      I am.....Earl's new tranny is in the garage, car show tomorrow, so I'm planning on 'gutting' him on Sunday. Pondering where I'm gonna get some offset dowel pins in case the bellhousing runout is out of tolerance...... ???

            Thanks Phil, the truck ended up not quite as nice as the seller had "implied" (go figure). The truck was mostly there, but what he described as "just a little rust in the pass cab corner", turned out to be basically a parts truck in my opinion. Told him I wouldn't pay what he was asking and he said he wouldn't take what I was offering, so I am still looking

                    One good thing about those trucks is parts are plentiful, either in the junkyard or catalog houses.

                                Another day of pondering

                                How does going yachting help you decide if you need to repack your front wheel bearings?

                                How much ICE CREAM did Mike have to buy Donna to get her to ask if they would have t-shirts in his size (LXT)?

                                Is Arrowhead attempting to get his PD car to final weight with base coat?

                                If I stop working on my car will I stop finding things to fix?
