Painting is finished, the carwash is ready, and Valvoline stopped by today to put the final touches on the lube bays. Except for signs and of course our business licenses and permits to be wrapped up we are ready to go!!! I spent this afternoon at a local sign co. to get an estimate on our signs, they will be coming out tomorrow to see what needs to be done.

We do have a couple employees already and they were taking care of painting and since they were done today I decided to show them the proper way to do a complete drive-train flush and fill. Econowheeler was enlisted for this job, I had them change every fluid in the beast from the brake fluid to the diffs just to see how things worked. Everything went smooth and easy except that the gearoil guns nozzle needs to be flex hose instead of hard tube. I couldn't get to the trans fill hole, I had to get a piece of hose and feed it up and in. It popped out a couple times and spit gearoil all over so guess what I smell like? Forgot how much I missed wearing gearoil as Cologne.

Man that system Valvoline has is sweet, except for the gearoil snafu it was a clean operation from beginning to end.  I can't wait to really use this stuff.

We are still looking for a warehouse for tires, we have everything else ready on that end too, all the machines are here and hooked up.
