Glad to hear things are as usual out there and that you are well.
I just don't understand your obsession with paint, though. You don't need it out there . . .

 

 

You could put some orangy brown splotches over the wheel arches and on the rockers for that "weathered" look.

 

Yeah, I could punch a bunch of holes in a piece of cereal box to spray through. That would create the look of the just about to fall through metal.

speaking of artificial weathering these AR15 receivers are aluminum the rust and weathering is painted on using Cerakote gun coating.

AR15?! Thought you weren't allowed to have icky evil scary black rifles in Commiefornia because they cause crime and violence and all that.
(MUCH sarcasm intended in that statement)

 

That pic is off the net. I ran across it looking for parts. I am starting To Put together a AR On the low budget plan{one piece at a time}

You can have them If you bide by their s crazy laws. You have to have what is considered to be a fixed magazine. this is the fix.

AR15 Bullet Button

and A 10 round magazine.And one that isn't on the "Ban list"{they abandoned that years ago} then you can have all the "Evil features"
And ARs being what they are When I move I can restore it to what it is supposed to be.

Commiefornia is exactly right. This state has past the left and into the red.
IF all else fails since they go on appearances.

 

Guess I better get back to work on the truck.

 

BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!! Best AR pic I've seen in a while!

 

I thought you would like that.

 

Well I got some done on my truck. First off a bird in the hand can be very messy.
Next is the adjustable brake pushrod finished.

I also got the shock mounts on. I moved the hole on the mount instead of the frame. the mounts sit at a bit more of an angle than stock but It was easyer than welding and smoothing out the frame.

Next is the bracket for the brake tube to the hoses at the steering knuckles.

and last is one of the upper rear shock bushings I put together.

 

And the smog offender I took off the cheesy plastic lights and the bug deflector and it doesn't look half bad.

 

I'm telling Dave the moderator, you're giving us the bird. He'll delete or clean up your post....

 

I needs a good cleaning.

 

What's up with the rust free princess ?

 

Mark, I like you but I'm tempted to send you a chunk of my rotted out frame in order to bring the steel pox to Commiefornia!!
