This one isn´t forgotten, because I fixed bumper ends and right front fender flare, and then painted them black...

Here we are again...

Wagon has collected a lot of dust... But now it is time to start again. A finnish old car magazine wants to make a story of this ex-U.S.Embassy car...  8) You can see new wheels (Keystone Vortex) and BFG tires.



First thing is to fix driver side door. There´s some rust and at least three holes...  >:(



It needs some wiring too... Hinges are "remanufactured"

Hey Juhap,

See your building a log cabin! I built them for 16 years for others, plus one for myself. I currently work for Log Home Living Magazine now and also do the log home shows around the country.

I know its a bit off topic of eagles, but keep me up to date on your cabin project!

Thanks
Rob

Ok, big sauna!

Or very small steamy cabin?

My vote is a hunting lodge or blind. That doubles as a sauna and Doghouse when the significant other gets mad..

My sauna project has some new logs.

Bigger room is sauna and smaller one is dressing room...





And I used citric acid to co-drivers door. It needed little welding and cleaning. Now it has etching primer and waits for bondo...

Hmm... no pics...  >:D
