Sounds fascinating but that maybe 3,000 reasons for me to stay away. I might feel differently if I did check them out..

When it`s 90 F in the shade I`d probably be a cave dweller.
No news on my physical yet, I still have blood work to be done. I would have done it yesterday but there`s fasting involved.

Good evening

My basement is my favorite cave.
Not to hot and not to cool out here this week, just right for Goldielocks.
I'll send you a Pm about that transmission in a few days Morris, I've got a lot of things that I'm doing this week and once some of those things are looked after I can start focusing on projects for a bit.

I've been doing some easy but time consuming product searches, taking pictures, pricing and writing basic ads for my auction scores. Done this a lot before but with product lines that didn't need researching.

It`ll be a little while before I go to my doc again, I don`t expect anything drastic. Also time needed for the results to get to her, likely I find out some time next wk.
I was removing some parts out of 77 F150 and came across the transmission Perry. Hopefully I can make arrangements with my son to take it to Calgary the next time he goes.

Yeah this yard sale is a lot of work but its best to know what all these new in box things are worth and what some of them are used for. The biggest pain is writing down all the vehicles these brake pads and shoes fit on. A $26 part that gets sold for half price winds up fitting on 58 different model of vehicles in the GM line and Ford's and Dodge share some parts also. At least the newer cars use more vehicle specific parts. Came across some really pricey electronic control panels and they might wind up on eBay .

Next month I'll have some me time to straighten out this yard and I'll be looking at this truck and will be deciding if the 48 cab goes on the 75 F250 or if the motor, rad and a transmission goes into the 48 chassis. I need to measure the frames as the dually 89 axle is going to be used in this rebuild.

If I didn`t live out of town I`d like to have a yard sale Steve.
That sounds like either way it`ll be a neat project Perry, hopefully it`ll workout with the 75 frame. I always wanted a 50`s Ford truck on a newer Ford truck frame but it is a lot of work and most of the time it doesn`t end well.

Its an orphan project, I put together a deal for a friend of mine but the day before we were to pick it up he realized he was in over his head on it. My part of the deal was to do a yard clean up after wards for the Overland that we thought was a model T touring car. $900 later both of them are in my backyard .

It`s a good thing you have a large backyard, most folks don`t.
