Looking good!!!

You funny. BTW - the guy with the VW bus was back today. He said it's a '59. Got a picture of the back of it for you.

I've had lousy luck with easy outs in the past, but today my luck changed.

This.

I didn't get a pic of the *** end. Will do that the next time I'm there. He did say that this was the first year that the bus didn't have a bulkhead that prevented you from walking from the front to the back.

I was at my shop this weekend and the guy across the parking lot always has some cool vintage VW projects. He said this was a 1957, if I recall correctly. He's just getting it back on the road and he'll drive it ugly. He has another 1950's van and one pickup from the 50's as well.

Need pics and details on the car that it's going in!

Gonna need to see some pics of that Satellite. The car that I most regret selling was my barn find 71 GTX, black on black, spoilers, air grabber, track pack 3.54 Dana, 4 speed, 440.

Had trouble with achieving full erection on my 5 ton OTC floor jack so I topped off all three jacks at the shop with hydraulic oil and bled them all. Took me about 15 minutes of work to achieve full erection on all three! I feel like I’m 18 again! Need to wrench on the dozer now but I think...

Not sure that I have anything that qualifies as a Mopar, but I am fond of a b-body. Had a black on black '71 GTX (440, 4bbl, 4 sp, spoilers, air grabber, Track Pack) and hemi RR (original 383 car with strong pump gas 426 hemi) years ago.

The pics are of my 20' x 50' shop. I have two 10' x 20' storage units across the parking lot (visible in one of the pics) for overflow storage. My '71 Javelin road race project is in one; I keep the dozer or the '72 Javelin in that one.

You can air down to 12 psi for the speed bumps, but if you want to step up your speed bump game, get some beadlocks so you can drop down to 3 psi...

They're not bad at all because it actually has loader pads on it with triple grousers. Once I change to single grouser dozer pads, I'll have to pay closer attention.

Repositioned the AMC 360 on my 40-year-old engine stand. The bolts on the head/bracket got loose and it got all wonky on me so I hooked it up to my cherry picker, lifted it up, and got everything back in place. Got my metal cabinet situation fixed. Several months ago, I bought a pair of...

Damn. Damn. Damn. Terribly sorry for your loss, Mac.

Yep, I cleaned the innards before I checked runout. It's a bigger DP, and not used for super precise work, so .004" is good enough for me.

Mixed bag today. Pulled the dozer out of storage, checked for leaks (still none), checked to see if it was still running rough at low rpm (it is), tried to free frozen track tensioner (no luck), figured out what filters I need, measured buttonhead grease fitting so I can order adapter. Also...

Fixed it for you...

In the garage today? Not a damn thing; work is sucking the life out of me. But I work for myself and I bill by the hour, so at least I'm putting more $ in the emergency bulldozer fund.

In the garage today? Chased my f*cking tail working on a 1967 John Deere 350 Straight dozer. I bought it about 2 weeks ago and it dies after running a few minuted and then it typically starts back up. These tractors are know for injection pump issues. The governor flex ring disintegrates and...
