Well the Roadster is done. The only problem is I can't get it home till the ice is gone.

Ain't that how it always goes.

Congrats and Condolences

Congrats buddy. Hope mine will be soon.

At least it's done.

Well I got it home. Wasn't the best time to get it but it's supposed to rain here the rest of the week. It got a little dirty while we were loading. I will clean it up later. I have only 2 weeks till my knee surgery so I will put together what I can. At least it is home where I can work on it. I will get some more pics later this week.

Congrats, I know your glad to have it home

Super!

Congrats.

Got a few things done this afternoon. Hopefully tomorrow I can get some pics outside.

Awesome

Sweet!

Got a few pics yesterday. Still needs a little buffing but overall not too bad.

I don't know why my pics are small. When I try to make them larger they are too grainy.

Looks awesome Bill

Me likey!! Gonna roll it to craigs??

Thinking about trailering it there.

In my haste to get things done before my surgery I messed up. While checking the turn signals and lights I left the key on. Been almost 3 weeks since I have been to the shop. Yesterday I thought I would take it out for a drive. Moved everything around so I could get out. Got in and reached for the key and noticed it was ON!
Tried a battery charger for few hours yesterday with no luck. I guess my Optima battery is toast.

Sorry for your loss.

Dang that sux Bill

UPDATE! After charging most of the day I was able to start the Roadster. We will wait and see if it holds the charge overnight.

Well?

What he said ?

So far it is good. Started again today.

Looking good! I was wondering about the small pics as well. I clicked on the magnifying glass in the upper right corner of the pic background area on Photobucket, & it blew up the pic. It might be a little grainy, but it's much easier to see!

Also, regarding the Optima, I think it requires a slow charge. I had one (red top) on my old S-10 that I accidentally drained. If I'm not mistaken, it wouldn't ever charge doing a quick charge at Pep Boys. They deemed it a bad battery. Just before deciding to scrap it, I took it to a different parts store (Advance) that recommended the slow/long charge. Sure enough that did the trick. It was a 6 year old battery & still going strong when I sold the truck.

Hope it works for you.

Got a few things done yesterday. First I stained the deck. Then I worked in the shop for e few hours. Got the carpet installed. Fit was pretty good. I bought it from Rock Auto and it is ACC 80/20 loop. Bound all the way around.

Always good to get a little done. Will we see it in June?

I gave up on my painter finishing my Roadster. Been waiting on him since March to finish buffing the paint. Found a guy to buff it this weekend. He worked on it about 3hrs and made a ton of difference. This is after 2 stages as he calls it. He has 1 side and the other side of the bed done with the first 2 stages. He has a 5 stages of finish. He has been buffing for 20+ years. Here is a few pics in the shop tonite.

Looks pretty slick from what I can tell!

Agreed

I hope he can finish before the weekend. I had planned to take it to Bryan's Show. Will have to wait till Friday night and see.

Nice- really like the color.

Glad to see it done. Hope you make the show. Mine is still in paint prison and won't be ready in time.

He said last night that he would finish on Friday. So keeping my fingers crossed. Forecast is 20 percent chance of rain on Saturday.

Wish I could make it to Brian's show. Kids coming in town otherwise id load the red truck up on the dually and we'd be there.

Made it to The Southeast All GM Truck Nationals.

Well I just got a surprise. I just got a text from Brian. The Roadster won "Best Under Construction" The judges had written Ward instead of Wood on the sheet. Quite a shock.

Had plans to install the windshield on Friday. When the installer arrived we found a chip on the bottom about the size of a dime. This windshield has sat outside next to building for 3 years. I brought it in last weekend to clean it up. No chip then. I placed the windshield on the truck for a test fit and left it there all week. When we removed it there it was. I don't know what happened. I was afraid it would continue to crack so we didn't install it. Will have a new one on Monday.

That's a bummer!
