Finally into the garage though.......after an extended sit in a storage yard.

and..........finding out it was infested with spiders when I rolled it in toooooo :eek1:

I recall the one guy that posted on here about his truck being infested.....I FEEL YOUR PAIN BROTHER. I don't think we;ve got any poisonous ones in Calgary, but damn we got some big ones...of course the pic never does it justice. Bigger than a Canadian Toonie coin.



There was more than one of these in my truck. and dozens of smaller ones.

That is looking great man.

Oh and why the jar? Just smash that little bugger.

I wouldnt have even pulled the little bastages out, I woulda already been to the store and had 10 bug bomb foggers ready to throw through the windows!
 
close all the doors and windows in the garage and seal them up tight, fog them all to death! i can handle snakes and anything else all day but i don't do spiders.
 
Theres no doors on the truck....it was stored by an irrigation canal for about a year...............NO I didn't think ahead :crazy:



but that was the first one I saw so I nabbed it.....actually rolled the truck into the garage off the trailer about 7pm......bout an hour later went back into the garage to check it out. This bastard spun a web the size of my drivers door OPENING and was parked in the middle of it. I was directly to the Home Depot and picked up a couple can of Raid Spider brew.....tell you what the **** works great and on contact :D
 
I got to find a better way to store my top. When i put it back on it has webs in the corners and within the next couple days of putting it on, bugs start comin out the wood works.
 
Apparently the cage part went onto a different truck, I found these pics on the evolution machine forums


 
Yes it did move on, the frame cage and rear links and diffs created that truck with kings in the rear. I moved on to other interests and parted ways with the pig. My username on Evo's site is 1-5-3-6-2-4........if you're ever over there.
 
For future reference...

For all you other spider haters - brake cleaner kills them quick. And doesn't require a trip to the store since everyone almost always has some around. Carb cleaner works too.
