Holy crap! A buddy just called and told me about a Lincoln stretch limo with a bad 460 for 500 bucks! And it's only 10 miles away! I do have a nice 460 setting in storage..........

Just might go take a look at it......

No rain here, foggy and 50.
Got to put the canopies back on both Rangers, change oil in one, and hang some 4' shop lights in the garage today (love free stuff!)

Gonna run a few mags thru AKs tomorrow.

The scrap metal people will do all the heavy stuff. I'll just sit back, drink coffee and supervise.

I was going to strip the jacks, stove, hot water tank and other stuff from my sisters camper and then decided against it. Just going to get the "new" cat heater we put in for her a few years ago and let it go. That was part of the point in letting the scrappers come out..........get rid of a bunch of the old junk. We have already gotten about $300 out of the scrap metal.

After that I'm going over to my nieces for free pizza!

Evening guys, just in to watch the race. Got the trim back on the 76 and put in a choke and worked on the brake light switch. Plus got both SHO's up and running.
Pictures of that limo Don, we need pictures!!

Evening Charlie. It looks like a late 70's limo. I'm happy with the progress on the grinder. Should have it done in the next couple days.

I see lots of sharpening projects coming your way.

I guess the new building can become a machine shop one day.....

I see a lot of iron work coming my way.......lol

I'm not counting on power at the new building anytime soon. It will cost a minium of 5K to install the power pole. They have to blast a hole in solid rock........
