Well, everyone looks at me funny when I talk to myself..... they wonder if I've lost it..... again. Of course, they look at me funny when I pick up a 4' breaker bar, too... .



WOW!! Look at those exhaust pipes!!! Do you think he's compensating for something?!?!? Or he really just doesn't like to listen to the wife in the shop... ... :-laf



Seriously, what the heck are you gonna do with that!?!??! Make yourself deaf?!? World's fastest garden tiller?!? Trying to impress the redhead down the street?!?



And I've been busy in my shop, too!! There's not a single truck in my shop at the moment, thank you very much!!!Oo.



But I gotta get a transmission put in one, a rearend in another, a VP44 on another, and then find the midget with the hammer in this '01..... and maybe fix a lifter cover leak if I have time.....

 

[Nyoest]

He is alive!



Well I thought the pipe on my buddies farm king was a bit silly so when I took that pic I just set those on there to get a rise out of him. They were just laying around.



These are part of our march man round up in springtown. Fun to build using scraps and the trash talk is priceless!!!! There will be a showdown between three machines until the ultimate "go devil" is crowned. There is a thread covering all this in the "other" forum.



It's not like we went all out or anything. I only have two engines for mine. One stock Briggs 5 horse and one with billet rod, cam and full out carb. Sposed to run 10k no problem, I guess well find out. . (I really like to win )

 

[RSchwarzli]

Nice! Will have to scoot over there to see the pics!! Sounds like one hell of a contest! Brilliant I might even say!

HH

Congrats! That is a great feeling when the shop is empty of things needing repair or restoring. A feeling I am hoping to experience at some point!

 

[HHhuntitall]

Errrr, ah, thanks..... not sure that's the case, though. I just pulled everything out to make room for the next 40 projects. The '85 should go to paint in the next month, though..... you'd better hurry up!! I'm gonna finish my 6yr project before you do!!

 

[RSchwarzli]

Oh. Well, all how you look at an empty shop!



Yeah well, my 6 year project is already at 7 so to you!

 

[Excessive Force]

Haven't been on the 1st gen forum for a while... . It seems like a lot of members have left/not renewed their membership. . ???Just an observation

 

[RSchwarzli]

Yes... . there have been many that have sold their trucks, moved on, or did not renew.





Nice to see you back here though!

 

[HHhuntitall]

So many of the trucks are getting parted out to keep us running..... and so many are sitting, sadly, in the corners of yards, fields, and scarily, wrecking yards!!! I'm trying to save all I can, when I can find them in time!! The little 2x4s are still somewhat findable, but the 4x4s are rare beasts, these days. Gotta go look at one down the road and two at a friend's place later in the month... . Hopefully, there'll be something usable I can come home with. I really need to get rid of these two '98s I've got first, though. I like 'em, but the electronic pumps and computer are getting old, and I need to be shed of 'em before a good lightning storm comes through... ...

 

[RSchwarzli]

The videos are up! Oo.

Was a 'possum there at the 1:56 mark?!~? Nice hat, dude... . :-laf :-laf :-laf



Ah!! And again at the 4:40 mark!! STILL SMILING, SAME HAT!!!!!



AHHHHH!!! AND AGAIN!!! Wait... ... (uhhh, what's with the shorts?..... )

 

[RSchwarzli]

Lol. Was a ****ty interview. I don't interview well. I get too excited and my mouth flaps too fast! :-laf

What's wrong with the hat? Very stylish.

And the shorts. It was hot out. Duh!

 

[HHhuntitall]

OH, I forget, 70* is hot out to you people with diesel for blood..... I'm more like 85w-140... gotta be when it's 110* in the shade!!

 

[RSchwarzli]

Smart butt.



And it was like 90 out..... plus humidity!

 

[HHhuntitall]

Do you pack light, do ya? :-laf A little diesel, some shades, my hat..... oh, better grab an extra pair of shorts, I'm gonna be gone for two weeks!!



I understand the excitement when on TV. Last time a crew tried to video me, they had dogs, guns, pitchforks, and torches..... kinda scary!! Luckily, they didn't have a helicopter!!! OH, other than that grainy footage at the lumber mill. That doesn't count, as I didn't know they were filming!!



Oh, and before I get you too upset, thanks for the links. That's pretty neat..... now you really got me wanting to go.....

 

[RSchwarzli]

16 months and counting HH..... Almost there.

 

[RSchwarzli]

Speak truth and wear loud shorts.....



... . and something about meeting people who drive diesels... ..... Do they wear shorts like that, too?



Of course, I guess I can't blame you. If I lived in Ontario, I'd wear shorts every chance I could, too... ... but it just don't seem right when there's a frost... ... I don't know... .

Yes, all Canadian diesel owners wear shorts. Or they should. Sray I am sure has a set too. If he would say something... must have burnt out his key board a few months ago... LOL



And I cant help it is 30 F feels warm to me... . LOL

Last I had talked to him, his new job was keeping him hopping..... and I think he does most of his TDR conversations from his I-phone..... I'm betting he's in hibernation, now, though. He put on his shorts, laid down, and the cold's kept him asleep for the last few weeks... ...

And I cant help it is 30 F feels warm to me... . LOL

... . I feel for ya' there..... It was 45*F here today for the high..... and the 80% humidity and wind blowing 30mph made it suck!!! #@$%!
