Today was gorgeous..... no wind so I started cleaning up the yard. I'm going to make a circle track and start running the car out there daily to control the weeds. This year I'm starting early before it gets hot out

Days like this it is almost better to have no internet than to have crappy half functioning internet.
 
Driveshaft in the Duster was cracked where the u joint cap goes....had a longer one in the rafters. Took it to a local shop to get it shortened and balanced...thought I would have by now but, looks like Monday now....darn it!!! Really wanted to put it in this weekend. Gas tank started leaking also so that should be here Monday also...Looks like i will be busy next week...

At least you have a local shop that can and will shorten it for you.

Local to me, almost all the old machine shops, crankshaft shops, and driveshaft shops are closed and dead. The existing ones now only want to work on newer with nothing custom or modified.
 
Well, the wife wants a large image of the old Victorian house for a print to hang on the wall.

Of course, she wants the one that is the lowest quality starting image for me to work from. :BangHead:

Figures.

So far, here is the best I have been able to do with the one she wants.

Some days, I swear the first 2 words any woman learns to speak is “I want”

After that, it is just other words added to those first two.

True...this place has been around forever...not much going on in there, I feel like the driveshaft business is all they are doing any more...

We have a good local shop here that does great work and turns it around fast... Not 7 miles from my house...
