Get back to work Dennis.

Strodder · 06-16-2011, 10:18 PM

It's Rum & Cherry Coke right now. Worked 7 hours today. I deserve it.

daverod · 06-16-2011, 11:18 PM

7 hours damn that would kill me.

Strodder · 06-16-2011, 11:42 PM

Me too, it did. I usually work 5 or 6 hours a day. That's what semi retired means, except when I work around the house or my truck.

bubba327 · 06-16-2011, 11:50 PM

All hail to the Sofa King

Strodder · 06-24-2011, 12:24 PM

I'd like to see some pictures of your floor.

ruffrida2005 · 06-24-2011, 10:30 PM

So since today is Friday. What have you done to the truck today?

Strodder · 06-24-2011, 10:36 PM

Yeah, but didn't take any pictures. I did a little bondo work, and organised to start going more work. Like finish the roof and the other door handle. I had so much crap inside the cab, I couldn't work on it. I found some stuff I was looking for.

bubba327 · 06-25-2011, 12:30 AM

Dennis, I don't think you worked on your truck today.. You have been hanging out over in Daverods thread with the girls! I have seen the pictures!

PS I liked the tall blonde!!!

Strodder · 06-25-2011, 09:33 AM

Yeah she was a FOX. They all are, some better than others.

bubba327 · 06-25-2011, 10:41 AM

Image all the women who would come running IF you were driving your truck!!!

bubba327 · 07-02-2011, 09:26 AM

Another Friday came and went.... What did you get done on the truck ???

Strodder · 07-02-2011, 09:38 AM

I'm, fixing a bad oil leak on the Vette today, then I'm on the trucks roof to finish the the drip rail flair. See I have the cab out where I can work on it.

iehotrod · 07-19-2011, 02:14 AM

Nice work you have been at this truck for awhile! I start on mine next month!

daverod · 07-19-2011, 01:42 PM

give us somthing.

I know you haven't been doing anything on your truck so I guess your latest project will be good enough.

Strodder · 07-19-2011, 03:20 PM

I entered another bike show in Long Beach. I took a 3rd place in my class.

Look at these pictures. It will keep you busy for awhile.

wow the heck my girlfriend said she was going to her mothers house.......J/k nice pic

daverod · 07-19-2011, 08:26 PM

So how much did you win.

or did they just give you a doll. I'm saving up for a Road king. Somthing around a 89 09 91. My buddy bought one for 8.

Strodder · 07-19-2011, 08:44 PM

The promoter was a big Fu*ken liar He said there was going to be a Metric Cruiser Class, and up to 3rd place $50 certificate from the Vendors, and it was supposed to be a 2 day event. NOT!!! It was a one day event, no prize, and no Metric Class. I was lucky I got a 3rd. This is the cheap Pewter mug I got along with a Fast Dates Calendar. WOOPEE!!

I spent $192.00 for 3 nights at the RV Park in Long Beach, $50 to enter, plus food for lunch there. All under false pretences!! This show is supposed to be the biggest bike show in So Cal, and it was the 20th anniversary. It was only a 1/4 of the size it has been in past years, and everyone complained. I doubt there will be a 21st show.
Thanks for letting me vent.

BTW the trophy on the right is a first place from a professionally judged Bike Show.

Strodder · 07-19-2011, 08:57 PM

Anyway this is what's going on in the shop. As you can see I'm really busy. I'm collecting money and have to show some results.

Replace Carb, tune, replace rocker panel molding, and make tubular strut mounts.

Lots of stuff to do to this 57 Ranchero. I need to make it look and run good to sell. Lots of small stuff, like detail engine, ign wired, repair rot on tail gate, and lots more.

Strodder · 07-19-2011, 09:00 PM

I had to stuff all my stuff in the front garage, and one of the Seca's outside.
