Been doing some wire wheeling and painting this week. A fresh coat of paint is about as close as i get to owning anything new. LOL.
Got a 4x2 reducer off Ebay and got out the Man wrench to screw it in.
While cleaning up the tank I could see the chalk marks and reference marks that the builders used when frabricating 34 years ago. And beads of welds that only a welder can appreciate.
My choice of paint was high temp rustoleum engine paint which was at our local Mardens store for less than 2 bucks a can.
