Did a little more work on the truck. Oil change, grease job. Window trim and rearview mirror. It needs to be lower as rear window is low, so not much distance behind truck. Moved gas pedal. Its worse than it was before i modified it. So, revisiting that. And litte to no resistance on pedal. Not...

Thes stupid turbine wheels. With the 1” spacers which i hate are causing issues. Drilled to clear the studs, but they arent running concentrically. Have to fiddle to get them right. I may see the machinist, get proper holes drilled.

Its an 80, macho package. It needs box sides, full floors, cab mounts and rockers are still solid i think. I have 3 donor trucks so i should be able to scavenge enough to fix it up. Father/son project. Its going on a cummins chassis.

Morning! No rain today and tomorrow. Looks like we are good to go for car show on monday. We volunteer, working the sign in booth. And Kim sells club T-shirts and hats.

Wait until i start sharing the power wagon project. Its beyond rough.

Its gonna be a hit!

Need a few decals..

@toolmanmike scan tool question. 95/96 s10 was transition from obdI to obdII. Mine is obdI with obdII data link. There is an adapter. Otherwise there is no communication. Ever heard of such a thing?

Got some kinks ironed out, Kims door-i forgot to tighten striker. Closes nice now. Fixed the crappy exhaust repair,and extended tailpipe straight out the back. Its running kind of wierd, but its been a while since it has seen any highway, egr may be acting up. Well, it is- code 32 is all it puts...

Morning! Rain. Guess i will go and start picking away at the clunks and rattles in the Studebaker. Modify the gas pedal. List isnt really long.

First cruise was ok, not great just ok. Some bugs to work out,check engine light came on. I suspect egr. And rattles.

Dangit! I just got studebaker good enough to drive, but no sealant around the glass. Hope it fizzes out.

Well, as i suspected the carb was dirty. Cleaned and its back to purring again. Got title for Studebaker in my name,and a 7 day permit for “road testing” . So picking away at the loose parts that need to go on. Alas, i ran out if steam. So trip to town and back will give me a little rest and...

Morning! Chilly morning again. Going to hit insurance office this morning for a temporary tag for the studebaker. Then Buddy’s impala needs carb cleaned. Junk floating around in the bowls causing rough idle and surging. Its a convertible, used every year for the parade since he bought it. Hes...

Scary. Like the storm here,a few years back. Lightning strike knocked stuff off shelves and neighbours garage burned down. It was a scary night. Glad everyone is ok.

Left window in studebaker is good. Left rear fender is back on. Then buddy’s Beetle is out of storage.semi-auto transmission. Neutral start is sticky. Crawled under and jumped starter. Guess what? Was in gear. Lightning fast to get out of the way of the tire. Missed me by that much. Told him it...

Guy built his car with air,no room for a transmission cooler in front of rad. Under car with a scoop.

Looks like someone is trying to sell an overpriced box,no clock.

Morning! Another cool morning and chance of rain. Studebaker should have functioning windows on both sides today. Want to get rear fender bolted on too.

Hauled the tires. 38 in total. I think another 20 to go. Brake pads done as i mentioned earlier and buddy’s brake leak is fixed. Back to stude tomorrow.

It happens. Some are akward,and glass is fragile now. Then there seems to be a sense of urgency when setting them. Makes a fella rush.

Somewhere in the misplaced owners manual is a procedure to move pistons in.

Picked up my toys, and swept the floor. Escape for rear brakes. Have to connect scan tool to wind the pistones in. Guess i better finish my coffee anf get on with it.

Morning! Nice calm clear morning. But its going to change. Didnt get the T-storm that was promised yesterday. Will attack the driver side glass today. I know it will go easier. Urethane on right vent should have cured,so i can clean off the excess.

Holee! Is almost tomorrow. I fell asleep after supper and then and mowed grass for an hour or so. Watching videos since i came back inside.

I prefer mccoffe over tims any day. And i dislike going to tims. Its all crap. And not many of the staff speak english very well.

Me. I prefer to pay cash for my food.

Well, what a day. Glass was a royal pain to install. Broke vent window twice. First one in truck second one while i was cutting it..

Mirrors, steel wool and spray nine. Buffed up good enough. Chrome grille is rough, i love it. And vent window was a challenge. Now the big glass.

I think the bug catcher would look awesome on the hood of the Fargo. Non-functioning of course.
