Cool deal. I went to Chucks Trucks today and talked to chuck for a while. He is going to follow me to citrus and check out this new mud hole we found. It makes SeaWorld look like a tiny mud puddle. I hope to get the BIG boys out there!

I got the track bars back on and fixed the Alt problem today. I think she's about ready.

Sweet...
Got a question for you...if you had just a std grinder, what type of pad and compound would be best to do a finish buff on a cheap paint job...like available at autozone kinda stuff.  This is cheap paint after a quick wet sand.  Enamel.

Then I started to put the bracket for the horse collar together.  But I got tired so that was it.

HA! I knew there was a transmission under there, guess I know what I'm doing with my free time this week.  Should I paint it, or just clean it?

You got some mice for those mighty PYTHONS?


Scott-style bench press...HA! I about got obliterated last time I changed a clutch. Small guy though, so maybe that had something to do with it.

I utilized the same method and everything, but forgot to eat me Wheaties or something.
