Using a proven wheeling truck with another driving truck, plus more parts.
Remind me never to sell a vehicle to Dave.....
At least I wheeled it for a few years before Mark convinced me to tear it apart!
Unless you mean something else..
I was referring to Dave's constant criticizing of the "as is" used truck he bought.
I feel sorry for you.See above.
I honestly don't criticize @Bent77 about the truck I bought from him. BUT , I do like giving him grief when he tells me "you're welcome" for things that he did funny on purpose, or didn't do, like paint valve covers.
He was VERY HONEST about the truck I bought from him, before I even got to see it in person. But, now as friends , we get to trade BS like no Other!
And it looks lonely waiting for me to get more done..

That does look really lonely sitting there in that huge empty bay with none of the rest of it's parts any where to be seen. LOLI honestly don't criticize @Bent77 about the truck I bought from him.

And let it be know that the bent one felt bad for the coolant leaks on this engine, even offered to let me borrow one from him.
But don't let it get around that he is actually a good guy!
But he is a good Putz!

It is nice to work in, unfortunately I have to STAY at work to use it for personal stuff. But I was working in 71* temps Saturday when it was 94* outside.

I got to make the body fly today!!!
I now get the pleasure of removing the 4 rear body mount bolts, which only the rear ones broke. And hopefully fix the floor under the seat mounts. I found a few cracks.

You cheater. Get back to your paying job!
I will, tomorrow... I took today off since it's been 24 years with my wife today!
And I don't call that cheating...
I did it all by myself!! Even had to push the buttons on the control myself!
I had to get something done, since @Bent77 was calling me a slacker, and telling me to get to work!
Am I the only one that had to take a second look at the pic to see how the body was suspended over the frame? I was looking for arms from a lift but didn't see any. Had to look further up to see the overhead crane and chain. Good work though..
The only reason that I lifted it that much was due to the wires for the knock sensor and the starter hanging down. I didn't want to risk snagging on the engine. Otherwise you could have possibly had a better look at the wooden beam and strap.
