The chevy is taking my parking spot, at the very least it pays the bills. I'm tired of working on that stupid truck though. We get it done ready to go then he gets a new idea. Now he wants to do the rear end. Posi with 4.10's.

Yes it's a paying job, though I might make more money had I charged him for parking.

Worked on a 91 F150 5.0L today. I want to know who designed that ugly intake manifold? That needs to come off to change the vc gasket.

I will post pictures when I can.
He is a purebred Pitt bull. Consequentially, My older half sister (no relation to my dad) bred Pitt bulls so we have had 20-30 of 'em over the years. My dad himself has had 2 other Pitts, he seems like a cool dog, I've just called him "Dog" so far. He's been our co-pilot for a few hours, he doesn't mind the truck, it's just way to big for him to jump out of so we have to pick him up.
My dad, over the years, has had several different dogs (most of which 20-30 years before I was born) I've only had a couple. Oh, he pants a lot, I hope its just cause he is a little thirsty, he shouldn't be hot at all, but he will pant, then stop, then do it again, almost like he enjoys to pant? Also, he shakes a little, not sure why...cold maybe?
He likes me, he's already tried to lick me, which I HATE.
Just so ya know, he is red (reddish brown) everywhere except his belly, which is white, and his nose is pink.
Also, when my dad first got him 2 days ago, you could see every bone in his body, my dad let him spend the night over at our friends house for 2 nights, and he gained about 5 pounds. (Which is good, he needs to gain a little weight)
