Hey, according to popular legend, there is more than 1 body never retreived from Odell over the years.

Nice red bumpside, kid!

Treat her good and she'll do the same for you.

Oh, and I agree, that black box looks pretty good in that red bed!

Shiny side up!

Well, made it back. Bad news. The kid broke the boat so we aren't going in the morning. We're going to have to wait until Saturday - and the conditions report for Saturday isn't looking near as good.

Wow tonight was a struggle. Started out with one non-working tail light, ended up with an entire right rear light (tail light, reverse, side marker). Had to pull myself away because I knew it wasn't getting better.

(And my swearing wasn't making the neighbors too happy....)

Check the ground wire. It's what's common to all the filaments.

I did, it was weird, I got 12v when checking with the multimeter grounded to the bumper. I unscrewed the ground wire, cleaned it (with WD40, which may not have been the best choice) It seems to be somewhere deeper

Be careful what your order from LMC. I've had a lot of problems with parts from them, and so have a lot of other guys. I'll go to them if no one else has the parts. I can hook you up with some other suppliers, if you like!

Hey, if it was on my cars, I'd be all over that! Did get some garage time last night, cleaned up the area on the cowl where I have to drill out the spot welds, and got started building the new dolly for the cab. Need to stop and get a few more 2x4's on the way home tonight. I dont' want to start pulling the cowl and dash, until I have that on the new dolly.

I got the new renters in yesterday and they are happy. Harley and I filled the hot tank and turned it on last night and lathe parts will go in today! I've got two service calls to make today then Harley and I will start working on the lathe. I've had 6 calls to do lathe work already, and don't even have it back together yet.........

That wouldn't work for me, I'd have his butt busy all the time!
