None here either, living in a dark wooded area does have it`s perks.

I`ve been living here since the early 1960s while most of the folks living nearby are all on newer acreages. I`m not sure if any know their neighbours, for sale signs are a very common thing.

I had about 90 to 100 of the little buggers that were going door to door begging for candy and treats, should have saved the litter box treats instead of putting them in the compost bin. Lol

Yes, about an inch. Now that the column was moved the pedal could make contact with it if fully depressed

Slow learners with money to burn. Once in a while here some kids get caught street racing with their mom or dad`s cars, up to $1,000 fine and a week impound.

Rain likely tomorrow John, possible sleet as well. It sounds like you have a full time job working on your 56`s John.
How's your evening going Steve? I`m going to take my neighbour for a quick spin in my Mustang, the plates expire at night. It's going to be a long winter while the Mustang sits parked. I imagine your SHO really rocks too.
Just a few things because of the changes I made and a few improvements...nothing full time

No snow here, knock on wood.
Did a diaper run so that they're in the truck for tomorrow's trip to my brother, found them at $10 a 20 pack at Superstore so that means I can buy 6 packs there for the same price as 5 packs at Walmart. Not much of a saving but he's only got $190 in his personal needs budget and his expenses keep going up due to his care needs.
Today is clean up day around here so not much constructive gets done, electrician comes in on Monday so Saturday and Sunday are 2 busy shop days as the new electrical needs to get roughed in.

Hello John, Shaun, Steve, Perry, Grant and all who lurk here.

I need to reshape the aluminum brake pedal on my resto rod 53 as it`s too close to the steering column plus it's too high off the floor. It came with the brake booster master cylinder kit from Mid Fifties.
Only a few flurries earlier, now it's cloudy, windy, damp and very cool. Good to have a heated cab in the Bobcat.

Pretty much Steve, I'll be hooking up some boxes but he'll be doing the switches, 220 and dealing with the panel and the wiring on the milling machine. I haven't done enough wiring or done it consistent enough to guarantee its done %100 right. The roughing in is easy but takes up time and time is money when I'm paying the bill.
Its getting a bit nippy and I got more done than I expected to so it's a wrap for me, the last bit can be done tomorrow when I get home. On Saturday the walls will get opened up and holes will be drilled and maybe some boxes put in, just as long as its ready for Monday.

I have the same hanging brake pedal/booster/ master cylinder from CPP Morris in both trucks
