The Daily Grind – The ’31 Ford Model A Build Update
Mike BurroughsIt’s been a hot minute since I photographed my progress on the truck. I’ve taken to YouTube to document my progress, which has been a new, fun, and rewarding addition to the content I get to make, but it felt like a great time to slow my roll, grab the camera, and share some good old-fashioned photos of I’ve been up to.

When the F90 M5 arrived earlier this year, it was no surprise to hear that IND put one on order, and in typical fashion, ordered one in a not-so-subtle color. This example, finished in Snapper Rocks Blue Metallic, undoubtedly stands out from the crowd as one of BMW’s latest thrilling hues.
