It's quiet in here

Anything new? I'm locking and replacing the bearings in my FJ62 this weekend. I should be able to finish my camry this weekend also, it got painted yesterday. Wife says the yard looks like crap and the gutters need cleaning. Anyone else have a winter's worth of projects to do in a couple weeks?

I wish a leaf blower would work. Mine are always wet and full of nature. I'd really like to rip the gutters off the house and put up new. It is one of the ONLY things I haven't done to the house yet. I just can't see tearing off something that isn't bad. If there was a self cleaning system that worked, I'd be all over it.

Screw it, I think I'll just go fishing.

Gutters from mudracer

Last year I got tired of cleaning my gutters and had a product called "GUTTER CAPS" instaled. So far no leaves or helicopters cloging up the works. I realy like them so far.

It's not that bad of a job for me to spend money on the old gutters. I just like to bitch about it. It'll be done next weekend or so.

Any lurkers here? Anyone doing any wheeling besides Woody? Bastid was playing golf the other day too. Any new projects going on? I locked the rear end in my cruiser and changed all the bearings. I also pulled out what looked to be the original plugs wires, cap and rotor. It's got all kinds of balls now compared to before. However the battery tray rotted out and was laying on the inner fender. New battery tray is on order and I hope to have it in by the weekend pipeline clean up. Anyone else going to be there?

I'm lurking here and there. Right now fishing season is on so truck work has halted. SPending spare time cleaning up the 69 Z for sale in the next month. From all the interest so far, I may not even have to advertise it. Maybe I can take some of the cash from the sale and apply it to some goodies on the '74 40.

Will do. Give me at least a few days (like this weekend). It truly is a nice clean car.
Oh, I need to figure out posting photos too. Man I procrastinate like no other.

It's quiet in here again. Found the post from last year instead of a new one. Gotta clean the gutters again, yard looks like crap but is still to wet. Not much wheeling in site at the moment.

Anybody doing anything exciting?

Winter has been long and hard on me and the 80. Believe it is time to do the head gasket as I added 1/2 gallon of red juice the other day. 140K on it, so it needs a few other items too.
Figuring on the following:
Valve job
All cooling system hoses, incl. PHH
Plugs and wires
Radiator flush

Anything else I should be considering?

Hank, you still up for this job? I ain't got no time. Building several Motorcycle engines and finishing up the new sidecar rig I built this winter. Rode it to Daytona for bike week, ~4200 miles with the side trip to Arkansas coming home. Got a few items on the punchlist after that trial run. Rescuing a flood victim bike too. Lots of cleanup there.
On the gutter front, I put in Gutter Stuff last fall. It's like an expanded foam or sponge looking stuff that fills the gutter up and prevents crrap building up in there. Had good recommendations from a few pals and seems to make sense. You can get it in sections at True Value.

Yeah, still game just give me some notice. We are finishing up a few projects around here. The Duramax equipped Suburban will make it's maiden transport voyage later this month. We took two months off working on it with a couple of record sales months really taxing the service department. Now it's go time though.
