Glad to see that you are still keeping this blog alive. Though my sidebar automatically brings the newest publications to the top of the list, but I haven't seen your's in over a year. Hoping to continue doing so. The last one I saw was when you were still building your shop. I loved working on my 50's through 70's as well. Unfortunately, my personal workshop dreams are gone. Miller MIG welders are the best. What a lot of people don't realize is the Drive Wheels wear down and the Tips as well as the Liners have to be replaced in order to keep them working smoothly. Do that and the weld will look like it was painted on. Stay Safe and Enjoy!
Thanks for looking. I have made some good progress on numerous projects on an in the barn. Kinda in a slow down with Winter setting in. Currently piecing together Rusty 2 enough to get the engine running so I can evaluate its condition. Hopefully it’s good enough as is for a fun beat around truck. Come spring the other engine, “289 cu in”, will go back together. A complete rebuild. Blazes new heart!
