    I made a firm promise to my FRIEND and there is no deviation in mind - plain and simple. Been getting stuff off the chore list for the cookout done and the list is not a pleasant one. A few have heard of some of the results of trying to rush through that list which caused more work. Been...

    Ask Deb about me getting electricuted years ago and it was not a laughing matter - I was told after a few seconds it should have killed me - there is more to what happened so just ask me at the cookout. But the wiring stays like it is. See that yellow strap - I towed that long piece home from...

    Metal came today for the back wall support lower section to frame - and enough to replace rear wheelwell to back wall both sides as well. Both running boards fabbed up as well. Too bad they can't go in yet.

    The K18 truck and K19 trailer combo was designated as the SCR-197 unit. For those standing by to keep busy here is a small portion of one of the simular units involvement: The Signal Corps detachment, two days after its arrival, had put into operation an SCR- 197 radio truck and trailer which...

    Gun mount question

    When I bought the cradle pivot block here is where I got it from. It was like $69 and came with the pins. Its not a firing mount but only a very nice heavy replica. You might have to call them as I peeked this morning and did not see it right away - but this is where I got her's from...

    Difference between an man and a woman so you youngins know. A man will just flat kill you and put you out of your misery. Now a woman will make the pain and agony last as long as possible till you give up the ghost. If you last a whole year or long under pain - that is what she will do just to...

    Zout's Cookout

    PB - the M909 is fair game if Tony or Troy wish to participate in the convoy and it is still on the list - their call and I would be honored to have them show it (on a bill of sale of course for now) Deb made a fantastic documentary book of the Draft - Bill and signing of the legislation and...

    After 10 minutes of pressure washing the back porch - and watching Swiss pick up some metal I had for he Boy Scouts collection - and Deb bossing me around I had the twitches just to start heading back down to the K 18 again. I think I can blame PB on that but whether he'll be responsible is a...

    No filler and very slight dents up there the only filler that is found is where the seam is overlapped and rivieted - other than that the other two with the stripping had nothing in them. I use a 3m Seam Sealer which was an OEM product for cars and trucks and costs roughly $50 a quart. Smells...
