Well,

Gotta work the next 3 or 4 weekends so decided to miss the Jamboree today and do a little more work on the barnster...

Here's how we left our hero.....

Shaped and fitted the short outer rocker (below)...

Looks a bit better with paint on it. Lookin good for metal finished. The paint is high zinc primer that you can weld thru..

Gaps are looking good too.

Again, if you want to look at slightly bigger pictures with more detail go too..

Could have used a fridge today too! Hot, damn hot!

Well, that it'll be it for about a month! At least I should be over my welder's flash by then!
