After looking at your post, it sort of makes me nauseated to see the damage. Keep up good work!

Re: Doughboy's 68 rebuild
Took my wife out for Valentines Day dinner... on the way home and it was raining.... I had not adjusted the kick down setting ( knew it was an issue when accelerating) and started up an overpass plus the speed limit changed to 45 from 35... so gave her some gas... damn thing kicked down to first gear ... then kissed the guard rail instead of my sweetie for valentines day!!
The truck had a lot of bad bondo spots we would have fixed eventually... but it just accelerated the process to do it right. I have found a lot more hidden rust that is now getting fixed properly... so it will be a keeper when done!!
