Not me, when I was a kid, I was putting a transmission and a 54 Chevy and it fell on my chest and I was pinned. I couldn’t move at that time. I became claustrophobic and have been that way ever since..
Just work on Fords

Drove up to NE Phoenix (actually Mesa) to fly fish on the Salt River. Spent two nights in the pop-up tent. Only caught two fish. Saw a ton of horses on the river.

TRuCK and I channeled our inner subquark and soupie… did a little dump run and got rid of 200lbs of my sister and brother in laws trash for my mom (they live with her, but they’re not very proactive or practice contributing with help…just pay rent and hermit in their room playing video games after work..?.)

Earlier last week wifey, mom, and I cleaned out the garage and filled a U-Haul trailer with about 1,000# of nonsense which is also at the dumb now.

Not today but last Thursday, Ranger picked up some cedar from the Mill.

She’s a beauty. I like it. Any plans to slap some stain to make it pop?
Thanks,
Being honest with myself, I know I will not do the proper yearly maintenance, to keep it looking pretty. It will turn grey naturally.
Look at the barrel next to it, it was stained and coated with urethane. It was beautiful, but after a few years of neglect it is returning to its natural state. So I am going for function over fashion. At least that's what I tell myself. :wink:

May have been better off throwing the sister and b-i-l back there and dumping them off. :shock:

As much as I like the idea ?, they’re family and they do pay rent to mom which helps a tiny bit financially. So they’re tolerated to a degree.. although I did have to have a few words exchanged with my brother in law about how if he parks his civic in the garage again (that’s mamas spot.) I’ll come down there in the middle of the night and clean out the garage again ?. I was nice enough about it I told him it’s much easier for Dad get to the vehicle if need be which is why we did all the work to clear it out. However my original promise still stands?

I installed the PPE deep pan on my 23 with 9,000 miles. Went ahead and replaced the filter too. I have the #30 Fitzstick prototype and I’m so glad lol. It took right about 8.5 quarts to fill it and I added a 15 ounce bottle of Lubeguard Platinum. I also reset the adaptives, so I’ll give it some time to “relearn”. Note the lack of an auxiliary pump since it’s came with the factory without auto stop-start.

Did you discuss the possibility of a can of whoop ass being opened on him?
