Good Tuesday morning Rhode Island, John, and Tim. Hope you enjoyed your weekend.
I was productive.
Saturday I fixed my brake line failure, processed the remainder of the material removed from the bus and did some cleaning around the projects.
Sunday I took the 1st chassis completely apart, removing the motor/transmission and driveshaft and 56 cab that was resting on it. Moved all those items over to the stripped bus for temp storage until I make room in the garage for the winter.
Monday went to my buddies house to grab my car trailer and ended up helping him build a deck..... The things we do for friends... Then at the end of the day came home and loaded up the bare chassis onto the car trailer for more processing then scrap time.

I could always go to a different scrap yard Saturday that is closer to the show...
but then I will not be able to work on my 56 crew at my buddies house... 
Sunday,
Yeah... I hate to miss a swap meet... that one time I don't go could have been the one... lol...
Maybe I can do both... burn a tank of fuel and drive around for 4 hours.
