Brandy the dog, and a 1937 Ford Sedan

So, we have a dog. Her name is Brandy. She is awesome… Well, late last week, she her eye swelled up… really big. REALLY big. We let it be for a day thinking it would get better, but it didn’t. So, I took her to the vet last Thursday. They gave her a steroid, and anti-biotic shot, and gave us antibiotic shots to give her. It looked a whole lot better the next day, and now it’s back to normal… I’m very relieved.

So, last night, I ended up making a deal on a 1937 Ford Sedan. Now, it’s not much to look at, but this is one of my all-time favorite cars. I don’t have any firm plans right now, but I’ve got alot of ideas floating around the vacuum that is my head.

More bodywork…

Well, I figured I’d easily be finished with bodywork by now… shows how little I know about doing bodywork! I mean, putting in the diplomat front clip didn’t take this long!!

Anyways, I’m making progress, despite a million other things going on right now. I’ve got most of the floor welded in, and am getting the hidden pieces that seal the cab from outside welded in too. I’ve been working on patching a few holes, here and there, in the body too… I patched the antenna hole in one of the photos.
