It seemed to be a slow weekend all over FTE. I never fired up mine over the last week. Went to town today and added water before I left, Than added water three more times to get to town. I was pretty sure I had blown a head gasket. I did the thing I hate and put stop leak in when in town and The Bronk healed thy self. I still need to gasket the timing cover but the Ranger is not near ready yet. The back window will be in next Monday so I need to limp The Bronk along till I get the rear glass and interior back in the Ranger.
The nice thing is that the sun is shinning hot and heavy and the clothing is coming off. What a beautiful day in the great north woods it is. The two prettiest girls in the Village just came by and got some fish net and net string to put on an inner tube and are heading for the beach. I will have to go down and be sure they are safe.

I am so busy with all the jobs I have and now I have no time for my
personal Bronco projects. I need to replace my carpet with the vinyl
flooring I got from JBG almost a year ago.
I guess I should not complain about the work, the Bronco CAN wait.
I looked at the James Duff website and I liked the SAS parts they have for
sale. I wonder if I could get those parts in RED.

Well i just got back form my trip to NC and i am happy to be back in the PNW. Yeah the east coast was nice cause there was a ton of sun and warmth but i missed TGM and my own bed. I got nothing to report except that ol TGM awoke from his 10 day sleep to rise once more and did pretty well. I gotta check all the fluids to make sure their good but it ran and drove great. Good luck in all your en devours guys.

Well im stuck in Fort Benning for the month. So no Bronco work here. Tho I did score a T5 for $75! Gonna begin the rebuild and swap it into my 68.
I think the Bronco needs a new starter relay nothing exciting tho.

Ah. That kind of sucks. I have been tossing around the idea of making a cargo net style thing that i attach to the inside roof of the top where i can put small items. I was thinking of using a sort of fishing net or something similar that i can use 4 screws and just bolt it up. I just haven't began finding everything.

It would also really only hold a note pad, my chilton manual, and my Atlas book. I am tired of them being in my room and bought them to keep in the truck but would rather them not clutter up the floor and get damaged.

Nope. I got 2 10-12" holes covered by square carpeting that i think the PO cut for speakers. I could try to make something for that. I don't remember what the depth of the inside is though cause i haven't taken it apart in a while.
