Well... I just picked up a core T5 for 40 bucks, plus I am getting another complete T5 from Ron before he leaves (the T5 out of Frankie).

I painted the bottom box after I did the rust preventative last night. It's not an exact match, but it's pretty dang close!

It's out of an SSP (Special Service Package / Police) car. Looks like it has some OK stuff left in it.

I have been trying to find my motivation all day.
I think I gave up a couple hours ago.
Was too hot to really get anything done.
So, I didn't get anything done. lol

I would hate to be a hot tar roofer around here.
Thats how it is in Az. in the summer, by noon the outdoor workers are done for the day.

My neighbor down the street is retired and picks garbage and resells it.
I have seen her go by 3 time in the last hour with crap hanging out of the trunk of her car.

Me and the neighbor wondered if she sold drugs as much as she is in and out.
But during the day she runs out to meet people at the internet commerce parking spots at the local PD.

EDIT: You answered that already. Skidders might need to chain the wheels in that slop.
Believe it or not but there is a good bit of rock under there to a certain point. The guy dropped his front tires off the rock pad so he was having a bad time. The skidder was able to swing the trailer around so get a straight pull and pull him out.

Well crap, missed him again. Matt was at my Walmart... picking up a pretty high strung dude, LOL.

EDIT: I think I know why Robby got out and got in Deja Blue while it was still on the trailer (in tow). LMAO
