  2. Working on the DM yesterday canister type sock oil filter got to thinking what is the last time I worked on one like this on a car back around 1975 I took a 327 out of a 65 impala rebuilt it and put it in a 55 Belair. I think that engine had the canister type anyone remember???

  4. I have a pretty good size workshop I used to use before I put up my garage now it’s mostly storage problem is I got too much shit in there I’m not going to use so I’ll be getting rid of some things in there tidy up to make room for more shit Not going to use ha ha yes you could be a redneck. If you keep too much stuff you’re not going to use these days I go in there and find shit that I forgot I had brand new truck ceiling fan and a box. I did not even know I had. I’m going to put it in the DM. Bob

  12. Yes and im afraid i forgot the fact that rushing does not help at all I should have been a little more patient
  13. Yes, I remember that old trick from the old craftsmans when I was a kid watching them , they would always use oil in fixing I’m doing the same thing I make my second attempt at that plate. I think I can punch the old drills out from my back right now I’m just changing the oil ,,filter, filter in lines. started pulling them apart. Yesterday did not finish. I’ll get out there today. Pull out the filter taking out the lines tomorrow. I’ll stop at Freightliner and see if I can get the replacement parts sock filter. New lines just woke up still drinking or I should say, just started drinking coffee, wound up buying a bunch of oddball wrenches at a swap meet around 25 years ago bunch of hand wrenches were like 10 bucks. Turns out one of them has been toolbox. All this time actually fit one of the flanges like man are usually don’t get that lucky to have an open and that actually fits, once you get over 1 inch I usually don’t have one
  14. Do you know the old story goes Joey you don’t work you don’t eat ha ha get a clue
  15. Never heard of them over here Paul, what I am buying a drillbit I generally go by the appearance already started the oil change process, drained the canister and remove the oil lines. I will get new parts Monday night and continue. Thanks for your input.

  17. Speaking of turn signals, my brand new Peterbilt has a sound effects built into the dashboard so you don’t keep leaving them on if I ever see it again it’s still in the shop for the fourth time
  18. True story my ex mother-in-law used to drive one down in Los Angeles in the 80s
  19. But then, again, you’re not gonna be able to put anything big on it with side rails
  20. I would do steel side rails otherwise you’re going to overboard the boards ha ha if that makes any sense
  21. If you absolutely have to do more to it, I would put side rails on. I think that would dress it up….bob
  22. Lucky you I’m trying to put my winter guard lawn fertilizer on weather hasn’t been worth a shit I have to wait till Thursday so it’s not freezing and put the shit down in the dark … boards look amazing thanks for that

    We have an entire line board full of them over here. These kids will get away with anything they could possibly pull off. If they don’t think they’re gonna get in trouble for not dealing their job pass it off to the next guy basically work, ethics in general have gone out the door. My company has got some of the laziest people I’ve ever seen as a result as usual somebody else has to cover what they did not do.

    Not too much of a comment here but yes, I have noticed that for a lot of years even back when I was in lots of folks, choose to do as little as possible, and take full advantage of the fact I can do absolutely nothing, and cannot be fired probably even worse these days my philosophy if you don’t want to work, there’s the door it’s a simple as that
