I'll be around in Kent most of the week if you're serious, you can check out what I've done and go from there.

@Sparky reading the winch thread now, some nice wiring.

So I got this neat thing moved into my garage this weekend. Scored it off my neighbor who was moving out of state and didn't want to transport it. Got a good deal. Just need to re-route my garage door up to the trusses and remove the garage door motor and we'll be lifting the '65 Chevy to the ceiling and parking/working underneath it.




Also hit a milestone on the way to work today. I always miss the photo op. Oh well. Doing the math - since I bought the Ex it has cost me $2 a mile, not factoring in diesel...

Jimmy Mac's does sound good, been a while too.

Anyone know what these came off of? 15" 5x5.5 Ford Wheel.




Edit: looks like they came off a 1982-1984 F150

We have some sad news today
Tim Conway has passed away.

We are loosing the older actors too quickly now and the younger ones don't have any class.

On a positive note!

I love that my diesel filler hole will fit the large semi truck diesel pump!
That thing fills crazy diesel fast and empties the monies from my pocket just as fast... hehe
