| work work work, one day I should just do nothing and try to not go nuts from it.......or not, im off to pull an engine, stuff an engine, and rearrange crap. fun fun, make the fun stop. lol. | | |
| Is it bad that when trying to remember your username and password you find that you have another Xanga site that you posted on twice and forgot about? maybe thats just me. anyway......Im busy as always knocking holes in walls and leaving them there until I get motivated to finish the job. today the dinning room walls are going out and new electrical and plumbing are going in before I try to remember how to sheetrock. yay for work......er....maybe not. | | |
| Holy shit I still have this page dont I? Been gone awhile, works crazy and the house is keeping me busy. I havent posted since I broke my leg, its all healed up and feeling better than I figured it ever would again. Im just glad I can walk, you really learn how great it is just to be able to walk, too bad it takes loosing something to realize what It ment to you. I knocked out a wall and put in the stair case in my kitchen that the house was designed with back in 1917. I like it a lot more.  The hole in the wall was just .25" sheetrock for the past 50 years. 
The stairs are oak that I stained Gunstock. 
Ok I had to put that in there. lol. I used a circ saw.......no really I did. 
I am working on a trim board for the wall then a railing to match the original woodwork on the other stair case. this goes to the landing in the foyer. I have since put in a kicker board above the top step. Almost done with this. | | |
| well Im starting on my ranger drag truck project next week......or when ever I get my porting kit and a friend to bring me a compressor. I get to lay on the floor as to not hurt my leg and use a grinder all day for a few days porting on my 1969 460 heads until I think they will support around 500 hp. I figure that will keep me busy for a while. 
my project truck. 
someone elses 460 swap, not sure if im going to follow this swap too closely or if im going to push the engine back further for better weight transfer.  just clears the steering box. 
I too will be making my own fenderwell exit headers. I will more than likely run narrow 14" tires in the front and the rear will run 12" wide slot rims with 295/50/15 tires for the street and slicks at the track. I will be narrowing a ford 9" rear axle and using 3.50 gears with a detroit locker. front springs might have to come from an extended cab truck or cut down from a f series pickup. A friend and I were going to test fit the 460 and the 4 speed toploader trans combo but some dumb guy broke his leg and slowed the build down. lol. I am looking at changing out the bench seat and swaping in some buckets i have from an old camaro. they may be too tall to fit though. any way though by now im just talking to my self and chris here. lol. | | |
| Well for any one that still reads this old site. Im chillin at home for the next month since last time I went riding out at the girlfriends place her sisters horse kicked me in the leg while riding. Dang thing broke my tibia? I got a titanium rod put in and here I sit. lol. I have a month til I can put weight on my leg then starts lite duty at work yay. on the other hand breaking bones is way less painful than people make it out to be, on the other hand moving with one is way harder lol. | | |
