Re: The 283 Rebuild Begins
The answer to that question is the same as me asking if you got rid of that nauseating avatar yet.

My drama on Saturday morning started about 2.5 hours later than I committed to, due to some family logistics issues, and because my truck was behind a huge camper trailer and my boat, I didn’t get the truck flat-bedded up to the muffler guy until 10:30. Needless to say - he was mad a wet hen and his parking lot was full of other customer’s vehicles when we finally arrived. $50 tip to the AAA driver and he was gone. The remaining lift was a high type - about 12" off the floor with long steel ramps and because my truck has no brakes yet and the TH350’s linkage isn’t hooked up yet - we couldn’t just shove it up on the rack without having it go off the opposite end. The "tug" this guy uses was locked up in the transmission shop - in the back - that’s why my guy was ticked. OH, THE DRAMA! ![]() Fortunately, the transmission shop guy just happened to come back a few minutes later, and with my best B/S line, I was able to convince him to open up his slide door and bring out the tug. Two minutes later my truck was up on rack. Tried to tip him too - but he just looked at me like I said something about his mother. So, at about 15:00 my time - I’m going to go see what my muffler guy did to my truck. And once this is done I’ll need to start thinking of some new excuses to keep from lighting this old rig off.

Re: The 283 Rebuild Begins
Yeah - and the comment about me video taping it? What the Hell? I'm still using Wal-Mart throw-away film cameras with 7 day processing! It'll be another decade before I get a video camera!
