I love that small upwards angle you put in there. Looks killer and definitely cool custom!

Really making progress. Looks like perfect weather to be outside working. You’re an inspiration.
Just caught up. Got me motivated to fix some pig metal

Thanks everyone 
Appreciate the encouragement
Weather was threatening all week, but cleared out and gave me time to get some work in. Now it’s getting darker earlier so I’m wrestling with daylight during the week. My strategy is to get as much prep work done during the week so everything flows as smooth and quickly as possible during weekend time. At least for another month or so.

Today I can honestly say I beat procrastination.
Been wanting to get busy on the passenger side quarter cap all week. Was able to get a few minutes in here and there throughout the week in anticipation for bringing it together for weekend. Well, Mrs. RUSH had other plans that required my attention then total disappearance from the house for the night, while she held a “True Romance” party with the girlz (if you know what that is). So me and the boys went out and found a camp spot at the river for the night. Got home today and just wasn’t in the gung-ho mood. But I thought, “Well at least do this one thing....” then that brought on a series of events that ended up being some progress. So take that, procrastination.
Got the long section of cap welded together. Not a lot, but something...

Nice!
Are those 28” tires on there?

Looking really great. About to run out of warm weather here. You’re lucky to have the longer season.

Thanks Bill This first 10 days of October have been fantastic! Absolutely perfect 
My only issue is that by the time I get off work (4:30pm) I have about an hour of daylight to get something done. Gonna be limited to only weekends soon, and you know how weekends get during the last couple months of the year.

They will really help me to see what can be done, and how.

This here would be nice to have to create some of these pieces with the multiple bends. Eastwood says this one is good on 18 or 20 ga, I’d like to have one that did 14ga.

Eastwood Shrinker/Stretcher Combo Set-Two Bodies Two Jaws
2 separate bodies: 1 shrinks, 1 stretches... no switching needed
I think that’s well beyond typical bodywork ga, might be a huge investment.
