John; My truck's still in the garage. I'll be taking it to work this week. A friend has a roll back tow-truck, and offered to take it to work for me. I'm going to make some patterns for my fuel pump mount so I can build it over the winter. Other than that, I'll be cleaning, and repairing the inner fenders, Making a battery box, and about a dozen or so other little project's. I also have a shopping list I'll peck at over the winter. If I get away without coaching baseball this summer(ya right!), I may get an early start this spring.

Is there a corner your brother could spare for you to work on it over the winter, maybe your brother could help. Be a good bonding project, maybe you could sell him that line. Who knows maybe it could work for you, got to try all the angles...lol

I can't leave it in the shop, but it will be inside a trailer. If I want I can just back the trailer into a loading dock and roll it into the shop. The only problem is, that if I'm at work on a weekend, I end up working on company stuff, or driver's bother me to no end. Weekend's are also very busy hockey wise. I do have enough to keep me busy at home in my free time. We'll see how it goes.

At least there is no shoveling involved , just a light dusting covering the hard surfaces. It should warm up enough and rain later.
