Rich, I won't be able to make it to the Jamboree that weekend. The wife has already made plans for us, I am informed. If you remember next time at the JY that would be great, if not thats fine too.

 

Doesn't look like I will be making it to the Jamboree this year either. Got a softball tournament that weekend.

 

well decided to take off a little early today. had a heck of a storm earlier and power went off awhile.. but did manage to get a little done, got the cab prepped and ready to install the new windshield tomorrow.. got the rest of the cab mounts in, the holes cut out for the e-brake cable, installed and working.. frt. shocks installed and a few other small items done.. you cant tell by the pictures but 5 hrs. of work done till i got tired..

Evening Everybody!

I've been poking in but haven't said anything lately. I've been in a really bad place lately and haven't said much of anything to anyone. The family got together and talked for a while and it made me feel better. I haven't even unlocked the door to the shop in a week. I DO plan on being there this weekend, though.

Sorry I left Jeff and RC hanging, I needed to get a few things straightened out in my head.

.....but I feel MUCH better now.


Oh yeah, ...the truck is looking great, RC!

 

Well relaxing is important and if you need to "relax" up my way, you are always welcome. lol I do owe you a ride in the ol red bronco, but we will not test the roll cage.

I am working all next week for a lady Penny use to work with. The ladies husband has a huge barn and needs a hand around it with some repairs, so much for my truck plans.....

Its great to have the computer back up with a fresh overhauled motor, new rims and tires and duel exhaust, here it rumble?

 

good morning missouri... well almost..


dang storms are too loud.. taz keeps wanting to be near me.. what a wuss she is!!!!

 

i guess nobody's up yet??? well i should of gone back to bed, instead i played on the computer and bought some new tires for the 71 f100 project.... i hate spending money!!!!!!!!

rich what OS are you running on your hopped computer?.. you know how i am, my computer is completely built from used parts. i am still using the XP OS i am thinking of converting over to windows7 since microsoft made my old system obsolete... some day i would like to get a new computer and stop using old out dated parts... but my truck projects keep me too poor..

 

Morning RC, well its not really hopped up, more like overhauled. Had to get a new antivirus that's all. Its a Toshiba from 09 still running windows vista....I am yet to get with the "new" stuff.

But I hear windows 7 is better then windows 8, cause 8 is nothing but problems. I would still be using my HP from 06 w/(windows xp) it the wifi had not just disappeared off it??? lol

 

rich the "old" main board i have in this computer dont have the integral wifi.. so i just bought a usb device offa ebay for 5 bucks..it has been working great on several different computers for several years..

 

if you have a 2006 computer that would be a late model to me... all my computers and parts are 80's to 90's and some early 2000

 

Good morning all, I think our home computer is a tuned up 2000 model. We have two late model 2010 or newer lap tops but mine hasn't even been charged in over a year.

 

Good morning all!

No issues Alan.

Still plannung on being at the Jamboree. Truck or not. Heck, I might bring Ol Big Red, but the paint is dying fast on him. Almost too fast.

 

Its an off road jamboree bring it, I might drag the Hillbilly Bronco down? Along with the pick-a-nick table, shad tent and FTE banner! You can pre enter your truck on fri and only pay $50 instead of $75 the day of the event.....and hat gets you parking in side and 2 fee admissions arm bands for both days, so you and the son are covered.

You sign up across from the fairground in the satellite parking lot all day long.

This year is the monster truck back flip attempt aka crash another one.

Afternoon All.

I woke this morning with my back screaming at me. I'm pretty sure it's humidity. It's almost too humid to mask the truck I've been working on. My hopes of laying primer down today are dwindling.

 

well i gave up early again today.. got a bit damp getting a spindle offa a 47 chevy at the yard.. i forgot it is friday so wont be able to ship it off till monday... was going to put the windshield in today but just didnt feel like it since it was already 1500 and i was all wet... i did get some tires broke down (dang manual tire machine is rough on ya) and new ones on the wheels and installed on the s10 early this morning so i wont be afoot for a few days at least..
