If I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have luck at all, lol.

Bad tire. I knew taking scrap back last week was a bad idea. Thought the stud was spinning so cut the cap off and pulled the drum. Just a cheap ass lug trim cover spinning. Hope to go get it fixed and get on the road. At work til 10 last night and finishing customer orders today so not exactly as planned. Was hoping to be on the road before noon!

I like a man that takes tires off with multiple vice grips
 
New Carlisle tire, doing the other 3 next week. Stop at the grocery store and rolling back in with the 80 to get the show on the road. Probably a nice rest area hilton tonight.

Where are your spares mister? When you put a landcruiser on a trailer behind a white Tundra, you need at least 4... especially when... View attachment 2115589

Yeah yeah I know. I have a spare with me. Switching out the other 3 tires when I get back. These have actually been pretty good but 4 trips to scrap steel bit the one tire
 
And we are moving. Finally!

Y'all have a good time and stay warm and dry. We are out this year. Too many other irons in the fire right now, but know that I am using this weekend to better the piggy world. I am taking the '69 to @Rainman this weekend so that he can pattern the brake lines and will be taking him the '71 parts truck soon so that he can pattern those as well. Not to step on his thunder, but look for a source for your replacement hard lines for the 55's to be added to his catalog soon.
 
Thanks Matthew! Guys. I'm hoping to finally get all the patterns for your Pigs soon. Been trying for some time and @jynx finally has been someone to step up to the plate and help me out in a huge way. I may only have a little over half of the needed lines patterned since there are 4 different sets of patterns for your trucks.

I should have soon the kits for:
68 - 6/70s
7/70 - 8/71s

The others are:
9/71 - 8/75
9/75 - 80

The knuckle and axle lines are the same as FJ40s so I have all those. I just need the firewall lines and chassis lines.
