New England B.S. Thread

Overtorqued a bolt while replacing the seat foam in my car's seat and snapped the head clean off.

Off to HF tomorrow to get a set of left handed drill bits to remove the bolt. The head snapped flush with the hole. Good excuse to pick up more cheap tools. If it doesn't work, I'll be asking for a recommendation for a shop to help me pull the bolt.

Sigh.

 

I have an extractor set you can use..

 

Thanks for the shots Fred

 

Burning the midnight oil. Hour 13. Primer is almost ready to be laid down

 

ALMOST.

I just have to say, Cam is the absolute man! He does great work and goes the extra distance to make sure I don't go home with an unfinished bumper. Very very cool!

 

that spots tight i know lol i hit twice

 

did you break yours or are you making something onto yours ?

 

Finishing it actually lol. It had unground welds and such for a while.

 

Finished it up after 16 straight hours!!!!!

Primed


Blue can of duplicolor bedliner


Now to wait for it to dry and to reinstall, then drive an hour and a half back home... I need coffee!

 

Start time: 9am Sunday morning.


End time: 2:50am Monday morning.


Oh dear God do I need a bed!

 

Glad to see you on your way buddy! Glad it came together so nicely! Now for bed... And dreams of adventures...

 

She cleaned up pretty nicely, I must say! I knew there was a gem in there, just needed some extra welding, grinding, and painting for it to look perfect, which it now does! All I have to do is add a few more coats of bedliner and make another mesh sheet for the ADE lettering and I'll be all done with this build!

Oh dream land, how I adore thee

 

One of my highlights of the day was adding the branding to my bumper lol.

 

Anytime!

 

Awesome thanks guys. If she gets it I will have to have a cookout for you guys

 

Will do.

 

Bump per Chris

 

From this weekend? Where's all the snow?
We've still pretty easily got a foot in most of the places I've been lately. Went for a stroll in the woods yesterday and I kept sinking in as deep as my crotch when I broke through.

Edit: Looking at the NE Area Wheeling thread right now. Some snow in those shots. Man, looks like fun.
We're supposed to get a huge storm up here on Wednesday, they're saying. They're not sure on totals yet, but the weather guy said this morning that if the storm tracks right it could be one for the record books.

 

Yup from this weekend. Ya I in the shade there was snow, everywhere what it was melted. We're supposed to get snow down here too, though some stations are saying a foot, some saying none.
