I feel left out. I've only got 36 D's here. But now it's time to go to sleep with her. I'm sure it'll be all good.:lol:

My road trip to Montesano went pretty good, 3 hrs each way. I picked up the poles and spreaders, he had a ton, he had quite a collection of stuff. Definite collector who bought from military DRMO, these's poles were Army, had the NSN on them, good quality. Here's some pics of his place, doesn't do justice to show what all he had there. The welder is from a college, there's a cool boom truck, don't know what the Chevy is. Lastly, guy was a Vietnam Vet. He was the first to go up the Viet river? in both North and South Vietnam, Mitch pls correct me it that's not the river.

I love "stuff". The Miller is a grid type CC welder Common in shipyards/ plants, places like that....I used them often. Mostly stick and some TIG at the power house

Probably in South Vietnam. Probably the Mekong River or the River Co Chein. Both are in the south down here. No big main river through Hanoi and North. :thumbsup:

It just didn't make an sense to me at the time to reduce, make bent tubing, another reducer/flange to the Purple Hornies. Extra weight, more parts to break, and God forbid if someone I knew saw them installed like that :lol:. I had the older version too, straight 4" from collector to the turn down. The little dust storm they always set off when you lit up the hot rod :lol:.
6 bolts and you were uncorked :lol:. Probly worked out for the best, with the turbo mufflers. All my 16 year old brat needed was noisy pipes attracting more attention to her. :lol:

The ones I have are just straight, no collector plates or turn downs. I also notched my crossmember and strengthened it. Will allow the exhaust to tuck up a bit closer
 
Yesterday I put out some deer food, it's an orange azelea. I ended up using 6 posts, will likely have to add more fencing/posts as it grows taller. Prolly shoulda went with a rhody as the deer don't eat them lol but they don't come in orange!

Patio or living room for our Azelia.
 
Looks like the weather goomers have all the right parts in place for some rain starting tomorrow evening. Kinda late in the seasonal game, but every little bit helps.
