Re: Daverods project 66

So easy even a cavemam could do it. After a month still no parts from Brothers. I'm removing them from my favorites. Somthing about lost,tracking,china. Now I need a chrome front bumper. When does it end.

Re: Daverods project 66

I have been up playing in the snow and took these for you Dave , Winter is coming !! Get your sled running.
I left the Elk up there, and we saw more wolves than bulls.

Getting caught back up on your build - It is looking good!!
Too bad about Brothers losing your stuff, They have always shipped mine as promised although I have been a little disappointed in some of the reproduction quality, and tolerances.
I guess metric is the standard in China

I fired them up today. I've held off from buying a new sled one more year. It's harder every year. Just more money I can put in my truck. Washed about an 1/2 inch of dust off. Nice of you to leave the elk in the mountains we'll get them next year. Walked about 2 feet from, a wolf last year and did'nt even see it till it jumped up and took off.

I noticed it was the one thing your garage did'nt have so I had to have it. Think I'll stay in this house for awhile so I better make it more like mine. Still looking for a nice poster like yours for the door.

It's not really mine. I'm just renting it from the bank. It does have a thumping sound system.

Re: Daverods project 66

You should count your lucky stars that Brothers didn't send you a bumper. They are thin asian made crap!
Find an old painted bumper and send it out to have it chromed..
WAY better quality

the air engine thing would be best the electric pump tend to draw a lot of current and there noizy (better mount them near the rear of the truck )

there some airco units that can be eazily converted lo the airpumps forgot the exact type and brand just remembered that they where mounted in some of the older volvo's , i had a website about the subject somewhere but i lost it in the wood of weblinks i got on this laptop

Now you just need to put a egg crate on the frame so you can drive it around.

No Bubba I kinda like the bomb thing. Besides I just bought a new rubber neck thing for it. Last time I was messing withb the tank I needed to take it out you have to kinda tip it down to get it out. Anyway gas came out the fill hole and went averywhere. It was then I saw the wires going to the gas sender were caught on somthing and where shorting like crazy. I really can't believe I'm still here.
