1ORNCH

[Pigeaten]

Had plans to build an Ornch pig for wife, bought silver one to keep her happy till Ornch finished. This I thought (as well as others) was the pig for the build, original paint, 2 sl
small spots of rust
Wrong!

 

[Pigeaten]

A few spots on outs side, but more on floors. More rust than I wanted,if spending $5001.
Good project for someone else?
Anyway, brought it home, put in driveway.
Neighbor comes over looking at silver pig, walking around it, I spot a bubble in paint, F….!
That night I wake up in the middle of night, lightbulb goes off, paint silver pig Ornch.
So that’s the plan, took to body shop, going to attack bubble area first
Love the silver, but momma wants Ornch
Stay tuned

Hmm Kim loved that pig!! Ornch, she will love more can’t wait to see it finished!

 

[Pigeaten]

My 2 consultants said don’t do it, but a promise is a promise

 

[Pigeaten]

Since Steve the pig is in Texas getting 5.3 transplant,,Ornch at body shop, that leaves pumpkin the pig-a 72 that ran when parked 18 months ago, that I was going to part out, but may be my primary pig for awhile
So I will pull out, tomorrow and have consultants help me get her on the road.
Except no rear bumper, score by @Gordobe

Man your “part out” pigs are way nicer than anything I have seen in person in 30yrs up here.

A lot of rust on Pumpkin, came out of Reno, where roads salted. Most of rust on bottom 6 inches

Pumpkin lives, put jumper cables on, 1 shot of starting fluid, bam!, drove down road, went thru gears, carb off a bit, but ran, new project till others back

So you're saying that clean living pays off?

 

[Pigeaten]

Not sure I can attribute positive things to my clean living, probably luck

I know you said that this body has issues - do you detail those issues anywhere?

You can always check with Bump It Offroad for a rear bumper! I am not sure how much longer he will be making those...
