South Carolina BS thread under new MANAGEMENT and lives in SC

I would take a gun and someone to watch my back when going to get it.

 

Adulting so hard today.. bought a new mattress (really great deal on it).. a new TV stand ($200 off).. to go with my new 65" 4k tv

 

I did some more install on the 51 Chevy in the past few weeks. 10 bolt rear is in along with rear suspension. Needed a 5/8” hole in the frame for the shock crossmember to bolt to. I didn’t have a 5/8” bit. Anybody ever bought a 5/8” bit for steel?? $18 freakin dollars for one drill bit.

 

No way that is legit. Those good condition 1999’s are going for $6000 grand. Wish I still had mine

 

We looked at the 65" TVs at wally world the other day. Thought about spending our meager tax return on one, but ultimately put it into savings.

New mattress is hard to beat, though! Nothing better than a good night's sleep!

 

Definitely a pinch me moment.

 

Got the truck washed and the doors off on the jeep. Little chilli out but still got to drive around for a couple hrs.

 

Man those new Jeeps are nice. Looking good.

 

Having removeable doors is on the mod list for this yr. on the truck.

 

Interesting. They sell kits or will you be fabbing something.
I dig the tube doors for the double cabs, just a bit pricey for me.

 

Nice lookin!

 

Tube Doors and then modifying the hinges for quick change. Will also need to figure out some relocation for speakers since all of them are in the doors, may just mount them in the tube doors and roll like that.

Not that bad of price.

If you is intrested in a little walk around of the buggy.

I’ve been, slowly, working to “retro-ing” my old truck.

Here’s the steering wheel I put in today. I made the cross-spoke covering a slotted “custom” billet one. This is “annodized bronze” (a warm dark gray) painted plastic. It still needs a center (using 2” hole plug- horn to be made a button on the dash later) & a planned TOYOTA on the right side.


I’m making a couple centers that are more appropriate:
-a garnet T3q with tan letters
- black ribbed ring, with the 3 stripe TOYOTA
-tan circle, with the classic triangle T (in garnet)

My goal is to make it look “stock,” when it isn’t.

 

10:30pm Craigslist run.
Finally copped a good seat for my racing sim build.
Brand new. $80. That's not a rip, it's the Velcro for the center padding.

 

Glad we got to meet up. It’s not a trip until something breaks!

 

Hope everyone is doing well. I'm currently at home in TN attempting to Turkey hunt. It was 35 degrees, windy, and wet this morning. Not the spring season I'm used to! On the other hand, I'll be posting a bed rack and a used set of km2's for sale soon if anyone is interested.

 

Went camping this weekend and ended up miserable but this is how the truck is sitting now with some new mods
