After finally finishing my 17-year old fishing boat re-flooring project, got back at the 'Cuda for the first time since I got it back from being painted.  Put the carb and throttle linkage bracket back on, measured what length throttle cable I needed, posted a question re it on E-bodies, did an oil change, took out the new electronic distributor and adjusted the air gap; replaced said dist. Replaced the valley pan hold down clamps with billet ones and added the new ECU bracket to the rear VP hold down bracket.  Much cleaner than having it on the firewall.

Argh: Moving, small garage again, scheming how to make as much room as I can.

grabbing some parts and the damn heater core in my Dakota decided it was a good day to blow out   :steamingmad:  hot steam everywhere (good thing I was stopped when it blew) and 1.5 gallons of radiator fluid sitting in the carpet now :(  lucky I was close enough to harbor freight to grab a line clamp set, pinched off the heater lines and added enough fluid to get me home 


:thumbdown: to today

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Father and son time today with my oldest. We changed the exhaust ( muffler and tail pipe) in his Jeep
:wrenching:  Very easy job really. Nice to see HIS hands dirty for a change! :bradsthumb:

Cool Brad!

We took the Challenger out for nice drive.  Did a little walk on a late 60's mustang that was too curious as to what we had ....  :burnout:

Drove 170 miles to have a 1 hour breakfast with my mother- you guys DID remember that it's Mothers Day, right?- then finished tearing out the old fence, tore apart and renewed the BBQ and finished by BBQing the strip loins which we enjoyed with the boys. NEEDED that first beer!  :cheers:

Just thought I'd pass this along. I service small engine equipment for a living. I'm finding more than usual, mice nests even in push mowers from over the winter. Maybe give your equipment a quick look over. They like to chew wiring....

Another one yesterday.....

Okay, here are some pictures of the boat.  Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of fresh water fish as they are on my older computer.  Will this do?  247 lb yellow fin tuna caught on a Long Range Fishing Trip out of San Diego last Nov.

And to answer the topic at hand, since it snowed 6 inches last night, I took the day off of doing yard work and working on the 'Cuda to doing some inside the house projects like continuing to weave a Eagles head against an American Flag on a Salt water Tuna rod I'm building and installed a Scalia Rider PackTalk on my M/C helmet and watched several You Tube videos on how to program it in preparation for this Sat's club ride, and promptly fell asleep in front of the computer.  :rubeyes:
