Hello Morris, finished fabricating my brackets for my exhaust today and have the exhaust tack welded together so should be welding it all up tomorrow depending on how my back feels..

The other night my back was so sore that it woke me up so I used a power heat/massager that did wonders.
What did you use, exhaust manifolds or headers? I have a few different sets of headers but none of them would work with the 1980 Mercury front clip so I`m using a set of 351 stock manifolds, they are bigger than the 302 ones.

Glad I don't have to worry about headers with my trucks. Most morning it takes a Tylenol to get rid of the day before and a Tylenol at night so that I can get off the couch to get a coffee or snack.

I haven`t tried Tylenol yet, the heat massage helps my back enough to get by with.

I get the generic 625mg variation of Tylenol in a 200 count jar as it about .50 more than the 100 count, its like $12. Don't always need to take them, just when I'm working on paying jobs and I need to up the game on my part in order to stay on schedule. My body just gets tired and feels worn out when I'm busy, hardly take them during the winter.

Back to crappy weather, today brought lots of wind along with a few showers. It doesn`t sound great for Easter Weekend and the Draggins car show. The Draggins Registration

Guess we`re sharing the same kind of weather Perry, nothing good in this week`s forecast here either.
Getting it ready for the Easter Parade Gerry?

Took the 50 out for a spin today to blow the winter dust of it. Had Matthew and his friend with me and he thought it was really cool that it did not have seat belts. As we were driving and the drivers door was rattling I remembered that I had found some carrage bolts when I was cleaning up the garage this spring. When I got home I took the old bolts out of the door catch and put in the new bolts with some locktite. Hopefully that will keep the catch in place and keep the food from rattling.
