There he goes again is this one of them new fangled european designer drugs? I guess it inhales faster....... that is if you inhale of course.


Jeeze JP, go without internet for a couple weeks and you start a new resto. When can I drop mine off?

oh and congrats to you two

 

[daniel.watters]

Any updates? I bet you've already dropped the b in the 45 and almost done... right?

Redneck paradise pulling 1962 #3 into position to remove the drivetrain for resto. Should be a fun weekend

 

[daniel.watters]

JP, the lpb has a winch now? I have an old 40 series pto out back... will it fit a 62 fj40 or I think they would have gotten an earlier one?

If you need some help this weekend, I could come by!

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

Well you see Crick, when I was younger I always wanted to grow up and be as RED as you. I feel like I am finally approaching that level.... but to behonest to many of vehicles actually run and drive so I am going to have to work on that and I must admit PBR still tastes like piss to me but I feel I am not too far from the lofty standard you have set for Rednecks every where!! Crick you are an inspiration to us all

 

[Trollhole]

That same still looks him right.

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

The engine is just about ready to come out and look at that side shifting 3spd it is the rarest land cruiser trans there is

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

Engine is out!!

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

Taking time to celebrate Mexico's independence, then pressure washing the drivetrain

 

[BillWright]

Crick?

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

Crick?

the origins of "Crick" as stated by Marshall, from the Chit-chat section

"Chuck is just cross eyed. Been that way since he was a baby. When he was a little boy his friends used to call him Crick. Because Chuck was the smartest one of the bunch and always knew everything. But poor old Chuck was cross eyed. He couldn't see a dewbug on a lilly pad 3 ft in front of him. He constantly shot his friends thinking he was getting that red tailed squirrel or that black footed possum. To this day that nickname stands. Cross eyed Chuck was his name but you can call him Crick for short. And before you gets to hollarin about the missspellins in that name. Look at Chuck and then look at that name and tell me it don't look him right."

don't know if that helps you Bill but it makes me laugh every time

 

[ClemsonCruiser]

Pressure wash done time to start painting
