Oh...my daughter's tiny house is done -- mostly. We ran out of summer before the deck was built. Probably get that done in the next couple months.

We did about 1600 miles in under a week. My dad did ton of work to his '37 pickup. Brakes are done, it's completely rewired, and it has an era-correct SBC swap. Dash has been restored, including '40 wheel and full upholstery. Also, I recently fell victim to a 12V impulse buy. The paint...

Aaannnddd...another year has passed. Supervibe made it to 406,000 and fell victim to a 4-car pile-up. Got replaced by a 4cyl AWD Venza. I did my annual BDR ride with my brother and buddies. We rode the IDBDR from Nevada to Canada. It was pretty incredible.

It feels kind of a lame recap for 2022 but it's all I've really got. Work has finally gotten back to 2019 case load so I'm on the road a lot. I put 50,000 miles on Supervibe last year. It's currently got 351,000 on the clock and I'd like to run it to 400k. I've got one eye out for it's...

I've been around '35-37 fords all my life and never seen one this straight. It's unbelievable! He's got a good path planned for this one. I've been working on the general vision for The New Compound. Lots of ditch work and fencing, as well as tree work. I picked up this rad '70s RotoHoe...

I did my 225 build and rode a couple thousand miles. Did a trip through Central Oregon with my brother and a couple buddies. My dad finished and sold the '37 pickup. My daughter got a hankerin' for a tiny house. Still in process... I built another 225 for my 2nd loaner bike. Around this...

Looks like it's been over a year. Here's some catch-up. Sent my '35 cab home with my brother for body and paint. Meanwhile, I collect more parts... My dad picked up a '36 sedan, played with it for a couple months, then sent it to a new home in Colorado. shortly after that, he picked up a '37...

Thanks, man. It's still not done but I'm chipping away at it.

Catch-up post. The shop is mostly done and I'm mostly moved in. [url=https://postimg.cc/XpQy4S57] The biggest hang-up was getting an electrician to show up. I finally ended up just doing it myself. The 510 sold shortly after my last post. It lives in Utah now. My dad bought a beater...

I tried this experiment because a $10 quart of paint and a $10 HF gun was cheaper than rattle cans. It actually turned out decent. The 2x6 side rails are done. Just letting the WaterSeal on all the wood dry overnight then it's done.

I installed the hoist a few weeks ago but still don't have electricity yet. The wagon is finished now and for sale. Seems to be plenty of interest from tire kickers but nobody has any money. Finally getting around to re-decking my little 5x8 tilt trailer. Seems to be suffering a bad...

Thanks for wading through all of it. They have done a main street show in Pendleton for years but it's changed names and sponsorship several times. Some is near the Snake and some near Owyhee Reservoir.

Thanks guys. Lots of things are in a holding pattern right now. I bought a lift for the shop but haven't finished the install yet so no new photos. I was actually working on it this morning. I had planned to put it up for sale about a month ago but the new carpet kit I'd ordered got delayed...

Shop passed final inspection last week. Still can't get an electrician to get off the couch and come out to wire the place. Spent several hours Saturday moving dirt for the driveway.

I've driven the 510 a little since I moved it to my house. I've been trying to get the maintenance and improvements don on the TW twins. White one got new Clarke tank, high mount fender, chain, bark busters, and fork service. Blue one got the same plus sprockets and a new clutch. I...
