I am with the other Larry. I just got done paying all my property taxes and every time I seem to forget about that small piece of land in Stone county, but the county sure doesn't forget!

72C20 - That Toyota a 4Runner? Sure looks like the fixed caliper setup on one if my memory serves me correct.

Tacoma pickup . Same platform

Went for a ride then picked up some wood . Had a nice lunch in Callicoon ny along the Delaware river

72c20customcamper · 10-16-2021, 08:37 AM

Trailer in action . I got three loads till the battery in the winch remote died

**Palf70Step** · 10-16-2021, 10:05 AM

Looked at the mess that keeps growing. One of these days I have to actually sort thru it and put all this stuff up in a semi organized fashion. I normally am much better, but all this stuff coming in with the 70, just have not had time to catch up yet.

Soon as we get things settled at my friends widow's place I'll get onto it.

GOPAPA · 10-16-2021, 10:32 AM

Well .. need some help? I would like to have them License plates ,, that Classic Louisiana Banner ,, them chrome beauty rims ,one of them squirrel cage fans and that green thing on top of the box fan ..that's all,,,, I don't want to be hoggish ..

I’m down in Phoenix doing Camaro stuff all weekend. The color or my car is called Aqua Blue Metallic and Gm only made about 3800 of them total and all in the first half of the 2010 model year. They just don’t come up very often. Last night I got together with some good friends who have 2 of more of them. Got some pictures of the three cars together in the dark. Today we are going to Phoenix International Raceway for 10 laps on track in the Camaros at Laps for Charity. After that, a BIG ole car show tonight and then a couple hour cruise tomorrow morning before heading home. I’ll post some more pictures up as the weekend unfolds. First a rare sighting: 3 ABM’s in one sitting!

I've been there before. I had rented a barn on a farm for years, then the place finally sold, 60 days to clear out. It all had to come back to my house and I needed to create space for it all

I managed to get everything put somewhere. That was some time ago. Now, I'm moving a building. So, everything had to be cleared out and put somewhere. It has an upstairs that was full of stuff, too. My screened picnic house is stuffed full of things, I have things in corners of my house, in the wood shed, garage, and I built a small pavilion directly next to this building to roll heavy stuff into. This building I built in '88 and was quite a conglomeration of things. It will be nice to be done and get everything back in place.

Getting ready to do a door latch on my nieces little Aveo. I should be safe because the box says it got the "jab"!

72c20customcamper · 10-17-2021, 04:28 PM

Went for pumpkins with the munchkin . Stopped to see the little munchkin on the way

Gotenntitans · 10-18-2021, 05:07 PM

School is out today for Fall Holiday. Weather great, so I went a little perch jerkin! Turned these two big boys loose to catch again another day. Kept 5 keepers for suppa!

South Arkansas Crappie fish!

KW5413 · 10-18-2021, 08:21 PM

A couple big ol' Crappie slabs. No better fish eating than that.

I saw those photos and was gonna ask why you were taking those in my shop. Man, things get out of sorts quickly don't they?

**Palf70Step** · 10-21-2021, 04:27 PM

The smallest and hopefully the last of 3 loads of crapped out electronics headed to the hazardous waste recycling . 8 foot beds can hold a lot more the Rice- a-roni.

The other 2 loads were above the tool box. I may have to go thru some of my stuff, someday

, so my kids won't have to go thru all this when I head on.

**allchevy58** · 10-21-2021, 11:07 PM

Been working on our fence on the new property and bought a new tool for the property. Installed a bed mat and some floor mats. Now going to build a rack for the bed.

**FleetsidePaul** · 10-22-2021, 02:31 AM

Nice new tool.

i spent most of the day on the phone with lawyers. Lot's of fun. Not!

Watched the Dodger game. Sorry Atlanta.

I got my new storage container delivered. Time to clear out the garage and see my pool table again. The drywall is almost done. The old garage should look cool again without a bunch of boxes in it.

I got stood up on the Cadillac I wanted. I had the money but the guy was missing in action. No calls back. So no Cadillac. Ticked me off.

So. Some good and some not so good. That's life.

Got most of the barn board off of my barn over the last weekend. My daughter came and helped me. Now maybe it will fall down...

First picture is the South side, second is the North side. I finished it up on Monday & Tuesday.

I didn't feel comfortable going any higher on the South side.

BRL · 10-23-2021, 02:18 AM

...not on my truck?

OK, how about my BUG.

Had the end of my rear drivers side emergency brake cable snap off and totally destroy the inside of the drum.

Drove it like that for a while, and then my master cylinder just popped and died, so no brakes.

Seeing as how the motor is in back, and I essentially have a gas tank sitting on my lap, figured I better just get to replacing the entire works.

Could be some fun there with one of your trucks with a chain hooked up to that corner post , then you can reach that south end top.

**special-K** · 10-23-2021, 08:22 AM

That is a lot of barn to come down! Wish I could come help

That bug will be a pleasure to drive WITH BRAKES

You still need your daughter to help ya take the rest of the boards off it after you pull it down.. that's a lot of wrecking bar/nail pullin ,lumber stacking yet to do..

That will be something watching it come down.. it reminds me of my sis and husband pulling over an old barn about your size barn with their old 59 Chevy pickup .. my sis took an old super 8 movie of being pulled down ,,took awhile to do so ..
