Good Morning From Sparta!
The great scrap metal haul off of 2014 will happen today at the car lot. I hope to fit everything on the trailer and in the back of the pick up. I made my scrap run on Friday. Today is the car lot's turn. We literally have more than a complete vehicle of scrap.
I found a couple wires in my research last night on Jeff's truck that I didn't hook up. So I hope that'll be done today too.
RC. I may need your hand troubleshooting a running issue on Jeff's truck. It kinda sounds like it's missing and it doesn't have any power. It idles fine, though.

Afternoon Everybody!
RC. I'll be at the shop for the rest of the week, so anytime will work. I just fixed the metal on the roof of the Suburban the tree fell on. It caved the roof in a good 4" or so. It's all back in shape and as flat as I can make it, so it's on to mud work. I hope to have it in primer by the end of the day, but I guess we'll see. I have two more behind this one that need to be done by Friday.

Happy Birthday Rich
Getting quotes from moving company's and it looks like we're gonna do this one our selves. They want half as much as we paid to travel almost 1000 miles. But we also got a deal and a half from a friend of mine that owns a moving company in Kansas.
Doctor's appointment yesterday for another injection in my right thumb due to Arthritis. Sounds like my next appointment with a Surgeon, yup it's officially gone bone to bone (Osteoarthritis), just like my right hip.
Sounds like y'all are doing pretty well.
Y''all behave
Unk Bob

happy birthday (again) rich.... hope all goes well for ya bob...
well i had a fair day..didnt get alot done because my parts havent come in yet.. but i did play with the intake heater idea i came up with since i installed the split exhaust to heat the intake on cold starts.. dont look like much but took several hours to build... i also got the water pump pulley, charcoal canister and a few odds and ends under the dash finished up.. then when i started to connect the starter cable i found out the stud for the cable was stripped..so dissembled the starter and decided it would be best to replace with a new one, it should be here in the morning with my other parts....i will post a couple of pics so ya'll know i didnt just lay around all day ..(like i should of)... ha ha ha ha ha
