Great to see your three sons learning such skills. Keep doing what you are doing.

Should be whipped into shape in no time.

He'll be back in the field tomorrow. He does farm work in spring and fall, but had the day off for rain today.

Today his tires were delivered, so we mounted them up on his Chrome Reverse steelies .

Fronts we should have gone one size wider. The 6.40-15s look really good on the 15x5 on my 68, but they look a bit too stretched on these 15x6.

Rears are 275/60 on 15x8s, and fit perfect.

These chrome reverse wheels took several years to find.

Lookin' good !! Those 275's really fill up the wheel well nicely.
How's the sanding coming ?
I only had 3 other cars with me on the cruise Saturday, so it was a very relaxing time.

Should be done sanding the body and doors this week.
Hoping by end of next week to have the roof and door jambs painted.
Then we move on to fenders and hood, which still need a fair amount of work.

I change the plan by the minute though, so who knows how this all shakes out.
