Fall is upon us September shenanigans thread

September already, which is quite fine for me. I hate mowing & yard work.

Speaking of yard work, my weed eater magically reappeared today.

Stop rushing it! I still have 4 more hours of August left!

RC, you wreck my paint job and there's gonna be hell to pay!

I spent the afternoon playing with hard lines. The good news is, HR has shift linkage now, thanks to RC. I should have the fuel system done tomorrow, hopefully.

Dan thank you for firing up the Sept thread. I just sold the early Bronco hard top that I had, to a guy who got the lead on it from a customer of mine at the swap meet....

good morning missouri.... good deal with the sale of the hard top rich.. add that to what ya made at the swap.. and you did fairly well...

i dont know what to get into yet today.. i need to prioritize my projects..i have 3 weeks till the next swap meet... seems like a lot of time.. but it will go by fast

i should get the seat out of 'ole rip' and over the the upholster.. so i can start on the interior clean-up, paint, dash remodel and carpet.. i am seriously thinking of installing the C6 and auto steering column..

would also like to get the bronco's swapped around and both running

or i could take a day or two off .. sit somewhere with my feet up and see if my poor legs and knees would heal themselves...

Morning all!!

Hopefully getting something done truck related this weekend, even if it is airing up a tire or two and moving a truck. I'm getting restless with so much to do and can't figure out what to start first lol
