Cold and rainy here today.
Got the bike out the last few days since it was in the 70s and staying warmer after dark.





I picked up leaves last night when I got home from riding the bike.
It started raining around 3 am so I called it quits.
Managed to get 10 bags and the yard waste bin filled
Can't even tell I picked any up last night, so many fell with the rain this morning.





And supposedly the Mustang is getting dropped off @ noon tomorrow.

We sold my Buddy's 78 F250 to a guy in TX. Damn shipping company was supposed to pick it up 3 hours ago. They won't answer the phone either.

Going to gas up the F150 tonight... I need to pick up some steel in tomorrow or Friday.

I don't remember if you said, Did you use the Zinc Phosphate primer for the exhaust like you did with your calipers?

Ceramic 2000 degree for the Y pipe, - over kill for that series of stainless. Didn't realize what they were made of until I needed to welded on them. Already purchased/ ceramic'ed them anyways, see if the stuff would hold up...

Amazon Amazon


Rust - Oleum 500 degree primer for the TP. Just primer no top coat. TP is made of aluminized steel.

Amazon Amazon


EDIT: Oh i'll be axing that tip off in the future...didn't realize how pimped a 4" tip looked. Man that big can looks horrible sticking out the side of that rusty truck. What was I thinking....
