Dave, I think I may have a good windshield frame from an electric wiper model year. I'll dig through my stash to see what I got.

Thanks B'

Might be a tough choice between good and nice;D;D

Anytime Matt, just give me a ring...Probably get more of a kick out of the garage than the Rig;D

I love big garages probably because I don't have one. I did a 28 wide by 30ft deep garage this summer for a customer with storage upstairs. I told him I was super jealous when I was done with it.

28 X 38. Still need to find an easy way to paint the dormers%)

Geez...that is nice! All I'z got is a 14x24 shed!

I need to put it on a slab next year and I'm thinking a 24X36 slab would be just about right. ;D

LOVE YOUR garage Dave! (Ken) yours is special too!

get a 40ft ladder and lay it up the roof on the sides of the dormer. You'll have to extend it all the way up. Did it this way before works good.

Thanks guys

Have the 40 footer but need to pick up a Ladder Ridge Hook. Getting it up there is no fun and being lazy about it doesn't help either.

Dave's Garage is pretty Sweet I must say!

Man that garage looks awesome, bronco is looking good too.

 

[dave67fd]

Delaying the inevitable with the body but in the mean time, rebuilt the heater box.

Looks good Dave, I just took my heater box out yesterday for a rebuild. Hopefully it comes out looking like yours

 

[dave67fd]

Thanks Guy's,
Of course took me a lot longer than planned but what doesn't.
Sand blasted all the metal pieces and primed and painted.
Scuffed up the fiberglass box and just did the semi gloss on that.
New heater core and gasket set along with the GM Blower and wheel upgrade. Used 3M spray adhesive for the foam on the directional paddles.
Had to custom mount the blower and topped it all off with #6 and #8 SS hardware.
The heater resistor was in good shape (as their SS anyway) so kept that.

I am close to putting mine back together after a similar overhaul but I will have to shim the metal cover to the fiberglass shell as my GM blower wheel just rubs. The heater box I used was in very poor shape though.
