The Studebaker finally got its new motor mounts and a carb refresh so it could leave the garage for the first time in about a year. The S10 got the gas tank dropped, cleaned and the sending unit prepped for an AEM 340 pump, and it got new ball joints and a steering gearbox re-seal. Earlier in the week I totally gutted the interior and cleaned the bejeezus out of everything so it’s no longer disgusting.

I finally finished installing the recessed lighting and new ceiling tiles in the basement, and I started gutting the final bathroom that needs a remodel.

Nevertheless, I'm already sick of being home. Anyone else being productive?

I can work remotely, so I had plenty of work to do during the week. Today I made some progress on my storage building. I also managed to get the mower starting again, but with a bent shaft, it’s going to need a new starter.

Other than that, we’re just trying to stay civil to one-another while all being cooped up in the house.

Those are some good looking ceiling tiles. What are they made of?

Pictures of the Blazer’s interior? I can’t recall the last time I saw a clean one.

I watered my plants.

Plants for scale:

Good to know. How do I make it not do that?

Masonite. They’re certainly durable! I can get you the brand if you’d like.

The interior was an utter biohazard. The carpet is pretty rough, but it no longer smells like mold and cigarettes. I scored a nice driver’s seat at the local pick-n-pull before I went on lockdown.
