Good evening gang. Taking a break from some honey/daughter do's.

I've been working like Don this weekend between batch'n it, my weekend part time job and household chores.

Gotta go get cleaned up and meet momma for dinner.

Good evening everyone. Busy day today, busier tomorrow. Getting into the final stretch before taking off for two weeks.

Good morning Oregon FTE gang and friends.

I decided just to treat today like a normal work day... even though I don't have to be at work until 8:00 instead of 6:00.

Going to try to get finished putting primer on the bare wood so I can paint next weekend.

Morning Don. I love it when people actually want to work and then put me in charge... they'll certainly get what they want.

I'm so over primering the rafters on the pole barn. It's taking forever! The only way to do it is with a brush (short of renting a sprayer). That darn primer is so thin it drips all over no matter how careful I am. And I've got two coats of paint to look forward to next weekend.

I keep telling my wife and daughter... Some times it would be nice to do some mind numbing work like mowing the property with the lawn tractor. Hasn't happened yet.

Don, you have any good on-line sources for Ford part numbers?

I'm trying to figure out which year rear sway bars will fit my truck. I found one at the wrecking yard for 1/5 of a Hellwig sway bar but I want to make sure it fits before I spend the money and time removing it from the wrecked truck.

Too bad your not closer. I have a 6 gallon pressure pot sprayer you could use.......

I was prepared to just follow and do what the owners wanted me to do, but they said I had a much better idea of what needed to be done, and would follow my lead.....

We are all very happy with the way it worked and will do it again today!

Harley and I do most of our on-line parts buying from RockAuto. They are one of our sponsors here (FTE...) and have an excellent website with lots of pictures. I would take a look there first.....

Thanks Don, I'll take a look tonight. I'm off to Home Depot to return some extra lumber we bought yesterday and then to the farm to (long sigh) primer all day.

Good morning Tiny and Don. Got some work on the Bronco yesterday, fond a dirty ground. And then fond that the water pump on the Galaixe is done, got new parts on order and partly taken apart.
