Spit shined the Denali up today for Momma bear.
Still looks pretty good for 10 year old black paint

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
The ladies went on their traditional day after Thanksgiving shopping spree and the guys took off to for eats, a couple beers, darts and slidey board (Shuffle Board for those that are not in the know). A damned good day.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I got dragged into going shopping with my wife. We had to buy dog food and she can't lift a 35 pound bag (She can but she wants me to do it)
So. We stopped by an antique store. They had a cool Pennzoil 55 gallon drum sitting outside. I thought it would be a cool trash can for my garage. But the guy wanted $200 for it. I liked it but not that much. Who knows maybe it's worth that much. Just not to me. I'm not paying 200 bucks for a trash can.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I bet for less than $50 you can buy a barrel and paint logo it yourself and be much happier. Use a plastic drum and it will last much longer.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Sold the wheels I was going to put on a 1981 Malibu wagon I have. Getting ready to sell it, and I don't like having ugly wheels on any car.
I hate black on black wheels, and this was going on a Blue wagon............... |

Good news is that your can is now worth 200 bucks according to the guy selling or sitting on this one. I have no problem paying a little too much for something I really want. But when the price just becomes excessive I walk. I may be an idiot but I'm not a sucker.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Those 33s go for the big money. A 55 is a less desirable size. I can never find a 33 I am willing to pay the cost for. I'd pay $200 for a more obscure more vintage can but not such a common and recent one as that Pennzoil.
Our leaves held on longer this year. This is the weekend I put up Christmas lights but it doesn't seem right when I still have leaves to deal with. So I divided the day between some leave removal and starting the lights. Same thing today, but mainly hope to get some work done on the barn move project. This getting dark early thing is putting a hurtin' on getting anything done after work during the week. Outside work all my life means when the sun goes down the tools get put away and I shut down

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I tried to get my hardwood (laminate) floors to shine. I tried 2 different products that were supposed to bring out the shine. They did...For about 5 minutes. Then it was just like before.
Does anyone know of something to get these floors to shine. Otherwise I'm just ripping them out and replacing them. I was thinking Polyurethane but they aren't real wood so I don't know how that would work.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
My wife and I watched our Granddaughters Today while our Son in law and Daughter went to the Broncos - Chargers Game. I winterized the patio door and made a trip to town for bird seed and dog treats. Picked up some photo cards at Walgreens and parked next to someones '72 K5 . We bought lunch at Mickey D's and got home in time to see kick off .

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Installed a dash camera in my Denali. It was in my 2018 Sierra. Only took me 14 months to get around to hard wiring it in this truck.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I'd like to see this whole building move in time lapse. I suppose you will use a come along to slide that wall over when the time comes?

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Eye exam, no change from a year ago. Took truck dog to get his nails clipped. Washed the '70, the Tahoe, and Zero (the Mitsubishi). Wet and kinda cold, I sat out in the driveway and caught some rays.

![]() ![]() ![]() I have considered maybe come-alongs might do it with the pipe rollers helping. The question has been how to anchor the end I'll be pulling to. I was looking at the side I haven't touched the posts on yet and am thinking I can use those to anchor to. I could just cut them out up high making room to bolt the plates under the posts and leave the lower part to anchor to.

If the top surface is wood you should be able to use any finish made for wood. I could be wrong. I guess you could look into it on your computer to be sure
