Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Been a while Michael, just checking in to see how things are going?

Cheers from my train into London for the day.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Hmmmm Stepside up on the hauler? Are those boxes of exhaust parts? What could all this mean? Mystery abounds........

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

hope it means that the truck is underway once more… getting exhausted perhaps.
also hope you will join us in October again this year.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

X2!!! Glad to see you out here...:metal:

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

That don't look like Tacoma? I'd love to see your place if you're around. Would also be happy to lend a hand whenever you might need. Boy is pretty deep in the engine buiz and can score some jobber type stuff on the cheap too!

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

"it lives"

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Time to let that thing roll!

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

It has an appointment next week to get exhausted....and I will sort of be there this year Clem.

:thumbs:

Your number the same? Will try calling you today.

Yeah.....almost. Still with only 2.5 on the odometer.....LoL

I am about to join the ranks of those who have cool garage / shops.....just not quite yet......

More to come!

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Look forward to seeing that

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Oh cool on the shop any pics of the shop

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Shop-garage photos soon....we are set to close Tuesday.

Progress:thumbs:

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Whoa, and a lift?

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Serious garage envy here..:metal::metal::metal:

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Nice!:metal:

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Guys, I don't think that is his shop. Looks like a pic taken at the muffler shop...

But, if I'm wrong, then, WOW, nice shop and lift!

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Sorry for any confusion. The photo is from inside the muffler shop. It's getting professionally exhausted.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Here are the first photos of the garage-shop. It was a 2.5 with another 2.5 added on. It lets out into a paved alleyway. Stepside seems to like it in there. More photos to follow.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Looks great Sir!!!:metal:

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Interesting lay out.
I like it.
Now for some updates..... hows the tow truck doin'?

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Looks nice! Lots of room to work on the stepside.

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Lots of fun to be had in that kind of space, congrats!

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

So... you moved in out of the country place?

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Renting that place and will the tow truck fit in there too

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Any updates Murph?

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

Its been a busy year, an not having internet has surely sucked, but that time has passed. I just have to limit myself now, or whole days will evaporate in front of my eyes for certain!

Thank you

The truck is nestled in a corner, whilst the Tempest parked in front of it seems be getting buried in junk I am too busy to find a home for....

Its a dream, after all the garages I never had....

Yes, it is still just a camper out there, and not an Arctic one either. I would be dying if I were out there right now as it is only 12* outside.

No sir, we bought it. We are going to apartmentize the upstairs of the house, and keep the basement as an in-town crash pad and classic car storage until we build out in the boonies, and they pave the road out there.

Yeah man, life got a hold of me hard. Just as we were closing on this place, the very first house I bought became vacant after some renters that had been there 10 years. The amount of work that has gone into that place has pretty much eclipsed anything other than my fledgling art endeavors. Since 4th of July weekend I have only been taking Sundays off and that is only because there is a figure drawing class I go to.

Last thing I did to it was got it exhausted this Summer, but have not wired in the cut-outs or anything else to it since.

Still it sits with 2.5 miles on the odo.......

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
 

It's good to hear from you McMurphy :)

Re: Not Another Rebuild Thread....
