I'd love to get the new drums, bearings and wheels for the M101 together but I don't think I'll have the time. Maybe I'll take a day off and bang it out. Also Need to buy some camping equipment. I'm an eagle scout with not even a sleeping bag. Pitiful

Rear pull point.
Front tow point, Front end alignment, find two front rims paint them and have the 33"s mounted, find a 33" spare, build a tailgate for the flat bed, RI state inspection and change fluids. Also want to put some miles on it as a shake down test before driving it up to NH.
If there is time... New center arm and steering rag joint. Probably a number of other things.
