I'm a little cloudy today, point the tip (?) under the steering column?
Does that mean the tip of the rod with the bait catcher about where your knees would go (under the steering column)? Are we trying to catch the guys legs when he gets in the truck?

That's a big 10-4, Mick. I can only guess that it worked.

Now that it cleared up, lets go surf.

I might even leave the window down a little, this could be fun.

Re: Truck got broken into!!!!!

Now, now - lets not get into that premeditated stuff.

The kids accidentally leaving their fishing pole in the truck is one thing - but that’s another.

BTW - I used a couple of those little tiny rubber bands to hold the two feet of line holding the hooks to secure it right up against the cheapo fishing rod.

Once you get a "strike" it looks like they come right off - and the sinker on the other end must make it really interesting.

After numerous intrusions into the cab of my truck - it was the simplest fix I could come up with, as I had no garage space - because of the Chevelle.

Especially when you want to remove it and just put it in the bed when you go to work.

I hope your Dad needed an operation! (kidding) What, are you nuts?

On ‘The Blue’, she’s not bad - needs about another $15k to make her right, interior, body and paint wise. The powertrain is plenty strong now and the B&M built tranny sends the juice right back to the rear tires.

I just have to ‘crab’ over speed bumps and such because of the cast pan.

This car humps hard between 25 and 75 and I love messing with the rice burners that come up and rap me off. Need to do something serious about the brakes though - they work - the first time you mash them, but are "questionable" after that.
