Not me working on, but some city workers, working on.........a customer sent me this snow pile.

Lets start a pool to see who can guess the day it will finish melting.

On my way to work I pass a scrap metal mountain about that size.

As Tiny Elvis might say: "Thats huge!"

Lets start a pool to see who can guess the day it will finish melting.

At one of the airports i worked at they would do the same thing with the snow. Gather it from the whole airport and pile it up in one giant pile.
We did have a pool guessing when the pile would be gone. I never won. That pile would last into May.

Whoa ! , When I saw that BIG hill I thought , " Hes got to be kidding , surely its just a earthen mound covered in snow " . But , then again, I've never lived where more than a few inches materialize .

Not sure if it's still used as an airport. There are runways still. It's a small army base.

its finished and running and not leaking

Get some screw eyes at the hardware store, and put a bungie cord over each of those ladders. They need not be tight, just snug. You will never know how glad you are you did this.

The Taiwanese Camarillo job is coming along. I made it a roller and have tamed the factory monstrosity found in the left quarter's trunk jamb. Surgery there was quite invasive but limited to that panel. Core support showed up today so I started hanging fenders.

 

[Livin70]

Drivejunk , your going to make that into a Picaso when your done .

 

[drivejunk]

Thanks! But it is to be a car car, not a show car, and others will do the shiny stuff. So yep it will be like art but my contributions merely make what the next guys have to do possible. However the sky is the limit if a customer wants to buy a masterpiece. Our hero just wants to pay for a reasonable Camaro that isn't disintegrating. Again, my objective is to "do enough without doing too much".

Thanks for the vote of confidence though. Theres few fit issues that can't be solved if ya throw enough cut & butt at it.

Changing the bushings on the front sway bar. May end up changing out the sway bar to a UMI unit as this one is kinda odd shaped. PO put it on.

8 3/4 rearend is the first thing I noticed. The 4 spd cars had Dana 60s. Beautiful Hotrod either way

The Plymouth GTX came standard with the 727 Torqueflite & 440. The 4-speed was a no-charge alternate.

Just finished installing Global West rear coil over cross brace and mounting brackets with Viking coil over shocks. I already had UMI rear lower control arms and relocation brackets, and was concerned the lower coil over mount would not fit. With a little elongation of the lower hole in the bracket it will fit, and you just need to drill the upper hole per the instructions. Still more work to do.

Got the front end lined up decent on the Camarillo job but theres a fix or two to do on each fender. Mustang job got shot.

The guy who started the 47 truck job is back on it, getting the engine and new bed situated.
