Hi folks,
Last night before going to bed I went down to the shop and took one last look of the day at what I had accomplished for the past several days. I was pondering over ideas that were going through my mind during the day while I was stripping this thing down. Not only was I constantly deciding what I would need to do to correct the problems I was uncovering but also I was thinking about what directions I want to go in with this project. I have long since learned that since my projects are stretched out over a period of several years, I tend to have lots of time to consider new ideas that pop up as well as acquisitions that I had no idea I would acquire when I start a project. My '53 pickup project,
https://darksidersrealm.forumotion.com/t204-first-53-build-thread
is a good example of this. It has changed directions several times and I've no doubt that it will again. So, I see no reason why this project won't go the same way. My original idea for this project was to build a bobtail toter by sitting this cab on a later model diesel chassis. However, now I keep seeing all these slant back car haulers and they are also pretty cool. I am also considering lots of ideas considering the interior. There are so many possibilities that I am hesitant to paint myself into a corner that I may soon regret. I guess it's a matter of procrastination VS snap decisions. I'm constantly trying to find a balance between the two extremes. People say I'm wishy-washy... Not true, sometimes I'm wishy and some times I'm washy.
I don't often follow suggestions verbatim but I do consider all of them and take parts of them as a way to go in many cases. So, don't be afraid to suggest things to me or ask questions.
Later Folks...
