Good evening everyone.

Had a drill sergeant from Fort Benning come out for one of our Future Soldier functions. This guy brought back some memories!


Sorry for the crappy audio, the echo was awful.

 

In my day the only difference was I had a deep raspy voice and I pushed the hell team to preform as one. Oh yea I was Navy...

 

It is relatively clean, rust is just starting to form on the rear arches and there is a fair amount of bubbling on the lower pass side front fender. The door locks are temperamental, I stand by the door pressing the key fob constantly until the drivers door unlocks (most of the others work fine) which is aggravating.
To be honest I don't like driving it, though. It's kinda small. I'm used to the pickup or my old Bronco.

No John that's my old reliable blue and white.

 

My buddy had the same vintage explorer and I always thought it felt very small and confined inside. I never liked driving it either. The site lines out the front corners were a little rough and made it feel even smaller.

 

Glad you were able to get it done.

 

Morning


Super Bowl Sunday and we are ready for the game.


Went out this morning and watched the dogs go nuts around the wood pile. Guessing there are chipmunks in there that tease the heck out of the dogs.

 

Good morning everyone!

Warm day for us out here, we're in the 30's. This is the last of the warmth, we're seeing more negative temperatures this week. Looking forward to the Super Bowl today and a long weekend up next.

 

Good morning Connecticut folks...how about some football??

 

Blew a heads gasket on 84 towing the bobcat. Got all of it home, looks like that 460 swap is happening sooner than expected

 

Sorry to hear of the bad luck. Good thing you were already planning on a swap!

 

Hello, warm day here too. Got up into the mid 40's just in time for more snow tomorrow

 

That sucks, sorry to hear that considering you just got the truck back on the road.

 

Are you planning any kind of build for the 460? Or just a refresh? Sorry to hear about the head gasket.

 

I was planning on heads cam intake headers fresh bearings and headers if everything checks out. Now it's carb adapter plate and put it in till the $ is free

 

Yeah. Certainly changes plans.
