What Did Ya Get Done This Weekend?

[Got Rust?]

Went to swap meet Sat. 1st one (auto) in probably 14 years. Golly they want big $ for some stuf. worked on cleaning out the barn, 60 Pont, 67 Cheby truck, & 77 Vette. got the Vettte fired up, and on the local C.L. has not had license tabs since 1999, Wonder how many will realize, this is an old "barn stored" Corvette)now to push some of this other stuff out the door. Would list with RRR, but do not want to make it sound like a used car lot. Anybody have any thoughts?

Cut and installed Granite counter tops in the kitchen. Talk about heavy and a lot of dust when cutting them. I kept the blade wet and I was surprised how good it cut them. Next is the glass tile back splash. I will be glad when its finished. I am learning as I go.

AAAhhhhhgggg, do not say tile, man.....my wife's wanting to redo some more floors. On a better note built a boom for the front of the tractor and did alot of riding in the 41 after installing new rear shocks, I still think I'm gonna put a sway bar on back.....the horrible roads around here it still has just a little body roll.

Walked away from the World of Wheels with 'Outstanding in Class' with a Lada Niva (Russian 4x4) that I built for a buddy.

[dark_horse]

Spent time with the wife and kids. We all went to a farm auction, ended up buying some china(you know, the fancy plates and such that are used to take up space in the cabinets that should be housing such things as beer mugs). But anyways, she was happy so I was happy. Trip was worth it when on the way home i found two model a pickups, an f100 and an ih s110 all in good shape sitting around an old barn. I left a note for the owner, hopefully he calls.

I removed all the redundant mounts off my frame after work on Saturday, today I went and bought some paint for my dilapidated fence....

 

[sgtpontiac]

Not a whole heck of a lot....

Did get a sunburn....no...really... playing with the grandaughter in the back yard and it was a record 81 degrees and sunny in Detroit.... ....it's back to the same old crap now.... low 40's tonight.... anyway...
did get a cab corner patched in before I had to take my Father in law back to the ER...... he's ok.... the cab corner came out great.... needs very little filler... must be getting better with the welder...[cl

Been wiring the Plymouth truck. I'm compulsive about neat wiring. What do you think?

 

[BruceR&C]

I think your a little too much a perfectionist on the wiring, bob. Looks Ok as is. I do like the valve mod, tho.
As for me, it's been the same thing as most weekends for the past few months. Working to sell house here in KY to move to AL in July.

 

[Got Rust?]

look's good to me, I think one of the red wire on the left of the pic goes to the speaker for the front of the motor, that way it'll sound good when you start it up, oh, and the heads are on upside down, still.

 

[jfg455]

Wow! Inverted, electronic desmo valves! you knocked this one out of the park Bob![cl

 

[donsrods]

Spent the weekend with a few hundred of our good friends at Billetproof in Gainesville, Fl. Weather was beautiful, people were the best around, and got to see a lot of very cool cars. Can't wait for the Billetproof Drags in October.
