Re: What did y'all get done this weekend?
I ran my butt off in the rain all week. I think I washed my truck 5-6 times just trying to keep it clean. Saturday i went to my daughters volleyball tournament. They are playing in a 4 stop tournament. They won every match so they move to the gold division for the next stop.
Sunday I slept in a little and skipped the 9:00 am service. I made the 11:00 am service then took the family to lunch. I spent the rest of the afternoon fixing the timer on my swimming pool, then detailing my 04 Dodge. Tomorrow it goes to a consignment lot....:metal: |
Re: What did y'all get done this weekend?
i watched about 6 hours of some show called "the closer"
it's -17 degrees here (with windchill). I just about froze my A$$ off in the two minutes it took to grab my headers out of the garage so i could take pics for Billa. |
Re: What did y'all get done this weekend?
New pinion oil seal. Stopped diff leak, tranny leak, and oil pain leaks.
Now I can park in my nice, clean driveway! |

Saturday, cut up some more trees, pulled a stump or two, then froze my tush off at my son's soccer game. At least they won. Today, after we got the wife out on her road trip, the son and I finished (lord I hope so) hauling tree debris out, replaced a wheel barrow wheel, and changed a light bulb on the outside of the shop. Said hello to the truck as I went by it about a dozen times.
Oh yeah, got the Dodge dirtier, but said clean can wait till tomorrow. |

First time I have driven it in 14 months!

Well I finished the body work on the bed the repop tailgate (what a PITA) I also test fitted the bed on the chassie. Kinda siked to see some body panels on it for a change since I took it apart two years ago. Attached are a couple picks with all the air out of the bags and before you say it I know I need bigger wheels and tires. Next weekend I should have primer on the bed and tailgate. Then I start the reassembly to make sure everything fits before paint.

I scored some patch panels from a guy who was going to restore, but sold the truck. I figure i got about 120-130 bucks worth of panels for 40 bucks. http://tkfiles.storage.msn.com/x1piY...YV3lYiaS7Gat0A
also took possession of a 82 suzuki gs450.....for free :) Should be getting the tins later this week. http://tkfiles.storage.msn.com/x1piY...gJPexFmQo_CDyg |

Nothing on the truck this weekend.

Re: What did y'all get done this weekend?
Didn't actually work on the truck, but did spend a lot of time at the swap meet here in Wichita. Went Friday morning with a buddy of mine, but went through it all pretty quick. Worked Friday afternoon, but got up early Saturday to get there when they opened and spent another 4 1/2 hours going through everything. Bought some billet wirelooms for my camaro, and got several things for the truck: new flexplate, chrome mirrors, factory ac control assembly, and traded in my old front bumber (bent by a honda civic delivering pizzas) for a straight replated original. Now if only the weather would warm up some so I can get back to welding in sheetmetal... and I still have the whole front suspension to replace!

Re: What did y'all get done this weekend?
I moved my 77 corvette out of a friends garage cuz he needs the space and i found the biggest puddle of tranny fluid possible. So tommaro i willhaveto find the problem. I was thinking of dropping a 4 speed in anyways.

Re: What did y'all get done this weekend?
I was showing a friend my air ride setup and he asked "Did you mount the front shocks?" I didn't understand why he would ask what seemed to be a silly question, then he aid "well, you didn't connect the top of the rears".
I scratched my head and looked under the truck. Sure enough, my shocks were just standing straight up. The top bolts were nowhere to be found. I hadn't installed the top half of my shock relocator kit, so I figured now was a good time. I thought my truck was a little bouncy. |

Got my C-10's interior completely stripped, some cowl area interior rust spots [that were doubling as water fountains] on both sides repaired/sealed and did the initial mounting of the aftermarket A/C air handler in the dash.
Oh yeah. Almost forgot. Also stoked the woodstove about 4 dozen times to keep the garage temp at a reasonable level. PS: I lied. It took me two weekends, not one. |
Re: What did y'all get done this weekend?
I promised myself that I would clean up the office and shop before I tackled the exhaust system so I spent the weekend cleaning the office. What a mess. I never realized that I hadn't put any magazines away in almost 6 years. I guess that the ever narrowing path to the computer desk should have been a clue.:crazy:
