Who's thrashing for the Pileup???

I've been trying to toughen up my liver for several weeks now

 

Spent ALL day at the drags, still managed to get the ball joints and bushing in the A-arms...

 

Add one of these to the rear of your '58-'64 Chebbie.

 

The Falcon's nowhere near ready.

Triumph's in a million pieces again.

I'll probably wash the truck.

 

So my car has a problem coming home from shows, gets there with no trouble. This time coming home from the Cheaters show the trans broke. Had to use all my spare parts from 3 units to get this one rebuilt. Put it in tonight. Also installing 4 new tires.

 

Guess I'm driving the ElCamino, and Yes Cariann is coming

 

Awesome TZ. Where you staying?

 

Sounds like a lot of work is going on. Russco probably has the toughest task...

Ryno, you think the truck will make it?

 

Staying Wherever Uncle Bob (Bob K) put me. Looks like my brother in law bailed out so I might bring the Model A instead, since I drove it to my first Pileup 9yr ago.

 

i hope so
bleed the brakes last night, and hung the core support and made the radiator work, also started in on the shifter.

im confident in it making the trip, if i can finish it!

same as us. holiday inn x

 

how far is it from your place?

 

go rashy go.........

 

I'm flying into Chicago on the 4th from Spokane, Washington this year to make my third Pile-up. Wish I could of taken my Model A, but 1900+ miles is a little far in October.

 

Im going to change my HAMB handle. Ive decided to change it out of admiration for my favorite member. Old hamb name:Nick32vic New hamb name:Curious Thrash

Im a few days behind on my pileup thrash but I only have 1 or 2 small details to ****on up.

 

Need to replace the tailshaft seal in the trans and get the driveshaft balanced

 

What shocks you run on this Dubuquian?

 

About 3hr from my house to Decatur.
Looking at a Boat trailer tomorrow, hopefully I can rig it up to tow the FED

 

Me too!!

 

Yummmm-o! can't wait to see you there bud!

Been thrashing on Big Olds. Actually will be installing new rear shock mounts and new shocks. The old was in a useless location. New will ride much smoother.

See everyone there


Also, if anyone has any junk like races, bearings, gears, flathead heads, anything that would make cool yart art I'd certainly apprecaite you bringing it. I'll pay s**** prices for the stuff. Right now I'm in the process of making a garden trellis outta the round bits. Thanks in advance.

 

don't know how you'll make it past inspection though with your trailed car!!!?

 

The only exception to the trailered car rule are for race cars that are not street legal (like dragsters) WITH preapproval... and he is preapproved. I've approved a few of those already

 

Thanks Joe, I was going to swing by HRCC and show it to Kevin too, just to be sure.
That is if I get it done.

Picture this with a much cooler trailer, and a S2D motor between the rails.

 

Can't wait to see that thing in person Tyler!!!!!!! I've been drooling over it for far to long now.

 

Ill be changing the plugs on the old girl and cleaning up the car before she goes. That's about it... I will hope for the best. Last year i also blew out my trans on the way back. hahaha

 

Front end done. Oil change in the morning, then test drive...

 

beware of wheel standing mustard shots....

 

Well, i have my 5 year old thrashing. Hes helping get the interior pieces painted.


-LUKEY-

 

It's nothing like an end of the season show to get everyone to thrash on doing all the things they've put off doing all summer! Ha! Myself included.

 

Got the heater installed. About 90% sure it's gonna leak. Have a re-routing plan, just in case. Tried to replace the fuel pump, realized I spaced out on buying fuel line so put that off. Got the radio I bought for it in 2006 installed. Then found the instructions and wired it the right way. Some minor cleanup under the hood, knocked over my tackle box full of electrical connectors, Started to fix the heater switch, cut he **** out of my finger, milled around the shop until I realized I had no idea I had been milling for and decided to call it a night....
