i managed to get around town while the roads were covered in ice and snow... dumb cavalier with allseasons and no limited slip was not too fun. however, i did make it home with no close calls thankfully. i would of taken the a 4x4 with a little bigger tires, but i was stuck on the other side of town as the snow began to fall.

the 1st shows my meaty no so "all season" tires. in the 2nd pic i cleaned off the driveway to to gather all the snow i could for a snowball fight haha.

Worked like usual and got asked what I wanted for Christmas from Jody. Looks like I'll be getting a gift certificate to Sears for a big tool chest

Other than that I went Christmas shopping and still have a few left to get. My present for myself and the truck is just about complete. I'll be taking pics to post what all I get bought and to install

Has it seriously been a week already?!

Jeese... Time is flying by at a rapid rate!

I got my front right disk brake rebuilt / painted (caliper, backing plate, brackets etc), and rear right drum rebuilt / painted (left side of the truck is still on jack stands, lol) and about half my electrical done this week.

Rest of the week I either sat inside cause it was too cold to even think about going out to start a fire, or worked on forum member snoman87's truck

I cleaned up the Suburban I bought recently and found it to be in fairly good condition. I cleared the codes on it, but it still has an issue with running in gear/stopping. Still gotta fix that. I might end up selling it instead of parting it out.
