I'm in for lunch. I haven't even made it to Lee's truck yet. I did and axle seal in an '08 Malibu. I swapped four tires and wheels around. (First tire customer! Woo Hoo!) I refinished a part for a guy, and sent the core engine back to the scrap yard.

Now I can start on what I planned to do this morning. Lee's truck should have tunes before too long.

That sounds like a plan RC. I have no idea what this thing weighs. I wish there was a feed scale close by. I have the burned up transmission that goes with it too, so there's a little more weight.

Lee is gonna be rockin' out now. I just finished up his tunes and put the dash back together. The new stereo sounds great! There's still more to do, though. This poor truck has had a hard life.

The Chevy truck I just put the engine in died on the guy's wife just now. She said she was driving along and it just shut off. I hope it's nothing I did. It can't be. I made sure it was all right. I guess I'll see when it gets back down here. It's up on Kearney st. right now. I'm betting the fuel pump went south.
