friday- got a set of prothane body mounts

saturday- went to a very very pathatic goodguys car show in pleasanton, it rained till about 9am and there was about a 50% empty swap lot and a lot of empty grass where cars should be. still managed to score good though,

me: $45, 140lbs mag base, flex arm dial indicator, yes!! no more "by feel" r&p setups

russel: $100 brand new errson roller rockers!!
$40 for a '63 inner fenders, cowl corners, and core support.

jason: $275 for a pair of 29x15.50x15" m/t sportsman dot drag tires on 15x14 dual pattern rims.
$15 671 blower front cover.

on the way home i stop by my favorite mud hole and jump started a kid enough to get him home, rescue #1

then the real fun started up, called some more buddies to see what they were up to and they wanted to go wheel a little and then hit the bar, hellsya! im in. leave my long truck at his house and we head out. 2hrs later were fully stuck and need to get a ride to get my truck, not a tug or offroad recovery just a ride to get my truck. call up a few people a every buddy is either out of town or not ansewering, except 1 buddy, he is to busy bowling and cant come get us, and i quote, "you guys should call some one else", even though we just put a roll cage, lift, tire, and a whole ass load of work on his 74 bronco[ford people]. found a ride, got my truck, got him out, went to the bar. loe and behold who is there, the bowling ford owner with an empty glass, waiting for a pitcher. got drunk and went home. rescue #2

sunday, was going to install body mounts, got a call, 4wheeling at 12noon, show up!. ok so i try to fix my rear winch incase of shtf and someone needs out. got it going, 2 buddies show up to my house and we roll out. get up there the mud is very clingy and great, 2 other vehicles and its on! play around for 2hrs and get ready togo and once again the ford guy rolls in , late, so we headed out assuming they wernt staying. .5hr later my cell rang and i randomly ignored it, didnt really care i was trying to get my body mounts done, 2 ignored calls later i find out that ford guy is now stuck in the exact same way we were on saturday night, he not more than 18 hrs told us to piss off, we introduce him to our freind karma, she's kind of a *****.

im still a sucker and went to go get him. his brakes went weak and lost control going down a hill and gently plowed some bushes, he and the ford are fine. pull him out and chained up to be his brakes and got him down the hill.
rescue #3

maybe tommorrow i can get my mounts on?
