What a Rush

[The Horvaths]

..and, most of a roof.

Dylan is really chomping at the bit to work on Rush.
We might get a break in the weather and some time to put a bit of paint on the rear end.

I’ll use the tiny tractor to move it around. It’s really, really handy. I’m able to do things with it that I would need a lot of help with if I didn’t have the tractor.

As you know, race cars (and C bodies) aren’t our only MOPAR interests.

tractors are very handy

we moved 6 tons of scrap iron and 3 garbage dumpsters of stuff out of the shop this past July. Impossible without 'The ole 56er' (Utility 656 IH). Mom now has a little JD 1025R as well

Now if you'd adapt that spreader in the background to shred the scrap iron you could really have some fun.........

Spreader metal shredder!

I think expecting it to handle a soft turd is expecting alot in its current state...

From the Strange..

..to the downright “different!”

[The Horvaths]

Wait..

..how many “neutrals?!!”

It’s a PPP push-to-shift-up reverse valve body, clean neutral shifter with a transbrake switch. Things are really gonna start happening now..

The roadrunners are about to be out road-runned.

There are at least three roadrunners that hang around the new shop.

Do you have any coyotes to go with them

Do you have any coyotes to go with them

Yes, and bobcats. Feral hogs too..
..Oh my!

We picked up supplies to paint the rear end last night. The weather may cooperate for a couple of days. We don't have a climate-controlled paint booth, so, we have to work within our abilities.

Got paint done today. 3 coats of primer, 6 coats of farm implement yellow, my rottenweiler buddy, and some Mister Cash got the job done.

Does your Rottweiler act as it NEVER gets your attention? Mine sure does, she's getting better, next year she will be a shop dog.

And the axle looks nice!

Nah. She's just a lazy girl. However she loves getting attention and will love on anybody. One of her trademarks is sitting on my feet when she does want some attention.

 

[LocuMob]

Yeah, the feet are freat for sitting on! My do is finally getting past puppy stage. Always nice to have a pup helping you out with the cars, trucks and tractors!


So, when's test and tune?

 

[The Horvaths]

Certainly not before the stable gets a decent cleaning!

Looks like she approves of the color and the job you have done.

There are easier ways to wash a truck, but not as fun.
