Well I sold my motor and tranny, so I had to pull em out. Then I stripped the body parts off of a spare car, and put the passenger side back on our race car.

I built a workbench, and storage shelves across the back wall of my Garage. I'll post pics soon!! The workbench is 48" long, 24" deep, and 68" tall, with pegboard on the back. The shelves are spanning a 8 1/2' length and are broken into 2- 36" sections and 1- 27" wide section (for my toolbox). They are all 100" high and 24" deep with adjustable shelves. Finally I can organize the garage!!

Changed oil in the truck and my wife's car mid- week knowing that the weather was going to be bad all weekend. Spent all day Saturday at Mississippi Lions' All-State Band audition. My son made the band again. Second chair percussion. Yes, I'm proud of him.

Congrats George. My weekend was spent at work. Monday I went and towed a free 68 short step home. Hopefully the weather will let me strip it this weekend.

Not much on my truck, just fab'd an exhaust hanger bracket. I haven't been able to find any like mine in the junk yd.??? Plan to run dual ex. and want both sides symmetrical. They must have been limited to a small production. Wish I had a dig. cam. so I could post pics.

I spent mine helping a bud drag home his latest project, a Chevy 1-ton 4x4 frame/drivetrain & cab. We loaded it up on the trailer behind my Cherokee and started hauling it (with a couple of stops along the way to adjust the tongue weight) and all was going well until we hit a steep grade. The Jeep shifted down from 3rd to 1st (man, those 4.56 gears snatch hard!) and while it pulled on up the grade, it started whining shortly afterward. The whining turned into growling and we began to wonder if we'd make it back! By the time we got the truck unloaded, brought the trailer home & parked the Jeep it was growling very loudly and the diff was too hot to touch! Just what I need, another project to deal with!!!
