[QUOTE="matt5058, post: 16410212, member: 164345"] Heat gun finally arrived..along with some other random stuff. On Friday evening, something else arrived. Our foster dog, Lady, gave birth to one puppy at our house and then was having trouble delivering the next one. We ended up having to take her to the clinic and she got an emergency c-section. An little over an hour later we were driving home with Lady and six tiny puppies. Hell of a Friday, lol. [ATTACH=full]1637645[/ATTACH] Once things settled down, I managed to get some garage time. Took advantage of the heat gun and started removing the body molding stripe.
