    Got the roof painted today. And made sure all the lights work while that was drying. Is there a place to get new tail light gaskets and bucket seals or are they all homemade?

    Spent the day wet sanding and man are my arms tired ! Even wore a couple fingernails down to the quick. Maybe "final " paint tomorrow. Wow , I checked on the gaskets from Brothers, they were only 2$ but shipping was 12,, thats to funny ! Will check with the other, I mean they could just slide these in an envelope?? Id make my own ,but me and razor knives dont always get along.

    Alive again after a 4 day deal with food poisoning! Talk about sucking wind! Still really weak but doing better and hopefully I can get back to work on the van soon as well as getting parts out to folks from the parts van.

    "WENDY'S chicken sandwich" with bad mayo! Guess that's "their" secret sauce!......
