Well, we are unusually warm today to -16C/3F,

Balmy!

It got up to -17C/1F here outside Denver, Colorado today. Snowed until 3pm. I took the trash out “Bob style”: shorts, t-shirt, no shoes.

Currently -23F/-9F and it’s not yet 9pm.

I did take a Zoom (actually Google Meet, I banned Zoom at work) in the nude at 8am, but left the camera off, ‘cause nobody wants to see that, and I’d have to talk to HR. Again.

TBC: I was indoors.

@FJ60Cam sent me notice the 4.4L 2F is done but this was is headed for a 40, not a 55. Next time.

Neighbors didn’t show though. Bob’s got that on me.

Pulled pto assembly off 5 spd,

What's the plan here? That PTO was never an option for the US buyers, a hard one to find. Mine came right from Japan.

 

[Pigeaten]

changing out Moseley 2F for 5.3, have to take this transfer case to Texas to hook up pto

Good day today working on the pig. Installed a new steering wheel, set toe, and mounted a winch. I’m beat.

 

[RUSH55]

Much more appropriate, Mike! Looks good!

Cool looking dash, Have not seen it before

 

[Lifelong40Fan]

It’s definitely an original. Minus the flux capacitor, it actually does look similar to this.

 

[scrapdaddy]

Your lean to is turning out nice, a good place to work.

 

[xtiaan2000]

Wanna see some more pics of that dash! Looks like you have something pretty cool to work with!

 

[Lifelong40Fan]

Well, I would prefer the original, but this one has the advantage of the dash pad never wearing out. All the gauges work.

 

[greenbeast]

Hello pig brethren, plenty of cruisers in Kenya! These are ideal for traveling and watching wildlife.
Must be popular, guessing 20:1 with the Land Rover!

 

[RUSH55]

Haven’t seen one of those yet - some kind of extended Troopy. Lots of possibilities there!
Looks awesome Jon! Be safe, have fun!

It's like anything else, if you are dressed/prepared for it, it's really not that bad. The ones that don't do well here are the ones that hide inside all winter - it's long and dark, if you don't get out, you'll go a little (more) nuts. This was sunrise about 11am the other day off the back porch, there are worse places to live...View attachment 3533880

Sunrise at 11 - that would take some getting used to!!!
How far off the horizon is the sun rising these days?
At least the days are getting longer!
