Hello, is anybody out there?

[7mopar]

[frankie]

I'm here...

 

[paul massaro]

@paul massaro Paul when you posted about the Rambler you said you may build it for your wife? With you large stash of cars/trucks and parts I was assuming you weren't married, she must be a good one. My wife will be understanding about a small stash of cars/trucks and parts, but she would loose her mind if I had a stash like yours

My wife lost her mind 3 years ago....what little of it she had. The divorce was final in June of 2018 which ended 33 years of being chained to a ball. BYE!!

 

[paul massaro]

well she thinks i'm nuts as well . but when i sell one for more than i paid for all she doesn't look at me the same , now i'm a genius . well its all in the eyes of the beholder . i just sold the body n frame from the 73 w200 clubcab . i just wanted the eng/trans drives and transfer case . now this guy is taking them out for me and paying for the truck as well . more paid for parts i live it . wife does to . of course i have not told her about the 65 ply bel rag i bought yet . its a surprise although for her driver . i need to go get it in the near future . well after this deal is done with this virus .

That pesky virus thing appears to be sticking around way to long. We don't get out much. But when we do I think we should stay home more.
For some reason must women think we are naturally crazy. Mine makes quilts. What's crazier than cutting up perfectly ok material into small pieces just to sew it back together.

hey guys n gals , i just got done building a tool for my yard full of trucks . i've been selling them off one'z two'z at a time . but my efforts a hard n long pulls . so i built a witch on a stinger for a receiver type hitch . its f.......n heavy duty , 10k lbs 3/8 wire rope on a 8 '' 1/4 thick 1/2 web channel and 1 1/2 x 1/2 bar stock for the stringer and roller mounts . its all mig welded around and three plug welds under the winch spool to the stringer and one plug weld through the end flange of the channel as well . just another junk build . what do you think ?

 

[7mopar]

Looks pretty heavy duty. I only have a 2000 lb for pulling rolling stock around and the garden tractor out when it gets stuck.

 

[paul massaro]

i need something that will drag a f600 or dump truck out of the way or just one that been sitting for a decade in one spot . this will travel around from one vehicle to another . it just needs a cart to haul it , lol .

A cart and floor jack to put it in place

 

[paul massaro]

yes its heavy , maybe a wagon , i've got a few . but once located it will stay there . and it can be relocated easier then a whole vehicle could . i'll shot some pics in use soon .

 

[7mopar]

That is quite a collection of wagons.

 

[paul massaro]

yes , we've built these so far , my candy orange one gets lots of fans wanting pics , my buds candy red one won a few car shows . just pitt racers .

 

[7mopar]

Got one sitting here but I don't think I could get away with doing anything like that to it.

 

[paul massaro]

just some go kart stuff a lawn mover engine , a few bucks , wal la , lol . mine was a 60 day wonder . from front axle to paint , and a week of test to break it and redesign before the candy job . note the foot rests changed from motor cycle pegs to the zoomy look , there fold up just like the peds did , mine also has torsion bar suspension on the front . my buds red one is a hard tall , just looks like coil overs .

 

[paul massaro]

hey portable winch is now mobile and enough room for its 12v dc power pack , lol . of course this is just transportation to the work site .

 

[7mopar]

Looks like a good mobile place to store it when not in use. Can you get it into the wagon by yourself or does it require some assistance?

 

[paul massaro]

just me . its not a light unit although . but now its got wheels under it .

 

[paul massaro]

hey guys n gals , i just scored a early chrysler hemi thats all tricked out for my salt project , this will replace the desoto hemi i was going to run , simply going with the same parts that i'm using on another chrysler for other class , this new lower end is 286 ci , destroked to 3'' n down sleeved bore to 3.91'' for a heavy duty xo class engine that can shear parts with my xxo class 371 ci chrysler hemi . also bought the crower bullet crank for my donova 417 block . and the trick'st race alum 7571 rods i've seen in a long time , this is like christmas and the presents are all mine , lol !

Nothing Really. Take my advice and never work rotating shifts! It takes YEARS off your life while you miss out on everything that REAL people are doing, like sleeping at night. This leaves me not cognizant of what is happening in the world much of the time. I was wondering if anyone out there recognized the opening line of my post; that being from the old (Firesign Theater) album entitled "Don't Crush That Dwarf, Hand Me The Pliers"! The non compos mentis was from an old Bugs Bunny cartoon. These and other amusing stories flow through my head hoping to find meaning in the Twilight Zone that is my life! LOL

Can I have some of whatever you're smokin?
