Hey randy, concitering you basically tore the thing to the frame and rebuilt it this year, And don't wheel it hardly ever, sure.

On the cruiser, the stickers alone make it a contender.

Besides my new TJ here's my latest project, a 76 F250. It's getting frame up resto, custom flatbed, I'm still trying to decide how I'm going to lift it. Probably not calendar material, but here it is:

What's holding my up? Not alot, Wiring, Sensors, Plumbing the fuel lines, getting a V6 Radiator, bolting on misc parts, etc.... I'ts getting close. Matter of fact, I'll be in the garage again in about 15 minutes.


Oh yeah, I tried to stop by your place 2 nights ago, Jeremy. Nobody was home.... about 8:15-8:30pm. I was in the neighborhood..... :D

I'm still not back to work yet:mad: doctors won't release me, so the funds are are still on the slim side, is why I have not been wheelin this year.. So in the mean time I'm just finishing loose ends that should have been tied up in the first place, that and saving my pennies for some new swampers... Next year will be GAME ON, I hope:rolleyes:

to make it a short story lets just say some people need Anger Management. I pissed a guy off at work December of 2001 He hunted me down later that night and hit me over the head twice with a heavy piece of pipe, he then left me for dead until he realized what he had done... Its amazing what a brain bleed does to a guy. the doctors just don't want me screwing around with electricity with poor judgement, coordination, memory issues until I pass some neuro tests, they say brain injury's take a long time to recover. I'm lucky that I even recovered as well as I have. They say I'm years ahead of schedule.. Its been a lot of work to get where I'm at now..

I already reached maximum medical, so no on the workers comp thing, the only thing I'm getting now is a Temporary dissability settlement every month, it isn't much.. In another year is when they will determine my dissability, doesn't sound like Kennecott will give me my job back since I will never be 100% of what I was...

and driving with a head injury is a total hoot, it gives me a good excuss for doing something stupid:p

its currently waiting on new wheels and tires, I went with hummer wheels with custom backspacing, took a chance with Daniel @ USA6x6, ordered them before all the kaos on Pirate broke loose, oh well:rolleyes: tires will be 38 sx's, if they hold up to John and Shawn, they should last for me. The only other plans in the far future will be replaceing the wore out 350 with a 383 stroker, I'm piecing together..next will be getting rid of these 410 gears and going 513's
