What I got done this long weekend
Saved on the gas money by not going anywhere and did some finishing touches on the engine and coated the bed with Eastwood's Rust Encapsulator.......

Looks good. It's been a good weekend to stay home. Unfortunately I did not. Had to attend a wedding (not mine).

I found something by chance while driving north for work on a saturday morning. It was sitting in the driveway of a guy who was setting up for a garage sale. I looked it over, then bought a hammer drill and thought about it for the next 5 hours or so. I called the wife, for a second opinion, she said if I thought it was worth it, go for it. (She has her moments) So I stopped on the way home and I'm the proud owner of a mini bike of unknown pedigree. If anyone knows who made this thing, please contact me. Anyway, I've wanted one since I was a kid, my 9 year old son thinks I'm cool for a day or so, my 13 year old girl could care less, though she did have a rather large grin after riding it a bit (she almost hit a telephone pole). Anyway, I like it.

I'm thinking on doing the wells. The rest of the bed doesn't have any surface rust on it like the floor did. I plan on putting some kind of do-it-yourself bed liner in it after painting the truck.....not planning on a show piece here, just a looker and driver.

My weekend went long, last week end and this one. So I'll pack it into one, last weekend bought trailer( non stop driving to pick up ) and installed soft hinged cover, this weekend said bye bye to heater, and removed about 100lbs. of excess stereo equipment. I'll also throw in a pic of my bike that the consultant I work with bought me to say thanks for making his life easy.

Hey 71Dragtruck did you make those heater covers or buy them? I pulled my heater over the weekend too and figured I would make exactly what you have but if I can just buy it that would be easier.

I cut a huge tree down before it fell on my livingroom,and packed away 3 rick of firewood for winter.
Would much rather have worked on my truck though
