Replied on Red Barns, Rare Bantams, White Weasels and Murphy, ShopTime™ #234

Yes sir! I don't love being up there either...but the more you play on that lift, the less you remember that you should be scared. My wife found me stretching out on top of the cupolas the first time I repaired the barn....it was time to get off the roof....

If Mr. Pullup had been around, we would have hand started it ;-)

Calling me out Mat! Ha! You are right :-). Next time you come over, I am putting you in charge of replacing that cotter pin and getting both ends bent correctly ;-)

Appreciate the support Steve! So yes, the transfer case and transmission have the TM9 Shade 8/319 on it. The driveshafts were painted with the Long Olive Drab Line paint and then were handled a bit with less than clean hands....darkened right up. Still on the fence about what to use....

10 foot Paint Job on the Studebaker M29

Making progress on the "10 foot" paint job on the M29 Weasel. My bride asked "what's a 10 foot paint job". I explained..."looks good at 10 feet".....not so much up close. I generally don't like doing temporary work, but this machine will be displayed several times over the next month and I would rather have it look a little more presentable.

Enjoy your week!
