Did some measurements for the plowshare kids today then decided to check the dataplate because I was sure it had the width on there. Might be hard to see in the pick but they claim the front axle...FA, to the outside of the rubber is 82 1/2''. The rear axle RA is 78". Trying to fit power...

White Scout I had the pleasure to escort this Scout to the Vimy Memorial a few years ago. There is nothing like having WW11 armour among the displays so we wish you all the best to get that unit rolling again. This one is the 1943 M3A1 with the 5th Canadian Armoured Division, 1st Canadian Corps...

G749 Restoration Out of a scene from Close Encounters of the Third Kind, the glowing ambiance of an active garage is pushing Goat hard to the finish line. We'll get some before and after shots up in the next month but the pieces are coming together. This week was the 50 hour hood. They...

Personell Protection Equipment With our current influx of new, distracted drivers, I should be wearing a helmet.

That's what happens when Another Ahab shows me how to copy/paste a picture into photoshop. Took me 10 minutes to copy/paste parts of the truck into the pic. Fixed the roof!

I found it....page 318. It holds a clamp/rubber/grommet/thingy that the wires run through. It's not a ground. I also used my new skill to draw some arrows. You mean these gaps? Hope the picture gets bigger after I hit Submit....if not...move closer. We certainly have something going on with...

I stayed up late and got mine done.

I went to a self leveling bar once. I had a good wingman so I made it home ok. I've also been studying rear ends and the word trunnion keeps popping up. Have you finalized what you're using for suspension? Started looking at Monster trucks and the 4 link or multi-link set-ups that allow a ton...

9 seconds to rollover. This incident starts at 53 seconds when the intelligent young chap takes his eyes off the road. 9 seconds later it's already too late to fix the drift over the edge of the pavement. 9 seconds to dead. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O-MKsXS--yA

Thanks for the kind words. I'm going to follow that up for you. It looks like the same train on this page out of the Alberta Rail Museum but I'll ask my CN contact. http://www.albertarailwaymuseum.com/special-interest-equipment.html I might get a chance to beat a few soldier's feet out of that...

M35 find Facebook Schpeculation says it could possibly be, without any definitive proof, an Eastern Canadian truck. I've had mine in the trails a wee bit and it was more like two hours at the Gym. I could see how a shorter truck would be fun so I'm glad there are guys with mad skills doing it...

Don't get any water on the G749. They tend to shrink! We can't exactly blame the bobber gurus for the difficult to find G749. Not many of these around. Is it because they just don't look right?

It was real sweet having my little niece the nurse text me this link tonight of the B-52 on a low/fast pass....enjoy. http://worldwarwings.com/this-b-52-fast-and-low-will-send-chills-down-your-spine?a=mk&var=ww2=b52-buzzzz

How many deuces can you park in front of a pink house? 2 Found a source in Illinois for the Redhorse Performance fuel filters. I suggested an $8.00 clear filter but was reminded that it's a brand new fuel tank and motor so nothing but the best for Goat...

G749 muffler Took the big drive from the 5th meridian into Edmonton today and Goose was a rocket ship. It was so fast I was actually slowed down by a suburban most of the way in. Hit the 58mph mark and lifted the foot with only about 50% throttle input. I know we had a tail-wind but it seems...

G749 Canada Day Weekend It's been a long few weeks since Goose and I got together. We had our Canada celebrations this weekend and it was great to have the fire bans off and burn some time with the family. SuperDave was a big help digging some exhaust donuts out of his garden to get Goose on...

New G749 Muffler Finally found donuts so I could try out the new muffler. I did two videos but we just set the camera on the window frame so we'll need to get better sound bytes. Original https://youtu.be/1rodYyYn5CU New https://youtu.be/-MScILywFFE This thing is quiet. We did a couple...

With a GM tech in the crowd, you're more likely to be helping us then us helping you. It's always good to hear a guy say those words...."Repairs on this girl are simple". Reasonably priced 'perishables' are a challenge for most of us. Spark-plugs, Spark plug wires, repair kits for the airpak...

A congratulations is in order then and a toast to the new Certification. :beer: That's a real lucky M37 to find you and the school. Perfect working conditions, all the safety...less of the dust?....all the right tools and Henderson on the hammer! My son did his first year/ 2 months in class...
