hi all,
its a chilly one here this morning. no frost yet tho..
congrats jerry on your wedding. i was in omaha for a week last month and i went down to negus and had a nice visit with the guys. i got to hang out with sean negus, steve sledge, bob kathal, jerry welch, dart, and i helped sean put 2 drivers in a freightliner tractor. fritz told sean that the power divider was bad and it wasn't. i showed the good ole boys how to test it. that was fun. man has that place changed. sean had the truck shop remodeled and t-145 is now a wrecker. which i was trying to talk them into years ago. at 1 point i had a wrecker that i was willing to sell them but bob hayworth said no.
i did talk to greg negus and jeff, and doug gipe for a few minutes. then i had to go pick up my brother at omaha foreign. then i got to see adam burks car that he was killed in. man what a mess.

 

PM sent......

 

i retro'd a tranny in a 64 covertable 700r4, it had a 409 in it. that was fun.
the guy loves it. that was the first 409 i have seen and worked on in 30 years.. that was cool.

 

there's a guy out here that has a 50 buick with a staight 8 in it.... the tranny is a cast iron dyna glide in it...

 

Rob is old enough to remember the dinosaurs......




Yeah, I know, I'm older than you....couldn't resist Rob!

 

way cool, jack! i have only had experience with 455's, but i loved mine!

 

so am i. i started out in auto salvage. way before i became a mechanic... and got into diesels and all that stuff..

 

darrell,
my first car i built from nothing!! it was a 65 ford galaxy 2 dr hrdtp. that car was good at drive in movies. because the seats folded into a bed. real cool!! i wished i never sold it. does that make us old?

 

Kind of like a Nash

 

kind of tony.... but bigger and more room. that car was cool. even if it came from the salvage yard.

 

afternoon guys,i remember those old cars and i'm still young,lol they were cheaper back then too,the old cars we scrapped out would make a grown man cry,bought a 69 super bee for 200 bucks and sold it right away for 400 bucks and thought i did good, oh well,54 buick for 15 bucks,needed the shaft fixed what was the starter button and ran like a dream,could go on but makes me sick to think of all them we tore up,gas was 30 cents a gal,oil 15 cents a qt, good ole days
