No chicks at my house or Posters ... I have daughters and friends of daughters that help out in my shop.

My father in law had posters hanging in his shop years ago ..
When my girls were young, My wife cut out the all XXX parts and left the rest of the poster hanging .. He did take them down after awhile....

We just barely get anything done anyway..,
We have a Northwest Motorfest car show next weekend.. so we wont get anything done then either..

Logan car show was great. Very nice location. Lots of shade. If you have never been there put it on your list. Not to many pics.

Did find some good house art at a garage sale.

daverod · 07-03-2011, 11:25 AM

Painted my bed sides and some other stuff.

Ran the **** out of the grill support.

Did 'nt put enough hardner in the mud on the tailgate so it has to sit in the sun for a few. Still need to paint the front of the box then I get to put it together.

Strodder · 07-03-2011, 11:28 AM

Is that a night stand? I like it.

Knowing you it will end up being a tool box.

watahyahknow · 07-03-2011, 03:37 PM

might get a nice piece of birdseye or that other swirly stuff glued on there and paint and polish and paint the edge with a little black line to hide it either that or flatten the wood thats on there and fill it up with lacker

daverod · 07-03-2011, 10:30 PM

I was thinking a flywheel or a piece of granite.

I'm not sure how thick you can make laquear brfore it starts to crack. I've seen some cool tops with stuff inside the laquear. Saw one with hand carved fish in it the laquear was abour 5 inches thick.

watahyahknow · 07-04-2011, 03:51 PM

could be they just layed on metal to fill the raingutter in the front and ground of the rest , makes the roof look a bit like an english flat cap

No they don't do it that way. They just fill the hole. That cap looks like the way I'm doing my roof.

This ones for you Dave, We finally got together at the MotorFest after Dave and his wife made the 5 hour trip to the south western side of Idaho.
Lots of cars and trucks in the show and way too many to look at them all.
We watched the downtown evening cruise from the marble steps of the Idaho capitol building.
And thanks again for not kicking me............

Attachment 771926 Dave is wondering about adding Wheel hopping options on his 52

I would love that, and a good place and time to meet.

I can make a airbagged truck hop. My son even made his 55 Caddy hop. It blew peoples minds. The cops didn't like it though.

daverod · 07-10-2011, 03:58 PM

Home again. It was good to meet everyone. Had a great time.

Bubba turned out to be to nice to kick in the nuts.

That low rider had springs over the rods so I guess it had some suspension.I was thinking the same thing.

Strodder · 07-10-2011, 04:05 PM

All you need are 1/2" valves, and lines, plus strong bags and lots of pressure. Big tanks will help too for more hops. And lots of $$$$

daverod · 07-10-2011, 04:28 PM

I made it hopp once already. I usally plug it into my shop aircompressor then open the valve slowly. One time the valve was aready open and I just snapped the airhose on the end, Scared the hell out of me.

watahyahknow · 07-10-2011, 12:24 PM

i drove behind a lowrider on a bumpy road , when they have the real deal hydraulics there basicly without any suspension unless they have some hydraulastic canisters (a canister with a membrane in the middle one end filled with hydraulic oil and connected to the hydraulic cylinder the other end filled with a compressable gas , look at the older citroën's they have them from the factory) mounted somewhere in the lines , and ride rockhard

watahyahknow · 07-10-2011, 09:08 PM

i heared of a story once about someone , slickly drunk and needled by his friends opened up the restrictor fully of his full size co2 bottle to see how high his truck would jump.
now wide open thats 860 psi and it jumped allright , busting all 4 airbags in the process , i wouldnt be suprized if it split open all the airlines lengthwize too

Strodder · 07-10-2011, 09:54 PM

I installed air bags in a Ford Ranger, and the guy was hopping it at a cruise night. He popped the bag right next to me, and it stung my leg. I was only 5 feet away. It was firestone bags. Conitechs are stronger. But Slam Specialties are the strongest.

daverod · 07-19-2011, 08:28 PM

Started to water the money tree. It's starting to show some life. Got another gal. of paint and some more feather fill.

Strodder · 07-19-2011, 09:11 PM

IT sucks when money gets tight.
