    I am sure if @Casper66 decides to get rid of it he will do his best to get the right amount for it though it will never be the right amount but if it affords the ability to be debt free and retire it would be worth it.

    Agree.
    My friend's '68 Chevelle SS is a good example.
    He's taking his time doing a frame off and will be worth a small fortune when He's done. He even has the original drivetrain that's going back in. He's had it for over 40 years and will never sell, but pass it on to his son.

    Tracking info is BS.
    I ordered sheets when I ordered the bed for the truck, I tracked it across the country, and tracking showed it was stuck in phoenix for 3 days for some reason. Called the company to find out WTF and they say they were out of stock and never shipped it. WTF???

    So today I identified my entire electrical panel. What a mess! A lot of trips up and down the stairs. Did some rearranging and cleared a spot for 30A 240V breaker at the top right location. I going to make my own locking plate for the main shut off. Electrician quoted me $2000 for what I did today. :thumbsup:

    Ordered a Lego set on Amazon last week. They haven't shipped yet and they are in stock. If you don't pay for premium shipping they don't bust their ass to get it shipped:annoyed:

    In other Rip off news, I got up this morning my wife informs me she broke her 2 month old laptop, cracked screen, $60 for the screen on Amazon, $100 to install, it takes about 15min, $400/hr, I'll give it a go myself! When Amazon decides to ship it:rolleyes: Until then she'll have to plug into the TV to use her computer:D

    All you need now is the outside plug,cable, breaker, and lockout.

    Hope he's doing OK.
    Either the creeping crud/death rattle that's been going around is beating him up or he has no power.:sick:

    @Tacoma Mike

    Mike , need your input on this

    Looking for new rear tires as my old Mickey Thompson 275/60 15 Drag Radials are worn out and any throttle input will blow them away with very little effort

    I'm looking at these ET Street R Bias ply 28x11.50 15 slicks
    https://www.summitracing.com/parts/...MIlv2r_JGa1wIVgkCGCh34qguPEAQYASABEgK-2vD_BwE

    I'm already running a Bias Ply drag race front tire ... http://www.jegs.com/i/Mickey-Thompson/672/1573/10002/-1

    So hopefully no more top end dancing past the stripe as I did with the radials in the rear . Now these new rear bias ply tires require a tube but have been reading that some don't run a tube
    Now would you run a tube or not ???

    Good evening folks, happy birthday Chuck.

    Got the docks done at work, had wet feet most of the day. One more project done and checked off the list.
