Come on Dave, the winch isn't even capable of pulling the line tight. Fix the 80!

Thats funny

 

[Sporin]

The 80 is my wheeling rig for 4-5 more years, of course it's getting fixed!

Nice tires Lane. What size are they?

Hope you feel better Dave.

36-12.50 radials.

 

[Leaping Deer]

not cruiser related, but my new edit bay came in at work.

MacPro Tower with an AJA HD I/O
Lacie 10tb big drive backup
CalDigit HDone raid array
New dual 22" monitors

FCP, Full Adobe Suite, Magic Bullet Looks, etc.


One step closer to throwing my PC based editor off the roof....

awesome.

I just got a Kodak Zi8 to start doing some family videos and maybe some potential "Funny of Die" submissions. Going to play around with iMovie.

Just ordered new rockers from Iron Pig. $179 for the set. Told him my dilemma about the rust behind it and he said to cut it all out, weld in 2" box tube and weld the rocker panel onto that. Should be super strong and will look nice when finished.

Debating whether to paint it white/rustic green or white/pumpkin. Going back to 2 tone. Thoughts?

Unemployment is fun!

I movie is a surprisingly good editor.

It uses an H.264 codec to get out to youtube (preset output!) with a pretty good result.

Let me know if you need any help with it.


John- all 55's should be 2 tone. Just my .02 Either way- too cool

 

[40Flipper]

Agreed. White and green was the original paint scheme. Pumpkin looks cool but I might be a little burned out on it

 

[Sporin]

white and green would be sweet

John - Do you have rust through or just pitting? Cutting it out would be a last resort of you're not going to wheel it hard. Does Lance have any pics of what he is explaining?

 

[40Flipper]

Rust through the back side of the rocker part that is already cut out. The back side is still there on one side of the truck, gone on the other. The side that is still there is like swiss cheese. Not much to work with at all. \

Sounded simple. Will check closer once the replacement rockers get here

 

[rapovt]

Rustic green and white is the best pig color

Final label designs for my Wicked Good Wine project. Have a meeting with Twin River next week which has a restaurant named "Wicked Good" Should be an easy sales call.

 

[Sporin]

I like them!

 

[82cruiser]

Dig it John. Good luck on the call.

Someone on another board is looking for a company that will widen steelies, pretty sure a few guys on here have had that done, anyone know the name of the company? Begins with an S I think.

 

[82cruiser]
