I'd be lost without my hand truck.

About 2 weeks ago, guy at work had a little episode at the Ford dealer. They somehow effed up his battery, so he had to go buy a new one. The dealer called him a couple days later, and they offered to give him a brand new Motorcraft battery. So, he asked me if I'd want his battery for 50 bucks.... LOL "sure".

I had to do that on a 4.6 NorthStar engine in a caddy.
Simple head gasket job, and all the head bolts pulled the treads out of the block.

Wanna talk about a WTF moment. lol

Had to buy this special tool, lost our *** on the job.

He showed me the receipt... 149.99 is what he paid. It's a 3 year.... I'll throw 'er on the maintainer along with my other two Group 65's (for the Fox Body's).

EDIT: This is the one. The 149.99 was with tax. Looks like a Johnson Controls.

Who enters a chili cook-off but has never made chili.....
Yep.... guilty. lol

So far, I have the meat thawing out, and it will be tomato based with beans.
Any good ideas for a medal wining chili ?
