For Stock Rigs Only

Good morning deputized handyman

 

Fred

 

Truck got a bath and touched up the Cosmoline a little bit today

 

nice undercarriage Adam!!

 

Thanks! I actually hand scrubbed some of the stuff under there like the shocks so I could get another coat of Cosmoline on them. It might be a little overboard...

 

More than just a "might" be. We should probably draw the line at giving your truck a happy end to its massage.

 

I am not like that freak on that TV show I just feel if you spend $40K on something you aught to take care of it...

 

That's with me being fairly light on the throttle.....but still 70 mph on the highway with the A/C on most of the time. I'm officially above the combined city/highway average of 35. The upward pace has definitely slowed down. We'll she where she tops out at.

I think the only way to get it considerably higher would be to "hyper mile" it.....and that's too damn much work. Beides, 55 mph on I-75 would get you killed and I like A/C too much. I'll leave that to the hippies

 

You uave delightful underpinnings, Adam.

 

FTFY


Oh wait, shit...

 

Dad took his latest project on its maiden voyage to test the newly rebuilt engine. He looks like a damned cartoon character driving around the neighborhood*meep meep*

 

Hey, A Classic…….

 

That's badass!

 

Feast your eyes. They only made 851 corvair rampsides in 1964. He has three of the dang things.

 

Saw one at lime rock.
And a VW with those fold down sides.
Cool shit back then

 

Your dads cool shit.

 

Yeah, I don’t know what the hell happened. Damned NTSB and all this safety bs probably. My MK2 used to say ‘if we were meant to wear seatbelts, we wouldnt have foreheads’.
