No, not all of it. I'll start with the front axle. I still need to clean and coat a few more pieces, before I can assemble it, and then replace the old Dana 30 that's on the frame now. That one will go to scrap.

Sounds about right. We were bonused well last year, but not nearly enough to make up the hours I put in.

I have to get some more POR-15, and a couple of cans of Chassis Black from Eastwood also.

I know it's been a while since I last stopped in, sorry about that. Bill I see some congratulations are in order. Sorry it's so late. Congratulations on the leadership. Not sure if anyone is planning on making the Washington TWP. Fire hall swap meet this Sunday. But I'll be there. Here's to hoping to score some truck parts.
