Thx John & Morris about the broken ankle, some days it still bothers me,

John the cab is looking good, well done so far

 

Morning boys. Woke up to 4" of snow on the deck...and everywhere else in the yard. Oh well, we had a great run of awesome weather!! Luckily we just finished our job out of town yesterday, so won't have to finish it in this snow. We still have to clean up and silicone some penetrations but just a couple hours work.


Gerry, the ankle story sucks, and I know a few people that went through that same scenario. Some of the early 4-wheelers didn't have full floorboards and the same thing would happen. I didn't hear from the guy yesterday, so not sure if he got it going or not. Morris, parts are easily available for them. They were quite popular in their day and even today they are still desired to restoration guys and collectors. I was doing some research and a guy could build one from used parts accumulated through the internet


Great work on your project John... every now and then I get the urge to tear the engine out of my 1990 and have something to tinker with over the winter. I fear that I really don't have the time for that, and I would wind up with a carcass and a project I can't finish and once again, sell a truck I think I'll just leave it like it is for a while.


Have a great day guys!! We're over the hump!!

 

Happy Thursday mornin'all. Snowing here this morning. Dawn and Kalan are off to a hockey tourney in Fargo. I told her to wait till 10am to leave. Have a great day guy's.

 

Thats right Sherm, there were no floorboards in my Dads 3 wheeler

good luck to Kalan Grant, safe trip

 

Good morning everyone, it's a very dark dreary day and threatening snow in the forecast

 

Thanks Gerry, I might see what it is like to start scuffing the new primer later this afternoon with hopes of getting the bed liner on it.

 

I`m lucky I never had any broken bones over the yrs, just a few sprains.
We got about 4" of fresh snow here too, it`s a bit slippery over top of the ice.
Goodluck on that Honda Sherm, let us know what happens. What shape is the 1990 engine in? Last night I sold an 88 F150 4X4 that ran well but the body was quite rusty, the new owner is going to use it on his farm so no worries about getting pulled of the road.
You`re getting our left over snow in Manitoba Grant, it get to you as well John.

 

It just started here now Morris, they say only 2-5 cm's expected. Hope they are wrong and we get less and not what you got.

 

I have my fingers crossed for you John, I`m not a big fan of snow any more.

 

Unfortunately I have to take what comes Morris, but so far I have no complaints, we usually have a foot by now.

 

We`ve been lucky so far John, I`m more concernied about cold over Christmas then I am about a bit of snow.

 

I'm not looking forward to those nasty cold temperature either.

 

So far there is nothing showing real cold in the forecast but a lot chiller.

 

We were fortunate on the snow part and only got an inch. It rained though so there is ice covering on everything. Went to Regina yesterday for eye appointments and the highways were great, today they are really slippery.

 

I`m heading to town for a slip tank of diesel so I`ll find out what the roads are like here.
