Life and times at the garage are speeding up, which is evident in the lack of pain in my fingers and the ability to taste food and not dust. Today I had the pleasure of rebuilding a headlight. And I wasn't left with any pieces at the end so I know I did it right!
First, let me share this tree. I see this guy when we walk over to the garage and he seems excited to see me every time. He makes my day.
Also, I installed the vent back into the body of the truck. True assembly has begun and I could not be more grateful or happy.
This is pretty much how it started out - old nasty light inside rusted housing.
I had to break off this gromet to get the old wiring out.
New lights go in.
But to do that I have to take more stuff apart.
Then I had to do this to make the headlight fit. It's all very technical.
Bam. You cram everything back together with a hammer.
Then Troy tries to tell you he's renaming the business Weston Inc because he has this bad ass hand sign.
I also painted these. One is the bezel for the headlight, one is the house for the back up lights. Both are now red.
It felt awesome to finally build something with my hands instead of sanding until they near bled. The next couple of weeks should be filled with stories of me building a hot rod. You will have to deal with this.
