It's not looking so good on my end....I believe I've been volunteered to assist with chores at the in-laws. FIL had his foot crushed in some machinery at work, so the "outdoor" stuff at his abode is being neglected.

 

Doesn't sound all that bad. You could be redoing their kitchen with MIL looking over your shouder. LOL

Good luck

 

Ain't THAT the truth...Hope it's a productive day for everyone!

 

Neal should be by sometime during the day, family GTG in Roan Mountain happened to fall on the same day SO I will probably be there early in the morning and leave around noonish.

 

We will be getting started around 11:00. Feel free to stop by. If you are coming this way earlier you can stop by and support the Riffraff Diesel Sharks soccer team. It is at Persimmon ridge park right before the Tractor dealership before Jonesborough on the right. Literally on the way. Just minutes before you get to my house. The game starts at 10:00 and is done by 11:00. If you are here earlier than that, stop by the house if you want. We can ride together if you like.

 

I am sorry that I am working this time.
I was realy wanting to come and meet my TN ford bros!
Some day soon I hope, next time!?!

i was hoping to find a way to make it but my head gasket popped last thursday so i started tearing the engine down and i gotta put it back together this weekend..

 

I got some wiring to deal with, the 73 needs the lift wired up to a battery, then electrical problem solved to get it working. Once the 73 is drivable, I have to repair the faulty wiring on the lift in the 99 to get it working right, it has a short in the door leads and a power source pulling from the circuit board that needs re soldered.

 

Well. I spoke with Ray last week and it looks like his wife has something planned for him too soooo, here is the new list. I had to add to it just to make it not look too wimpy.

PROJECTS:
1.) Intercooler install '97 F-250
2.) Heck I might as well do brakes, oil, fuel and air filter changes on my truck since nobody else is coming
3.) Might just install a 302 in the car in the shop also.
4.)
5.)
6.)


Who is coming
1.)Neal 97 250 all day
2.)ccarrier all day!
3.)JDecker for an hour or two.
4.)
5.)
6.)
7.)
8.)
9.)
10.)


After I just added a couple of my projects to the list I think we will have plenty to do for just two people. LOL. Those were just filler projects. Probably gonna drink alot of beer and get greasy all day. LOL.

I guess the two of us will just have to handle it ourselves.
No biggie though. Because we will have another one later in the year. The winter months seem to be the best. Nobody is plowing fields, cutting hay or working overtime repairing our great road system. LOL

 

I can't fit this into my schedule for Saturday, but I might try to get to a future one. If I don't get to it before then, I want to remove about 3 or 4 leafs from my rear springs on the F5. The current 12+4 leaves makes for a pretty stiff ride.

 

bunch of excuses is all im hearing

 

LOL.
That's OK. That just leaves more beer for us, huh?

 

heck yea....

 

We had a decent turnout. I was surprised because I thought it was going to be a bust. Had 5 people there, well 6 counting my son. LOL
One neighbor, myself, ccarrier, JDecker and another member here dne99fe.
Thanks to all you guys for showing up. We got the intercooler completely installed and sucessful. Good turnout and had a good time.
It's always fun to get people together like that.

Maybe once it gets colder out we can have a big GTG like we did last year at the wing place. I believe we can do it again.

 

Neal, I really like the idea of the GTG's that you guys have, especially the one's where you get to actually work on the trucks. I guess I am in a bad location to take part in those as it seems that they are about 200 miles away for me.
If we do another one like the one at the wing place count me in.
