Yeah, I just need that money tree to grow
My girls used to tell me to "just go to that box on the wall and get some money". It's that easy.
So sucked up water?
It got water in everything. I got it flushed out, I just think I'm going to have to.drain down the fuel tank tomorrow
There are some 5 gal gas cans on a rack next to where the car trailer usually sits, your welcome to go get gas with them but I don't want your old watery gas. 
Did you drain the axles?
Not yet, I'll get them Friday after I get paid lol. I'm hoping to just get it back fired up and off your trailer tomorrow.
And maybe spray the mud out of the interior lol

I suppose I'll update my shame since I have a plan lol.
So apparently water inside an engine induces rod knock.....
I got an engine off craigslist that I'm going to toss in while this one gets a rebuild.
I got the heads back from the machine shop the other day for the clist engine, so after I get paid next week I'll regasket it, and put a new oil pump in and install it.
I also got my new S.M.I qjet right around the time it died, so that will go on the clist engine as well.

Got the new/used engine back into a long block. Had the heads redone. Took it back to @nvrenuf driveway to stab it in today before I go back on night shift tomorrow....
Found out they use a different flywheel on the newer blocks with a one piece rear main. So it all sits and waits till next week.

YARD SALE!!
Lol no one wants small blocks anymore.
I told you, now is the perfect time!
I wonder if there are any updates...? 
Walk outside and check lolI wonder if there are any updates...?
All I have is the leftovers, rumor has it runs better now.
I was just telling Kristina I really need to get that engine and stuff.....
So the newish engine runs pretty decent. I haven't had a properly functioning carb in quite a while.
Lots of little bugs to chase down still, but hey it was a fun day.
I honestly can't thank @nvrenuf enough for letting me crash his driveway and bum stuff!

Ain't no big deal, just glad it's running good and stronger than the old motor. Still waiting on the big smoker burn out video! 
No big updates, I put some pipe on the tna winch center to start a bumper.
I'm going to rebuild the hubs with new bearings and rotors here soon.
Hopefully going to be picking up a new fender and single light core support.
