I'm not entirely sure what this "nicer" is you are referring to. You didn't get to witness the water pump leak, haha.

Good evening guys.
I dropped my truck this afternoon for them to replace the cracked Y-pipe.
They said I will get it back on Wed.

I'm game for either as well. This time I will bring at least $8 dollars with me. It wasn't so bad owing Andy $8, but now that he is President Andy........

I've been working on a crude plan to submit to the town for one of their projects they have me working on. During the elementary school renovation, the school buses were moved from their lot to the DPW garage lot. This has caused a space problem, and now they want to move them back to the school. This poses a problem, as they need block heater plugs, which they had before, but are no longer there. The service in the lot is the temporary one they installed for the job trailers, so that needs replacing as well. "I never want to do it again" the DPW boss said.

Here is what I have. It is crude, and may not show all the needed info, and I am not a architect or a draftsman, so cut some slack.

Aarons brother reporting here: i did in fact start to clean up those wheels, i just cant decide what color to do them, gloss black with a chrome lip, or 100% satin black. or keep each rivet chrome and the entire rim black...too many decisions!
