Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Yesterday I got the 2020 Mustang GT vert out of our cold storage building to start the spring clean up. Not really much to do other than check the oil and go over it with a spray quick detailer.
Looks like Wednesday is the first cruise day top down cruise day temp wise.

Spent 5 hours at the urgent care. Lots of queue time. I felt like I'd been knee-capped. Nope, just Uncle Arthur(itis) moving into my knees. Starting off with pills, and working up to ?

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I hope the pills take care of it for you.

Started cutting down my Austree.

My advice is don't plant one. I started this one by poking a hole in the ground and sticking a cut off branch in the hole. Then poked a bunch of holes all the way around it and kept pouring water in the holes to keep the ground saturated.
That thing grew like crazy and made a beautiful tree for about 8 years, then it started deteriorating. It only took about 2 years until the trunk split down the middle and it started rotting in the center. Time to cut it down before it falls into the farmers field after he gets his crops in.....

The last picture is my trusty old Homelite 20" Super XL, that I bought new, I think in 1982 or 83. I still starts and runs great I wish I could say that for the MAC 110. My father in law bought it new but I don't know the year. It starts great first thing in the morning but once you shut it off or it runs out of fuel it will not start again until the next morning. I have threatened to take the 3# maul to it a few times but it sure is handy when it starts....:(

Thanks! I'll know if they'll work, in a few days.

I took my Mother in Law to pickup her Corvette after having it detailed at Rising Phoenix Customs https://www.facebook.com/LeatherneckAutoDetail. He did a great job.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I bet she gets some confused looks when people roll up next to her. Not what most would expect. Good for her!!!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

She does get some people doing a double take. She calls it Sunday, 'cause that's the day she takes it for a drive. Her daily driver is a 2006 Jeep Wrangler with 32" tires.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I understand. When I drive my wife's X7 BMW people look at me like I've stolen it. Long haired tattooed biker driving that? I actually bought it for her. I am allowed to take it to the gas station, or drive on a long trip.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

She's not your regular old grandma. ;)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Now she is rocking it
Makes me wonder what she drove through out her life

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

What was that blue blur?

My mother-in-law on her way to church. :D

Nice looking car, and good for her!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Does Granny grab gears in that beast?

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

No , No she's not.
She talks about a Jaguar XKE she had before my wife was born. She was driving a VW Beetle when I met my Wife 46 years ago.
She wishes it had the manual transmission. She wanted a mid engine C8 but didn't want to get on a waiting list. She traded in a 2000 'Vette on this one 2 years ago. (That's her Jeep in the background.)

Way to go Grams. We may be old but we aren't dead yet. ;)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

That's right.:metal:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

She doesn't, by chance, have an Electraglide and a bass boat too? ;)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

New tires on the new to me truck .

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

:lol: No but her little sister might. :lol:

Sold the XJ guy gave me the money this morning and is going to DMV should be gone by this evening

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

built me a little lightweight cart out of scrap stuff for Carlisle basically the framework from a retired bullet heater like the one sitting behind it in the pics. Worked out pretty good for an hours work. I took a 4 wheeled cart last year and it was a pain in the ass

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

That is a Great Idea. :metal:

I have some (Similar) stuff saved up.

I often have the thought of selling these in my Swap meet Booth. :lol:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Slightly overloaded my trailer log calculator figured 3400 + for each log . And of course there was a tree blocking the road home so I had chainsaws and the guy in front of me had a mini excavator. Had it off the road before the troopers showed up . I of course cut it up and threw it into the bed . Might as well go all the way

Arkansas Crappie fishing during the spawn is like nothing else. Fantastic fun, beautiful fish, great eating!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Bought this 72 VW. I had one just like it in 1980. Well mine was tan and in a lot better shape (until I smashed it up in 1982.(OOPS!)

It runs okay, meaning it runs although I'm not going to get too far on flat tires. New ones should be here tomorrow.

Not bad for $750

That's Cool the Love Bug. :metal:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

GoTenn, I've had crappie fishing on my mind this last week something fierce. It sure has been windy up here though. Those are beauties John.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Paul, another beetle? You've got a small herd going on. Do any of them run? I have peeked at some new and reman'd vw engines and man they are pricey.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Not on my truck , but on my daughters. Over the last week or so I torn down her seat from her '72 and repaired three broken springs, added burlap to the back of the foam, added 1/2 high density foam to the seating area and replaced the upholstery with pre sewn kit from LMC Truck . First time tackling this myself and I like the way it turned out.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

That looks great Mike.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Those were from Lake Greeson. I think the spawn there is just about over, but I've heard that you can still catch em casting shallow at Lake Ouachita.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Thanks Boog. She came out this afternoon and helped me get it in the truck. Then we took the truck to town and she probably spent over $15 washing it for the first time in over 6 years. She has had it parked in her garage waiting for the day she could start giving it some Love. I gave it to her for High School graduation 17 years ago.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Yeah another one. This one makes 6. And yes the motors are pricey now. I remember when you could buy one for 400 bucks. 5 out of the 6 run, and I've got a motor for it, I just have to put it in.

I need another Chevy truck now, I only have 5 of those.:lol:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Don't park them too close together or they will multiply. ;)
