i'd have to lose 70 lbs of lard to even begin to think about spectating from the bench.

 

Sounds like me, AT LEAST 70 lbs.. Even if I didn't have this bum leg, no way I would even think about something like that . Ches, you're a better man than me . For sure.

 

Did about 4 miles on the bike, I need a bigger seat!

 

It's two blocks from my house. Down on the corner of 14 and 125. You pass it right before you get to my house. Picking you up may be a smidge out of the way.

Ches, yes, I'm friggin' swamped. Here I go out the darn door again right now. A guy just called for a matched pair of carburetors for a tunnel ram set up, so I have to go get the kits.

 

Well another 2 1/2 in the books, here is some points point of view at work. Man made snow and a nice place to fish...... I miss working so much closer to the ground.

We call her a "cougar" cause yes she is old, but good looking and knows how to work it. lol

 

That's a very good looking 'cougar'.

 

Cool shots, Rich!

More good news. A guy is coming tomorrow to pick up the front end of the parts truck I cut up. I normally would just take a statement like this with a grain of salt, but this guy seemed pretty serious. It seems his son wrecked his truck and he wants to get it back together this weekend.

Two more engine jobs just came in today and I have a dent a guy dropped off that I can sell my interior panels to. Looks like I may just get a tire machine next weekend. (fingers crossed.)

 

Evening gentlemen, sure was a beautiful day around the house..for my "Saturday".You & me both brother, you & me both. Hazard of the occupation...allot of sitting doesn't help you belt line...and seems to kill you "get up & go" when your not sitting at the controls.

Rich, you talking about the bird?

 

Hell yea sale those door panels and get "us" a tire machine, lol.

 

LMAO!

Do you or Unk Bob have a decent '78-'79 grill shell and a '79 driver's side headlight bezel? This dent I got in has a smashed grill and he wants to make it nice.

 

I have a decent one still in the blue front clip, its has a small fixable ding on the dvrs side right below in line with the side marker light. And do you need a chrome or argent grey head light ring? And do you need the big middle insert?

But I believe Unk Bob should have one alot closer? If not let me know......

 

I need some assistance. I started rebuilding my 2150 carb and the 4 little bolts that attach the throttle blades. One came out ok and three of them fought me the whole way. So now I need to replace 3 of them, Does anyone have any of these or at least know the size so I can try and replace them. Is there supposed to some sort of thread sealant between the blades and the throttle shaft? Please help, I feel like such a idiot for getting my a$$ kicked by little bolts.

 

Alan, I'm gonna try to call you sometime this week to see about getting my truck over to your place next Saturday. I've compiled a list of what I want you to fix, so most likely I'll have to leave it with ya for as long as needed.
I'm on-call this week, so I'll be on the computer more often than any other week.

I found out last night, the husband of one on coworkers is a seller at the gun shows.She says I may be able to get good prices on bullets and such, which is a good thing, as I don't like the dollar a bullet for my Colt 45.

 

Well hello Lee and welcome back around, how's the new year treating you so far?

 

Thanks Rich, I'll let you know. I don't need an actual grill insert. He crunched the shell on the outside of the headlight. You oughta see the bed on this truck. It's just about perfect and not a spot or rust anywhere. Aside from the rattle can primer job on the surface areas, this truck really isn't that bad. It's a 460 with factory air and C6 auto. I have some oil and exhaust leaks to fix on it. Then just a general once over to make sure it's all good.

Lee, next Saturday is the auction. You can drop it off in the afternoon. I plan on running out of money pretty quick.
