June 11th is the 2nd annual Performance Inc/Sparta school parking lot car show and monster truck with 66" tire 6 car, car crush!

And you have to drive a 79 Ford truck that is diesel power. I have to drive a blue truck with a rail buggy on the trailer! And of course RC has to drive a Flat bump or ol Rip?

Chip has to at least show up and Dave will rock the new motored Ford.

Yeah, the shop isn't actually putting on the show this year, but I will be there for some mechanical mayhem.

RC's truck is killing me. I thought I was going to have some color down by now, but after the last blocking, I found a bunch of spots I wasn't happy with, ....SOOOooooo, I had to buy more primer and shoot one more coat. I think that's 6 coats on the hood with a blocking in between each one and 4 on the cab with a blocking in between each one. It's still not perfect, but you won't be ashamed to drive it around. I still hope to have the grey down by the end of the day.

Jeff. Yes, June 11th is the day I plan on doing my 6 car pyramid practice crush. August 20th is the tentative date for the 20 car pyramid in Kansas.

Evening All!

The first bit of color is down on RC's cab. The roof and the center of the hood are grey. I have to mask off where the red goes and shoot that tomorrow. I still never got the hauler looked at. I guess tomorrow is another day for that.

If it is close to you then it's close to me. I need names, numbers and addresses.

At least I'm making a little bit of progress on my truck. I picked up a gas tank and fuel lines today. As soon as the sending unit gets here I'll get it all installed. It'll be nice to have a good clean fuel system.

Good Morning folks.

Well ol blue started right up and ran like a scalded dog to work, so Alan you are were spot on with the carb adjustments, thanks again for everything.

I think ol blue is making a trip to Spg this afternoon and let it stretch it legs a bit.

Parts needed: A headliner with the thin black vinyl overlay that has the small lines in it.

I do for sure, and I hear you do to. Now get that flat bump running and that way when ol Rip gets done and you will have 2 old ones too drive around too.

I hope that engine is ok and you just left a socket or a wrench under a valve cover....probably not, but I am hoping its an easy fix for you.

Good Morning Everybody!

Off to the shop to sand more metal and spray more paint on this thing clogging up my shop for the last two weeks.
