Good morning guys!

Trucks look good Brandon. Although the '02 could use a bath. Projects like your 84 can take forever sometimes but always worth it when your done.

i don’t stress about it, it runs when I need it to. That’s the beauty of a carb vehicle, simple problems simple fixes. We’ll see how the conversion to the EFI 460 E4OD goes. Yes the 02 was dirty, first pic I came across, generally take good care of my vehicles inside and out. Loved that truck, my brother just bought an 01 SCrew in that beautiful dark blue, made me nostalgic/jealous. He’s not much for wrenching but I think I buried him in about 40 texts without a reply of mods and upgrades for it

Hey diesel, got the fire table rolling and the tikis going, sadly it's only 35 but I got a couple nice Cohibas going and what I'd consider a decent bottle of Scotch cheers friend


Backyard project

My wife and I are going to do a fire table of some sort when we get our deck built. Cohibas are good. Having a Bloody Mary on the back patio right now. It's only 94 at the moment. Back to the colder weather tomorrow afternoon.

Good evening guys!

Busy day here working around home. Didn't end up raining which was nice so changed from working on the 7.3 to washing and servicing the lawn mower, then mowing the lawn. After that I got the street rod fired up and moved to the shop and washed and serviced that as well. Helped the wife with a few honey do projects and now having a beer and grilling some supper.

That is one busy day Troy.

My laptop seems to have gone kaput today. I was reading a book I had downloaded and the laptop shut down. Now even plugged in it won't power back up. Should make Monday morning at work difficult.

Good morning. Leave for the airport in a couple hours. Always hard to leave but also nice to get home.

Must feel like good air conditioning compared to that 98 degree temps you had down there. Haha.
