Cowboy is pissed it’s already empty

So, you're saying Cowboy is enjoying the seats?

Worst for sale ad ever.

About to rip it out.

 

[wngrog]

There is always one thing I forget to unhook….

My 500# cart has an axle on it so I could not pull the heavy ass Warren Wench off easily so I went over it

 

[deliverance]

Warren’s wenches are the bestest

 

[wngrog]

Finished stripping out anything and everything that I can get powder coated right now. Broke down the seats and frames.

Loaded up the OddBall trailer, grabbed some corn free and some calories

What will come of that sniper?

 

[jomelo]

What will come of that sniper?

Engine/trans/tc/axles and sniper etc all sold as a package.

 

[wngrog]

What will come of that sniper?

This whole package is going to one of John’s friends. It’s great stuff for sure. Too nice to be used as a core.

Cowboy was waiting on me when I got back from the powder run and instructed me to get the show on the road.

First thing was to get the 40 out of the shop. I called on the OddBall

Then I got that heavy ass motor on a pallet to head back to Florida.

Now to clean so I can Lizard Skin…..Paint….Fluid film this thing properly

Scrape. Vacuum. Blow. Wash.

Dust in the air

John’s driveway ….

Pressure wash …. wish I had put a drain in this pad.

Looking good. What size are those tires?

255/85-16

The new “tall skinny” we all used to love. The Yokohama’s measure out 32.5” x 9 on a City Racer 16x:5 wheel. It’s a perfect match.

Don't be going all 70s on us!

Does anyone make a decent set of jump seat straps? All the ones I get from the usual aftermarket are s*** and fade and fray in 6 months

I've been working on a set of straps that should be pretty near indestructible. If you have a couple weeks I can get a set out to you. Consider it a donation... Black, OD or Natural?

 

[wngrog]

Natural. Just holla when you get em done. Thanks
