Sensational Saturday Washington, Tim, Ken, Steve, Ken, Sean and all the crew stopping by.
The lift looks nice and now Maria can keep all the vehicle maintenance caught up. It will be interesting to hear what the company says about those scratches!

I have never saw one that was movable just bolted to the floor!

Our salesman was on Friday, hopefully he does something. I didn't know any of them were movable either until I started shopping for one. It's really going to be handy as in the winter I can move it to the other side of the pole barn and toward the back for storage.

Evening Tim, I have to admit I was wondering when you were going to bolt it down.

I've totally got lift envy right now!!

Pulling this dang engine would've been 100x times easier with a lift vs messing with floor jacks, jackstands and rolling around on the ground! Hehe. I just got it pulled, took a pic and here I am taking a break.

Yup yup Tim that's the little VW TDI that I'm getting ready for the little ranger!

Now with the VW I'll grab the parts that are easy to sell and them have it hauled off for scrap.

Merry Monday afternoon Washington, Tim, Ken, Ken, Steve and all the crew.
350Ken, looks and sounds like a project you have going. What year is the Bug?
Tim, I am sure that lift will make things much easier over the long haul. With your skills, make you a frame the lay on the lift and you can put the lawn tractor it and easily work the underside!

Started the morning at 64°, some sun and then overcast. Saw a high of 74° and we just had a brief shower and now sun. The say more rain early evening.

Yeah the truck has been a fun little project right now distracting me from other projects! Haha

The Bug is a '68 that I got from my parents that were the original owners and the car I rode home in on my mom's lap when I was born.

Good morning Washington.

No internet this morning, I'm surfing on my phone and the Verizon network. I was one of the lucky ones yesterday and still had phone during the VZW outage.

I have to go read water meters after bit.
