Oh Hell no !!!


I joined the Military especially the Marines as one my Dad was a Korean War Army Vet and the other was I wanted to prove to myself I could survive one of the hardest Military Boot camps and Branch of service

I wanted to retire in the Marines but a training incident during a CAX ended that dream . Yes now Today I proudly wear everyday my USMC Veterans hat with multiple pins on it , also wear various Marine T shirts . I also proudly display the US Flag and Marine Corps Flag and on a wall inside my place I display my Honorable Discharge diploma , a pic of myself in Dress Blues and my original Dog Tags

 

I have a Grouser V3 Flex Plane that goes on the front. They are for skidsteers and light tractors.

It does ok but I need to change a few things on it. The sides aren't very high so it doesn't carry material very far without losing it over the sides. I also want to add more plates to the sides to give it a little more strength. And I want to add a a "door" to the right side in the very rear to lose material when I'm pulling road edges so it quits leaving a windrow on the left side that way it'll act similar to a grader and not just a leveler.... and I need to add plate to the very front to angle the big rock out of the way that it can't process inside the box. It will move the bigger rock but, since the front is flat the rock will go where it wants and not off to the right and out of the way.

 

Time to build a squirrel catapult !!!

Afternoon Sue !!!

Is Florence causing a lot of problems for your area ??

 

What tractors are fun.
Diggin dirt n pushin stuff over is relaxing.

 

Hi Chuck. Not for my area yet. Little breezy, but that's all for now.... Gusting to 25 or 30 mph. Supposed to get worse later on tonight/tomorrow.

What'cha up to?

 

Not much right now just drinking my Coffee but later on head to the car show in Apple Valley later on this afternoon !!!

 

another car show? Don't these folks have to work?

 

Ouch !!!

Just got a quote for a 434sbc engine from a local Race Engine shop .Was told a 434sbc with a Dart little M block , Forged rotating assy with approx 550-600hp

Was told $20k and take 2 mo to build !!!!!!

 

Majority of them are retired , the car show starts at 1700hrs but if you don't get there by 1500hrs most of the good parking spots are already taken

I like going to this show as it's put on by the VVALP Humane Society !!!

 

Worry when she sends you for the quick lime, plastic and muriatic acid....you know lime for the flower beds and the acid to clean the concrete with......

Cypher

 

I think i have that stuff somewhere. I do onow where my dd214 is at least.

 

I thought you said there was a pile of stuff needed to be fixed before you could race? Have at it though supporting a local buisness. With the time you have why not save some money and just get the machine work done then assemble and install yourself?

 

Race engine + Tacoma. Easy math.
