60Patrol

Hmm.... now what to do? I no longer have a passenger bench, lol. I like the integrated backrest style more, and it seems like it would be more stable/adjustable than the earlier style. Well, I might as well do all 3, no point in letting them sit and rust. Someone will have a need for an extra someday, im sure.
Maybe get a duplicate machined from the black frame guy...

Thank you for the clarification, river.

Nice little stash of parts you have there. I love digging through all the extras when I get my hands on a new patrol.

Thanks Miller! Yeah, that seems the way it goes with the Patrols, every potential buy I've gone to see includes some extra parts. What I've got is about half from the PO and half from a donor yard in New Mexico.

Steve,
Are you working too hard?
I'll bet you are on heavy work schedule.
Can't wait to hear more of the project Ruby.

Well, yes, I have been. Been super busy, also a lot of this and that. But the main thing that kept me out of contact for awhile was a busted computer. I have the fancy new one up and running and will be back on 60patrol with annoying regularity, once again, lol.

As far as the resto goes.... it goes nowhere right now. Unfortunately the money I had committed for different aspects (dip stripping, body work...) disappeared right after all my issues came along, funny how that works. So I glued the piggy bank back together and have re-begun to save for the work.

Lack of progress on my Patrol notwithstanding, I'll still be here to provide inane commentary and questions for the rest of the community!

Hey mate can you take a clearer picture of the tune up badge.

Our buddy SP has had some made but seems to be busy atm. Here is his post.

That is super cool of you!
After reading Steves posts I believe it may be well worth the trip just for entertainment value.....
......but this is great and I must say this site really makes a difference to our Patrols and the community. There really is good stuff happening here!

Consider this my notification of needing help, lol. I've got a ways to go before I'll have the time and $ for this, but I will definitely take you up on that offer.

All the work you are putting into these fab's and your contributions to the site, offers of help... You're the man Ron!

Any patrol person is welcome out here anytime! Beers, dinner and bad jokes on me!!!
