Re: Project Ru5tyNut5

well, I have the spindles in my garage which are 2.5", that should be close to setting my crossmember on the ground. After that I'll have to Z the frame to get it to sit level.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5

She saw her first show action today, I put her in the "Best truck" class although I knew of course that I had no chance. There wasn't really a "Piece of ****" class so I was screwed from the beginning. Had some rain this morning but nothing too bad

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5

it's raining pretty good tonight so she had to stay in the stable, figured I might as well paint something so I'm looking for parts easily paintable.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5

yea, every saturday night is an informal "gathering" of cars at the Krispy Kreme just south of Johnson Creek Blvd or whatever it is on 82nd. I haven't gone to one yet so not sure how many people show up. I think it's organized by a car club but more than just the club go, but I don't know from experience.

Re: Project Ru5tyNut5

no $$, no prizes, no trophies or dash plaques, just cars and the wierdos that drive them. the flyer thing says get there around 5 for the best parking but there's plenty of parking available. I'm undecided on that one for this weekend at this point, have to see how wet it is and whether I feel like it or not.
