Just a cheap Harbor Freight unit . But it works tried to buy my neighbors 20 ton OTC press . Real nice unit but 2k was a little high for my needs . It’s worth it as they are like 3k new

I got my KLR running. It has had carb problems for some time. I finally got a rebuild kit and took care of business. It's fun to ride again

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

Been working on the new 61 impala last couple weeks. Flushed and replaced all the fluids and filters. Found a A arm bushing has disappeared. The bolt had backed out at some point and fell out with the washer and then the rubber had worked its way out leaving the two metal pieces. So pulled that corner of the suspension apart and got new bushings pressed in. Did some diagnostic's on the motor. Found a few weak cylinders after a compression check, one head has worn guides as it sometimes puffs smoke on start up. So gave it a little tune up and then drove it out and cleaned out the carbon on some back roads and it is running better, but the winter project now will be pulling the 348 for a rebuild, but its ok for the last month or two of summer here.

Took it out to its first meet on Saturday for a local cars and coffee and then to a buddies birthday party/car show. Rides and driver super, will be really good next spring after going through the 348.

She sure is, that's one of my favorite designs. Same goes for the Nassau Blue C2 parked next to her.
