Splurging - Swamp Cooler

Now I have to stop spending money.  I splurged on 12/03/2011 and bought a swamp cooler.  I think these things look so cool. Even though they are made for the desert southwest, and don't work in humid climates, I had to have it.  However, I will probably be the only one in the midwest with one!

Pics of the actual item.  $335 with shipping, not too bad of a deal.




Smooth Firewall

In the process of smoothing out the firewall on 12/02/2011.  Kevin gave me a chance to "approve" the changes before putting in the modified (from original) distributor hump and toeboard.

Clock Housing Found - SCORE!!!!!

I found the SUPER-RARE optional clock housing for my '54!  And its NOS!  $140 with shipping is a steal.




Now I'm hoping to find the cattle guard.
