Just dropped some in my thread actually. Headed out soon to measure one up and notch it.
My only 2 doors have no back seat. Problem solved.
Replaced the mount for my Ultragauge, it had cracked at some point in the 14 years I've had it
I only needed the end, so out came the hacksaw
Is that your range hood duct in the attic venting thru the roof?Got the shelves in the cabinets finished and installed.
The mid-left one doesn’t get a shelf. The recycling bin goes in that one.
Started working on installing the doors. Found that they are slightly too wide to fit the holes in the face. So I set up the router table again and trimmed 1/8” off. Have to touch up the paint, but it’s on the inside (partial inset) and won’t really show much.
I meet a friend for lunch on Fridays. Got to the restaurant, and SWMBO called to tell me that the ceiling in the kitchen has a water spot.
I just repainted this ceiling last year, after a water spot. That leak was fixed. This is a new leak.
Spent some fun time in the attic. It’s only about 3’ high, and a joy to navigate. Marked the wet spots with a quick shot of red paint.
Guessing that it’s the flashing around the roof vent. Got a pan under the drip. It’s a small drip.
Need to do something about that vent ”support” too, one of these days.
Ya, it’s got a hemiCleaned the rear suspension and then the engine compartment. Received the heads back from the machine shop where all exhaust valves/guides were replaced. Intake valves/guides were good and did not need to replace these. 5 valves per cylinder….. All jewel like!
Thanks for taking a look.
We almost always had the back seat in my wife's old 99 Explorer Sport down to make a large cargo area, especially when we had a dog.
They're actually still around!My 14 year old Ultragauge also suffers from a crumbling mount. Where did you source the new holder?
(Car is in storage, or I would have a better pic)
Buddy rides nicely in the back of the vette.
Man I got to get with the program, I didn't even know usb in outlets was a thing. Still using my blackberry.
I have a growing number of USB devices, and with a USB charging point/power source, and the way better batteries available, you can do so much besides a phone:
Haven't heard that in a while.
There are times when I get tired of the 3-pedal purists whining about automatics even daring to exist and would like to challenge them to drive a 4 inch deck screw sideways through their left knee and leave it there for a few years while still driving manuals and beating their chests while dragging out more "millennial" memes from decades ago.
Good tenants are a pearl of great price.
My hip, knee, n ankle moved me from stick to auto. I bought the Burg to relieve carpal tunnel. For me, clutches are no longer a joy. I'll miss em, but the joy of still being able to drive beats out that little tweak of being in full control.
Full disclosure: I could still enjoy a full day in a Miata if I had one, but jockeying half a dozen semi-tractors around repeatedly a few times while the boss spent all day figuring out how he wanted the parking lots arranged really took all the fun out of clutches the last year before I retired. Can't float gears under those circumstances. And doing all that painful clutch work didn't make my **** even one foot longer.
I agree, having a skill doesn't mean that you should sneer at those who don't have that particular skill.
Not skill. As I said, drive that screw through your knee and get back to me about how much fun heel&toe is.
That was my dad. He's been dead since about 1993. Things have changed since then. There are folks right here today that insist that the only true way is something like a four speed rock crusher and a leaky Holley. Gets old after a few decades.
I'm a boomer. My 8 speed automatic Escape is a far cry from my Powerglide Chevies. It's quicker, smoother, more economical, more comfortable, and tows as much. No complaints.
