Don't look like the yard work is doing itself. Guess I ought to get moving. Did some weed killing yesterday. Probably some more of that and trim a few bushes and some low tree branches...

75 bucks. It's seized up, number 7 cylinder rusty but not pitted. Overall, not a bad score for something I seen in the paper this morning
I had 3 pistons seized in my numbers GTS 383. Actually removed 5 rods and pistons, then had to roll the crank out of it...LOL Then a steel pipe and a 20lb sledge on the pin area of three pistons, to drive em out..........LOL LOL LOL

I recently changed out a few more boards on the top deck. Those are 10 ft. scavenging good sections from ones I removed to fix lower deck today. Might still get at a little of that yard work I mentioned. Just thought fixing a holes in the deck was more important...
Keefer you have to much energy or is it to get away from the wife? I do that a lot myself.

Neither, cant afford a Home Depot laborer, and this **** ain't getting itself done. As you always say, "I'm only one deep"
I am a redhead so not that deep!
I must be good at that too. (just ask my wife) LOL No, I got a 273 that had been through 2 floods. All 8 slugs were stuck. I took all the bearing caps off and was able to roll the crank out. You know, you have to save those steel cranks when you can. And if you crank just needs to be polished, even better yet.

this is a cast crank but i'll probably have it internally balanced IF i were to ever actually use it. If not, maybe I'll haul it to Carlisle and flip it for a couple hundred bucks
I think we were talking about the crank in Mitch's original 383 crank out of his GTS. What crank do you have? Is it a Poly crank? They are forged.
Looks good, A good power wash for all of it and stain away.
I hear a grumble of thunder.
