  1. well i was planning on going into the garage a while,,,,but cant seem to move off the sofa...
  2. that sucks....even back then 5Gs was a pretty good price for all that,,,reminds me years ago i saw an ad back in LA,,,guy was selling 3 harley metermaid trikes...1200 bucks,of coarse i called him immediately he said he sold them before the add even came out.lol. i would have been tickled to death to get one for that price...bob
  3. great deal...i didnt think you would have much trouble..bob
  4. wow bored to death,was just checking out 64 galaxys just a few months ago,they were a fortune for a running beater.now they haved dropped bigtime can get them now all restored for around 24Gs...thats more like it..bob
  5. Took me a while to find one… Bob
  6. definately point adjustment of a bad set will both effect the performance...bob
  7. im thinking possibly carb adjustment i have an old mack engine manual..in a little while ill walk out and see if it includes gas jobs..bob
  8. ya all i get is UPS messages from time to time,saying they were unable to deliver....i just delete them....especially when im not expecting anything...bob
  9. again barry thanks for trying to clean it up...bob
  10. ya i thought of that...atleast leave the pavement at some point....last thing guy did was probably lock the brakes...bob
  11. oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo my,,,, you have got way too much to do.better leave now.....other than the mack everything else is just small engine projects,,,,,that 79 would fit nicely at my place....bob
  12. its only a bearing and a seal....most anyone will rebuild it good luck...bob
  13. haha i did notice a bunch of rattle cans right where he was welding i even pointed that out to the wife it might have been optical allusion photo,,,he probably wasnt anywhere near them..bob
  14. i thought of that but ill be 68 and a half.........thats it....i may stick around and do some loading and yard hostling part time...depending on how my health and ambition holds up.....id rather just leave altogether and jump on that mack and all the other shit i have around here...bob
  15. Right now I’m just enjoying ME TV more coffee and a pellet stove
  16. Yes, that sucks that’s what I’m starting to wonder I was going to split at 66 1/2 but I decided to stick around a little while longer to be in a little better financial position like you said you never now and I also really don’t want to drop dead while I’m still working … but then again, I’m thinking once you cross over the other side, you might be thinking what the hell was like trying to hang onto so hard in the old life my run got canceled this morning on account of too much snow so I’ve got almost nothing to do today but get on here couple of hours. I’m gonna go see if I can mess around in the garage a little bit at least add some more hooks to my pegboard…. Bob
  17. Yes, I was thinking the same thing. Probably some jack ass that doesn’t look at anything.Bob
  18. Man, that’s some shitty luck specially, that poor guy mowing the grass who would think that a thing is going to happen to you… since I’m only gonna be out there till next October I often think of stuff like that buying the farm right before I get ready to leave… that would suck big balls Bob
  19. I feel a lot safer running no storms in the big rig get real nervous in a car
  20. My wife does all the driving when I’m off duty I can ride shotgun for hours and backseat drive from there over????bob
  21. Not sure what happened with champion they were a big name when I was a young guy as well as AC … Bob
  22. I was just sitting here thinking if not for working with a lot of old Briggs & Stratton engines it would’ve been 23 years since I’ve adjusted a set of points instead, I just worked with them last summer on a minibike.., amazing how time flies kind of scary… Bob
  23. And Barry if you get this thanks for noticing that just goes to show you some people have way too much free time… Bob
  24. Thanks for your input Brocky..: bob
