Morning
I'm working on prepping for a propane tank install on 11th, rented a 24 inch deep trencher. I did a locate, knew where the water was and still managed to hit something......gutter drain system! 4 inch pipe buried 12 inches deep, will be digging around it today. Going to be lazy and have it fixed by plumber.
I have a little backhoe for my Kioti tractor. I was doing a lot of digging for people but stopped for that reason. And even though they are certain there is no lines here If I dig it up it is always on me. So no I am very selective now
Morning to you all. Weather is still nice, but windy as **** the last couple days. Not many farms in the area, but lots of BS in the wind.
Went to Kansas City yesterday and spent some time with an old friend.
He races a 2019 Corvette with a supercharger.
He drives a 2018 McLaren GT, and has a vintage Porsche for his classic car.
Its funny the difference in what we think and what we like.
We took the McLaren to lunch. It had a small crowd of 13-14 year old kids looking at it when we came out.
He popped the drivers door and let them take turns sitting in it and having their pictures taken.
I'm sure they'll remember that for a long time.
I'm heading out soon and get some leaves picked up this morning before it gets windy.
Have a great day.

Morning, looks like a great day to hang in the garage. 1 degree (34F) now and going to warm to 19 (67F), which is warm for November here. Had a new upper control arm mount welded in on the right side Thursday night and now I can get back to swapping out my 10" drums for a set of used Kelsey Hayes that I bought 3 years ago from a FABO member. Who says I procrastinate? lol.
I doubt I could even get in the 2018 McLaren GT

Hahah I can top that. I’m just now installing the Quarter panel I got from AMD at the Mopar Nats in 2015...
ANd I can beat that. But we will not talk about it here. It is for my E Body
That's some time past. Truth be known, I put it on the hoist at the beginning of July. Now I have to get it off the hoist so we can start changing out our summer tires for winters, for family and friends.

Well up here on the frozen tundra competitive shooting season is ended so I will dust off my build thread and engage once more in trying to stuff the new Hemi in the Demon. Summers are so very short it is hard to focus on indoor activities. But man it feels like summer here. Frank must have sent us some balmy weather.
Ya, you're probably 6 hours north, 12 hours straight west from me and getting the same warm weather. I've never been more ready for the snow, yard raked, grass cut short, plow on the ATV, snowblower checked and its sunny and warm.

Kids are attracted to my 59 4dr Fury also, so I open the door and let them try out the swivel seats. Then I ask how do you put it in drive?, push button. Maybe they will be a future collector

When I take my Cuda to the occasional show I always let kids sit in it for photo ops. What can they possibly hurt? Toggle switch dash, roll bar, and steering wheel is thrown up on the dash. They get a super cool memory and see the “other” side of our hobby. Absolutely nothing stock or original, taking car to the extremes of its performance potential.
International Travelall. Nice!

I’ve made more progress on mine this year than in the last 6 combined. Covid forced us to work from home, so I’m saying 3 hrs a day from not traveling to work
I might be able to get in but I don't know about getting out. LOL
Nice!
I like the old station too. Reminds me of my house.

I always ask folks if their tetanus shots are up to date before getting in the Jalopy.

Que Karl for the oil comments!
Man covid is getting really bad here all of a sudden, Friday 3000 new cases yesterday 4000, that's a 25% increase. At that rate it will be 10K in a week!
Ouch. That's not good. Outr numbers have spiked as well.
