I'm awake. Sorry, I'm on the other side of the world. Get some sleep and get back to the truck later in the day.

Re: 3 O'clock in the morning

It's probably the high altitude. Pepsi is made for Low Altitude consumption only. Otherwise the fizz gets into the bloodstream and activated the motor-neurons, which in turn permanently turns you into a motor head.

No, you're not nuts for working on a Chevy truck that late, only for being up again at 8AM and posting the question.

Re: 3 O'clock in the morning

Last weekend I was pulling the cab off my '72 chev at 2am and the weekend before that I spent a friday night till 1am tearing everything off the cab. Weekend nights are always the only times I seam to have time to work on my truck but unfortunately I just rented out my basement suite so now I have to be considerate of my tenant.

Re: 3 O'clock in the morning

Late nights keep you cool and are the best time to work. I pulled two 4 am nights last weekend with my wiring, followed by a 2am and work at 6 monday morning.

Keeps the neighbors from seeing me benchpress a starter under a lowered truck.
