I just turned heat up in garage.  -12 this morning.  I leave heat set @40° in garage so nothing freezes. Since garage is very well insulated it warms up quick. 

 

Gonna get out on 654 & plow the couple inches off driveway before the big snow predicted to start later today comes.

Sunny and warm here... -13...

 

Yeah..... I don't want any. :lol:

 

It's 19 here on the other side of zero. Plenty cold enough for me. 

 

Opened the door this morning to let the dog out, and he just looked at me like I was stupid and ran back to his doggie bed. I think he's pretty smart. :rolleyes:

Weekend up date.....

 

Finished the body work on the hood, with all the hand sanding with a block it should be strait as an arrow.

Seems the tranny does not need to come apart, I wire wheeled it to strip the paint off.

I pulled a :wh: 8" plow apart, sandblasted & painted it. Note: I did not blast the polished surface of the share or moldboard. Hard to see all the parts in the pic.

Question - Did :wh: use a decal on the early 60's implements, if so what did they look like ? 

 

Weather permitting I hope to make some paint fly next weekend.:handgestures-fingerscrossed:

Didn't think those came out until the square hoods did?
