Well, I only found one wheel, but looks like the's an exact match to what you brought down...guess if we stick with them, we'll have a compatible wheel for a spare.

Dan, get with me about your trailer plans.

Yup, with all the banging and bouncing around I think it make give us some peace of mind. I mean, since you have it right there with the equipment.... Well, as you know ... I'm always on the over engineering side of things.

3Mike6 - I started a gig pulling Data and Voice cable at the New Target in Lathrop today. If I'm still there next week I could come by after work and help or talk while you work some on Thumper. I go in at 5a and get off at 2p so it gives me some time in the afternoon to kick it and work on Thumper if need be. This offer might be limitted as I'm looking at two other positions that uses my talents better in SF or Concord at this point as well.

So the offer is out there. What do you think? Anything you might need me to help with next week? Camaro project stalled ... Rick is buried at work ... but, still plans on finishing by end of month.

Later - AJ

Thanks AJ...but we kinda hit a holding pattern with the steering, no use you adding time to the commute home and trying to get back up early to get to work.

But feel free to drop by and shoot the breeze..Lathrop is about 40-45 minutes away.

Oh...hey, if you're not working on Saturdays, then maybe stop by on Friday? This way we can do some welding and stuff, and you won't get burned out driving back home and having to get up early...in a late afternoon, we should be able to patch up the front crossmember and get the tranny X-member done...coudl also be a time to put the Mig in you hands and see what you can do!
