    I did save a Chrysler slant six years ago by removing the head, soaking the cylinders and tapping on pistons real carefully I was able to free it up and use it. I was wondering if gaskets were available for anything that Old best of luck with it… bob

    Welcome aboard bud. Great choice have a ball with it. Oh, I got it. Oil change and filter always a good idea. To change the oil in the rear end and the transmission depends on how long has it been in there? If you’re really ambitious valve adjustment but if it’s running good, it’s really not necessary. but it is part of maintenance. I’ve had mine 30 years and still haven’t done it yet. I’m sure it needs it Good luck, Bob.

    Glad this is my last winter had to run 120 miles on tire chains yesterday chained up three times ran out of hours had to get a two hour extension and with that I just barely made it in uuuuurrrrhhhh!!!!. Good thing I took the F150 instead of the Mustang, 7 inches of snow at my house although I do carry chains in the car, I’ve had to chain it twice to get home…… bob

    I have never heard of this since I don’t see many wood stoves these days but a buddy of mine had one with the blower on it you had to turn it down it would get too hot in there very impressive … bob

    Yes, I was kind of curious about that because I have one Theo was just going to have shortened, but I just decided to reroute the exhaust around it instead because I figured it would probably be at least three or 400 for that price of just another tank. Thanks for that….bob

    Man that’s a lot of work I would’ve just had somebody do it but then again ca ching ca Ching if you’re not doing something like that yourself if it’s just rust, I would put sandpaper on the end of a stick With any kind of light oil good luck… bob

    When I was in Cortland , I was thinking of myself. The place is absolutely gorgeous and full of green and that probably means I wouldn’t want anything to do with that area in the winter. i’m sure that’s all it does is snow there

    Gotcha it’s still pretty good size it’s a lot more than some of us have but of course we could all use a little bit more storage but if I could have it all, I’d have a lot more land, bigger garage and somewhere where it doesn’t see winter…. Come-on???????

    We had a brand new propane heater put in a few years ago to replace the old one that was wore out ,,, but we both prefer running the pellet stove as you mentioned the wood heat seems more comfortable ,,,, I thought that was my truck at a quick glance oooooooooooooooohhh by the way thanks for that …. Bob
