Happy Thursday everyone. My Cards play the Vikings tonight. Go Arizona.

Bruce, it is nice & warm for Dec.

Worked today also. Did work on the house, but my main project was to put a thermostat in our 73 Galaxie. The wife took it to work last week when it was a cold morning. She said the heater barely put out heat. So bought a thermo & found today it was stuck open. So replaced it & the heater seems to be putting out good heat.

Bruce the only thing that is old on me is my body. What brain I have, tells me the same stuff as when I was 20 & 30 years old as far as working. LOL

Nope, still in eastern Nebraska. Weird weather, but, I'm good with it!

Oh, contraire, my friend! I've been working on mounting the outer mirrors, but having issues getting them where they can mount properly. I'm also going to have to see if I can find a company that can make me the plastic spacers that go under them, to get them at the right angle. Maybe someone that does 3D printing.

not much going on today. Got to pick up the skateboard I ordered for the minion here in a bit. I hope to have my new shocks in today or tomorrow so I can get those installed this weekend.

I hope I can figure out my damn mirrors. The inner door mount won't cooperate, since, it will be hitting the hinge mount. I need to work on adapting it.

Can't you just bend to fit in a better location?

EDIT: Oh wait, are you using late model mirrors like Dave did on his Bronco?

Yep, same mirror. Brackets are aluminum, so, no bending. But, I may be able to cut and adapt them, just have to get one of the guys here at work to weld them, since I don't have the capacity to weld aluminum at home.

Pat; I think it is these hurdles, that you will look back on someday with a sense of pride! Hang in there, from what Ive seen, you will get it right.

Thanks Wally! Yeah, I'll figure it out. I just wish I could weld the aluminum myself. Might have to fix that here in the future!

I hear you! My thought is if its a tool I don't have, then I need it!
