Hello all.
Ive been spread thin with life as of late. So I havent had time to do much of anything else. Here is where I stand with everything today.
Do I know what is going on with my truck?
Kind of. I know what I want to have done to my truck. I just dont know what progress has been made to it. Why? Because I dont have any pictures. Progress reports are few and slow. getting in contact with Russ and Hardy can be diffucult most of the time.
Have I run out of money?
No, money is not an issue. Having left over parts around the house or being shipped back home are. Not for me, but for the missis. So, everything but the body, and the tires will be sold.
This was a change made a few months ago. Where I noted that Im not waiting on just the axles, But a few tweeks and changes here and there. They money from the parts will go to towards other options. New rims, parts and accessories. But again, pictures would help.
What to do now?
Well, There is not much I can do right now. I have a new cleaning business that we have started (the missis and I) and we do 75% of the work. Plus I work a second part time job at home depot. that way I can work 7 days a week.
In one way, Having my Cruiser up north free's up a parking spot in front of the house. Since I work late and wake up later, I have only 6 hours from wake up to go back to work. That gives me time to do what needs to get done around the house and everything else. About 1 hour is dedicated to doing nothing productive
So, the past two years have gone by quite fast. And also uneventfull with the land cruiser. Being out of site out of mind.
Has it been too long?
Yes, I think it has. In fact I know it has. I should have been up and running 6 months after I started this thread. When I go out to do a job, And I tell a customer we can have it done in X amount of hours, It gets done... If not, I lose a customer, time, material, (Gas) and money. it adds up fast.
So on one side, Im upset, but on the other side, Im still upset.
Now What?
I keep working. Portal-Tek is about 10 hours or so away. maybe 8 or so the way I drive. I would need 3 days off to drive up there to make the trip worth while. That would give me time to do everything I wanted. September would be the next avi. time I would have to go up there and check the place out. Unless Portal-Tek wants to Fly me up there, Ill have to wait untill then.
Im still waiting on pictures.

I'll cool my comments and not rain on your excitement at seeing some progress. I hope this beast turns out better than your dreams!
