what did you raid the piggy bank for this week?
this board allways seems to have a what did you get done this weekend thread but for some including me, sometimes you spend your weekend finding and ordering parts. being that that's just what i did this weekend i'm curious to know what you raided the piggy bank for this weekend?
for me, i ordered several carb linkage parts since those $400 carbs don't come with any linkage brackets, an exhaust system, and a cab rubber kit. All in all it set me back about $350 but i should be able to drive my gmc late next week. "it's only taken me 6 months". =) ondrew |

Re: what did you raid the piggy bank for this week?
Bought a remote mount solenoid from Summit to cure my "hot start" problems on my 71. The other stuff I bought for my 59: Rear license plate bracket and tailgate trunions...How exciting!
 Had to get something for my birthday!

Re: what did you raid the piggy bank for this week?
I broke the piggy bank. $15,000 going to soon-to-be ex-wife on Wednesday (divorce finalized) and $300 for four dozen roses for my new girl. I should be able to recover my $15,000 loss over the next six months. It will take an eternity to replace the new girl, she is something else. Later, Mark

Re: what did you raid the piggy bank for this week?
I spent $80 on gas to get to the project
about $30 on whoppers during the trips there and back guessing around $30 in shop supplies for the first time in a long time I spent exactly $0 on parts. I spent the entire weekend hacking,slashing,gobbing and grinding (might have been some swearing in there too).
