Re: I think i've got it now !!!
Any tool / nut or bolt dropped while working on a vehicle will be found exactly in the center of said vehicle
This being true if part/tool makes it to the ground. Nothing worse than dropping part/tool and having it not make it to the ground...... Can I get a AMEN brother???? |

Don't forget, lifting an engine by a carburetor base plate on an aluminum intake is fine and will never come loose.

Re: I think i've got it now !!!
13: Sonny there is nothing wrong with this pickup, it runs like new. It has new muffler bearings installed with a left handed monkey wrench, a fresh quart of compression, sky hook suspension, and don't worry about about the short boards in the bed, a board stretcher will fix those!
