Evening all!

I got all the parts painted for the Mazda, got my scrap run in, and built Tiff's Christmas present. I'll get some pictures after Christmas. I don't want to spoil the surprise.

Good Morning Everybody!

I'll be off to the shop early this morning to try and get everything done so I can get home at a decent hour, but I have a busy day planned, so I guess we'll see how that goes.

Morning Missouri FTE members "twas the day before and Christmas...." you know the rest...lol. Well I am feeling just good enough that I get to load the truck full of presents for all the grandkids.

Travel for hrs all over Missouri today and tomorrow and set up a Christmas trees for 1 day then take it down the next day and back with me (WTH?). Eat like there is no tomorrow on some great chow and be happy.....at the inlaws.

So I just want to say to you all Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, drive safely, watch out for the other guy, stay warm, be merry, stay bundled up (I seen a snow flake up this way). Catch ya'll later.

We'll ck in in a few days to see who got what for Christmas. FYI I already got an awesome Ford related present from the x bro inlaw last night, pic later on this week.

So from Rich & Penny "A Merry Christmas to all"

Merry Christmas all. Safe travels Rich, I hope you find some rest in your travels as well. Alan, pics or it didn't happen...Tiff's gift. DuPont/Axalta now has a formulation for the paint for the Mach 1 in a BC/CC, I get to pick up the paint and clear today. I wasn't about to spray it in single stage. It only took three weeks to get the formulation done.

Afternoon All!

I got the Mazda in and took it all apart. It turns out I need a bumper support as well. I straightened the fender supports and got the new radiator support back in it. It took a few dozen whacks with a 5 pound sledge to straighten the bumper support enough to be able to unbolt it. ....I think I hurt myself doing that.

I finished painting and wiring Tiff's Christmas present. I also got a small job knocked out this morning. I fixed a sticky shifter in a newer Chevy Aveo.

I'm home now and relaxing. Already got some crock pot lasagna cooking so supper will be easy. I just have to make the garlic bread in a couple hours and we're all set to eat.

Thought I'd better jump o n the band wagon and wish everybody a Merry Christmas tomorrow.
Y'all be safe in traveling. Not sure what the weather is doing back home. Raining today and for the last couple of days, almost wish I'd kept my old boat.

Early Merry Christmas everyone!

Since my health has been pretty good this fall, I decided that I could afford a break from work this holiday season. I came home this afternoon and don't have to report back until Monday the 5th! Woo Hoo!

Not much going on here - the owner of the Jeep is coming over this weekend so we can try to knock out this Jeep. Since the steering gear was detstroyed, I'm going to take a close look at the track bar mounts for structural damage before slapping the new track bar in. Hopefully they held, if not, I may have some fabrication to deal with...

Take it easy there Alan - you don't need to tear something and wind up back in the hospital...

Good Morning Everybody and Merry Christmas.

Here's what I made for Tiff. She's been after me for a few years to make a tree for the yard like the one she saw in the light display at Finley park. Here's my version of it.



This is what Tiff and the girls got for me.

Nice looking goodies there Alan.

I must have been really good this year, but the first picture stunk so let me try again with the Nikon. I can't a decent picture with my cell phone to save my life....

Ok - here we go...





Merry Christmas!
