    That pile of junk amounted to $1035.00. I was pleasently suprised. Buddy took me to a different scrap buyer. I gave him 200 for his time, plus that 318 block i had. He was happy. And he had the glass for my Studebaker. Its pretty good too.

    Goodafternoon! Still raining off and on. Shop was nice and warm though. Cleaned up and removed cab from frame. Did the welding i needed then started cleaning. Needle scaler at 35 psi isnt bad for airborne dust. But floor is a mess.
