    I went and picked up a steel F150 driveshaft to get the truck back on the move. So far so good. The brakes are spongy so in need to figure that out. I need to get back on my diy turbo install on Foxbody. I want to fix all the little things clean it up and enjoy it but there are a lot of little things. If anyone wants a project I might let it go it's very distracting, running, sitting there saying work on me while the mustang is in jackstand jail.

    oh shit - that's a high dollar shaft last time I looked ... aluminum, and I bet they don't sell them any more. Might be worth taking to a driveshaft shop.

    The lighting is Running! I pressure washed it to get the top layer of crud off. It got dark on me so I will finish washing it another day. I started making a list of all the things that need fixing. Hopefully the junkyard is open tomorrow and I can grab a few of them.

    The text was about the truck in general. I swept the bed of the truck, and started cleaning the cab.
    Ok , I thought it might be but I thought you hadn’t started opening it up. I’ve never seen anything quite like it before.

    I have to decide what I am going to do with the lighting before it gets a thread. I figure I can just mix it in here. Not alot yet. Next week I hope to get the heads cleaned up and the intake back on. I need to get a new PCV and the rubber grommet that it goes I guess it needs one of those metal screens?

    Ah.. I see. I was trying to say nobody will notice except you. I wouldn't have known. Turbos tend to end up where they fit....
