Thanks for the feedback John.  I just created a new "channel" - called "Universal Man"....because it is such a big world out there.  The first video is 30 minutes on moving hives/capturing swarms.  My goal long term with Portrayal.tv is to add other channels.  I am talking with a firearm restorer about doing a show on just that - super high level of craftsmanship and fascinating.  I have a friend who is an extraordinary Windsor chair maker....etc.  The goal is "Netflix" for "gearheads" or "makers" etc....all hopefully without the silliness that you find on cable.

That's what happens when you stay married to the same woman for 27 years!  She figures you out😂  Appreciate it Pierre - super happy with how Murph came out and the more I drive it...the better it drives. 

Seems to be a popular request!  😂  On it sir!

Am I to interpret your comment as meaning you would like to see a T84 rebuild video?  Is that what you are saying Nick? 

Thank you for the thoughtful words Jay.  My grandfather was Mr. Fixit too...a real product of the Great Depression.  Love your grandfather's quote...there is indeed great joy in "putting things in order"....  Reminds me of the real "renaissance man" quote too...."jack of all trades, master of none, but almost always better than a master of one".....You get me thinking...what is with the increase in chaos required to put everything in order?  That riddle might take a Scotch or two to unravel...if unraveling is even possible....

Thank you Dana - really pleased with the stencils and how Murph is looking.  I have not done the glass, but will for next week....looking forward to it!

Thanks Dave!  We will show the original photo next week - we have a couple of things left to finish on Murph and we will do the "big reveal"...😀Dennis has a place in upstate NY...he was hanging out and didn't show up for work.  We put a note in his file!

Thanks Mark!  We are gearing up to put markings on Murphy...going to be a lot of fun!  Hope you and Marsha and doing great!

Indeed, I actually spent some time organizing T84 parts.  The long awaited video is indeed on the way.  I am going to post some Sasquatch footage too😂

As for fenders, I 100% like the approach.  Most of the time, they suffer from rusted out hat channels or the sheet metal underneath.  The MD Juan repro hat channels don't fit correctly and always require extensive modification - Debella/SGI ones appear to be made correctly (I have not actually installed one yet, but have a set). If you are replacing the hat channels, definitely mock up before you really get after the welding...slight misalignment means major fitment issues....I have made this mistake before. Most of the time, holes in the fenders themselves can be patched....just depends on how bad they are....

Fair enough Howard - all feedback is always appreciated!
