Right place, wrong time...

This seems to be the only "convenient" time i get to ride... Hell of a lightning show, and a whole bunch of rain drops.

Tires

Slapping on a set of tires... In the shed.

Happy 3rd birthday lil' buddy!

Well my little buddy turned three today. Three going on five. For three he sure does seem to know an awful lot. I'm in constant aww of word selection and emotion. I love you Ardun Crash Emmett, Happy 3 years old!

Loco Greengo

It's only a matter of time... She'll be back and prettier than ever!

HaPpY nEw YeAr!!!

Two wheels or four...

Start it off with a BANG!

My new years resolution is to two wheel it every chance I get, make time for my ol' pals I rarely see, be the best husband and father I can be, and kick that nasty hoarding habit I've been hoarding... That ought to keep me busy for a year...

The Tumbleweed Boys

Momma just left for the grocery store and told us to stay home and clean...

Career choice



Heath Murray. True friend, true hot rodder. Heath has given me oportunity to work on hot rods Monday thru Friday.  This gives me weekends to spend with the family. Positive vibes in my future. 



WEEKENDS with the family!

DFW - Detroit - DFW

Left DFW on a late flight after work on Saturday. Pop's left Fort Worth on Wednesday (3 days ahead of me). He picks me up at the DTM Airport at almost midnight. We get up on Sunday and head on over to the Henry Ford Museum and Greenfield Village. After a long day of soaking up some of Michigan's sights we head on over to Carl's and pick up my newest purchase... Get a good night's sleep... And  Truck it on home to the DFW. Great trip, great weather, and great people... oh, and great purchase!

picked it up on 9-11



finally made it home

back to the good ol' homestead!

The Missing Link

Had a driveshaft built the other day... $237.00. That is all I've been waiting on to go for a test drive. Burn outs are to come. 

Face lift...a cheap one

fitted sheet metal

color matched hood and added bumper

rattle can aluminum grille

she almost looks respectable... 10-2-4

The Polishing of a Turd



thats one way to block a hole



polished turd

close enough

$2.50 a can times 2 cans = good enough

K5 #2 (The 78)

So I fired the ol' turd up tonight and coated the shop floor with oil. It just so happens that the transmission cooler line got a pin hole in it when it was in the 51. Other than that it's coming together nicely. It still needs drop spindles, radiator, exhaust and a drive shaft. I'll dye the seats and slap some carpet in it and color match the hood. Almost forgot... I'm gonna need some painted steelies and dog dish caps. 

Saturday Night Outing

Rode Trusty out to D-Town with a friend to see a band play. Nice night to be out and about.

From the Deer Lease to Easy Street

A hard days night... or two.





Thanks Allen for the parts 'Burban

Nice dent...

All I had to do was take the door panel off and press it out by hand. That was the easiest thing I've done all week. Add another two wheel drive Blazer to my collection. Should be on the road in about a month... Funds permitting.

Ready to Roll

$40 cheap insurance. How old are your bearings?

Winter in Texas

It was cool at first... 4 Days later, we are all tired of this shit!

Friendship

http://cheapthrillsandgoodtimes.blogspot.com/

Took the ol' CB across town to have a beer with an old friend. Seems like these days are all busy raising kids and dedicating time with the family. I need to set aside a lil' time for old pals, we're only getting older by the day... Check out Mike's blog and buy something... It'll make you cooler.

Pistons and Paint 2010 Trophy

Making a trophy for a car show that I wont be attending. Damned JOB gets in the way of all the saturday fun stuff. I'll post pics of it completed, and of the ride given to.

Road trip to Dublin pt.2

Stopped in Granbury on the way home. Too early to see a movie.

Crossing over a bridge from the Hilton to the beach.

Sand rookie. First time in the sand.

This looked like it was going to be the last really pretty weather day for a while. I only get one full day a week to spend with Ardun and I want to make it memorable. If I can only be "Super Dad" one day a week, at least I am able to be "Super Dad"...
