Spring is here!! Better get that thing done before summer is gone lol.

 

I see no reason to rush just because the weather is changing. Weather plays no part into my goals. Personally I Love winter.

 

Semi P-Port?

 

No no not at all.

 

Making any hay?

 

Little by little. I have been extremely busy. I've been offered a new job from Norfolk Southern Railroad. If that happens id expect to have it complete before next summer. There are a lot of things still undecided through out the build, mainly related to electronics, Rear suspension, driveshaft. It is moving along though. In the mean time I picked up a Z32 and another Black FC(not pictured). Both really clean vehicles. Picked up a Seadoo 951. Finally got my brothers car in color (thank the lord), don't have many pictures of it. More Pics to come when assembled. A friend contact me to help him out as his vehicle (Eagle Summit) is in Ohio not running and he lives in VA. The previous work was not up to par, one thing led to another and the list of half *** stuff kept on getting longer. I did as much as I could in the amount of time i had. He ended up driving it back to VA.

 

Another year has passed. I am still at it frequently. Some things have changed, alot has happend.

Custom axle seal spacers. This converts the 8.8 explorer axle seal to be any ford straight axle axle seal, standard cobra ect. I can get a seal at any parts store in america for pennies.
