The "Holy crap, it's already February" BS and general nonsense thread

Here it is. Another month gone and projects not getting completed. The promo video will be up soon for Earthquake. It didn't turn out too bad.

I guess I won't be able to upload my video. It turned out ok, but Youtube and photobucket won't take it. I can't even upload it to FB. It says it's too big, but it's only 5.27 long. There's 2 hour videos on there from other people. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I've been running to Des Moines to Omaha and back to Kansas City tonight, the next 24 hrs will be interesting around here. A blizzard watch is in effect with 8 to 14 inches of snow in Omaha.

Well that might complicate the trip a little. Travel safe!

Nothing like dreaming about having a severe headache only to wake up with one. I'm running late, but I think I'm going to make it in. Haven't had one of these in a very long time.

Good Morning Everybody!

A color sand and buff is in my immediate future. After that, it's back on the bump.

Morning folks, well ol silver is in my work parking lot and getting a new w/s after work today.

I think it has to get some new front calipers, they are sticking like crazy.

Thanks for the new thread Alan.

Rich. See what happens when vehicles sit? You need to drive those poor trucks more before you turned in to the Ford truck neglect hotline.

Hahaha....but I am not happy with Ol Big Red right now because of the sitting.... My only way out of the neglect hole is that he has new differentials

By the way I'll have those custom duelly wheels and tires for sale soon...that is actually a factory 79 single wheel rear end. Custom wheels were put together to make it a duelly and not stick out...

#* I should add that the wheels won't stick out of a flatbed

Glad that we have our Missouri members working at getting their dents on the road....seems like there has been more commitment in the last few months.

Alan, you still doing that car show this year? I will be bound and determined to have a dent there....even if Bandit is in your shop, I'd like one of my others there...goals seem nice with this good weather lately!! Lol

Jeff. I'm not putting the show on this year, but they are having one. If I have the truck together by then, I may do a car crush, otherwise, it'll just be a display with Earthquake. (I'm redoing the axles, suspension and putting the big engine back in)

Here's the video we made. I finally got Youtube to take it.
