return it, as its for 75+. Will take it back when i pick up the front beam + 4 new fenders. Hopefully by then Alex and I will have been able to get the corners welded up, and the inside primed. (a guy can dream cant he!!!) Parts should be ready for me any day.
Elevator syndrome is eating at me. Though i said id never do it, i am debating putting the truck up. (but in a big way). Considerring going from my 2/4 drop to a 7″ lift. Possibly a little more if i do the body lift as well. I will have to do some hard thinking before i decide. I dont want this one going up and down. Eany Meany Miney Moe.
