I changed gears yesterday and decided to work on things getting the truck back to one piece.. SO I look my cleco’ed pieces out.. and cut the frame in the rear under the top hat area and moved it in..  then started measuring.. and trimmed everything to where I think it should just plug back together..

I think I am ready to slide this baby together today!!!! But… I kinda want to dust it off one more time… 😎  Sorry Scott… But it will look so awesome and get rid of the last remnants of rust and paint and ugly.. 😎

Love you Scott!!!!  😎  Thanks for giving me something to do everyday…. 😎  I wanna ride four wheelers at the dune by you!!!

I would love to race again.. Thats for sure..   Just been messing so much shit up on my own shit lately.. makes me wonder if I have been trying to have TOO much fun? and need to back it down a tad…. 😎  😎  Work got me here…. seems like I should be concentrating on that… 😎 😎

Let me get my truck back together and then I will look towards Glenn Helen..

I don’t want to be a quitter….  I have a sweet start on a sweet car…

I have a couple people on instagram asking for video..  😎  Funny how popular this is… and some people still think and wonder if I am going back all stock… 😎 😎 😎 😎  I think it should go back together smoothly.. Gonna be sweet when I can get it off this big ass jig!!!!!  I guess we are going to have to shorten a dolly to put it on!!!!!  May have to make something different for the roll over feature….  Or maybe just move the beam mounts on the dolly??  and still have it hang out the front? and use the old roll over?  hum.. back to it…

I thought and think about something Jeff told me years ago when I was all excited about getting my stuff paid off..  He said I would just buy something else… I really didn’t believe him. but he was right… They made it soooooo easy to buy this other property since we own 801 and 813 already…. 😎  and I forsee me trying to buy every lot that comes up for sale on kimball now… 😎  I want to own the whole damn street!!!

 

You were right on Jeff.. Thanks for the insight… 😎

I decided to take the “extra’ oil cooler and filter off,  it was hanging low, obviously. and I don’t want that to happen again… since I know Audrey likes to OFFROAD!!!

Audrey bought a house down the street from the shop….. 850 Kimball!!! I am excited to have her so close!!  But it is a TOTAL FIXER UPPER… Not even inhabitable right now… 😎   But work has begun!!!  I think Audrey should start a thread about the home rebuild!!!
