is it running yet?!?!?!?!

If it's not fired off by the end of the day I'm not sure I believe this project even exists. Think about it. We haven't seen pictures since I don't know when--get on him Joe. I almost need a video of it running to verify that it's real.

Oh Man - that caused a brand new cup of coffee to be spewed as I read it.

It's got to be one of the funniest paragraphs in this thread!

And what makes it so hilarious is that I've got zero come-back: nothing!

But understand - my Dad always taught me never to hit first, but to ALWAYS hit back.

Mac.

(thanks for the laugh so early in the morning)

The answer to that question is the same as me asking if you got rid of that nauseating avatar yet.

It’s all good, Ron. And all in fun.

My drama on Saturday morning started about 2.5 hours later than I committed to, due to some family logistics issues, and because my truck was behind a huge camper trailer and my boat, I didn’t get the truck flat-bedded up to the muffler guy until 10:30. Needless to say - he was mad a wet hen and his parking lot was full of other customer’s vehicles when we finally arrived.

$50 tip to the AAA driver and he was gone. The remaining lift was a high type - about 12" off the floor with long steel ramps and because my truck has no brakes yet and the TH350’s linkage isn’t hooked up yet - we couldn’t just shove it up on the rack without having it go off the opposite end.

The "tug" this guy uses was locked up in the transmission shop - in the back - that’s why my guy was ticked.

OH, THE DRAMA!

Fortunately, the transmission shop guy just happened to come back a few minutes later, and with my best B/S line, I was able to convince him to open up his slide door and bring out the tug. Two minutes later my truck was up on rack. Tried to tip him too - but he just looked at me like I said something about his mother.

So, at about 15:00 my time - I’m going to go see what my muffler guy did to my truck. And once this is done I’ll need to start thinking of some new excuses to keep from lighting this old rig off.

Mac.

love the little pics...so funny!!

too bad about the pipes

MacAttack · 06-03-2009, 10:17 AM

After work - went to the Pipe Dude's place, because he hadn't called - to see if he'd actually got anything done on the exhaust system. (Again, he's using my mufflers and resonators.)

When I got there the C10 was actually up in the air and everything tacked into place. I'd given him the option of going 90 degrees out from the frame, just in front of the rear wheels - or at an angle, and he went with the latter.

Unfortunately, his wire feed died on his welder and that unit was torn apart, spread all over the floor.

OH, THE HUMANITY!
