Good Morning CGs!

I was pretty busy around the house yesterday. I had my FIL's car to do a brake change on. All new rotors and pads. Of course the bolts and rotors didn't want to give up without a fight. Lots of PB blaster and surprisingly little swearing. A lot of work with a wire wheel cleaning up the components. 5 hours later it was done

I did front pads a few years ago, those were about 40%. Rear pads looked original to the car, 66k, and wearing into the backing plate. While under the car I also discovered a huge hole in the floorboard (common to 2002-2006 Altimas apparently), he needs a new serpentine belt, and a new muffler. As much as some states complain about vehicle inspections, I think there is some merit to it. All of these problems could have been handled with preventative maintenance.

I'll tackle the other problems later.

Hope everyone has a great day!

Matthew

Howdy!

Whiskey. Tango. Foxtrot.

Hidey-ho! Got to sleep in a bit, will be headed to a golf course in Wisconsin in a little while to do some excavating, one divot at a time. Looks like it will be a beautiful day out there.

Enjoy your Friday, Gurus!

Have a good round Brad......try to use all the clubs in your bag today....all 4 of them.......

Got Tom coming in later and I'm hoping they have the road somewhat open so he can drive on pavement to the house.......I better get out there and move those guys along.......Hey! hurry up we got Corvettes coming.......WTH is going on here?

Anyone doing anything special this weekend? Not us, we will be working around the place catching up on work. Uwoman will be done with school after today...then we better just get out of her way........

Lock and load girls and boys, the weekend cometh......

Though day scheduled.

10 a.m. - hit the music studio, play some Yes, Kansas, Hank J., Stevie Nicks, Areosmith, REO

Show Gary how to put a powerwindow gear in a 66 Corvette while watching Indy Carb Day.

Put his racecar on the scales and balance the corner weights.

And doing that all in the same building.

Then, I'm gonna DNBFS.

Sort of an HCF Jr.

SORTA SUNNY IN THE NATIONS AT THE MOMENT, RAIN MOVING IN FROM THE EAST. THIS MONSOON IS TOTALLY TIRESOME.

THE ARKIES WILL DESCEND UPON US TOMORROW. AND OF COURSE IT WILL RAIN. GOOD THING THEY'RE OLD ENOUGH NOW NOT TO RUN SCREAMING THRU THE HOUSE.

I still like to run screaming thru the house......

CLOUDY ALL DAY, BUT JUST ENOUGH RAIN TO MAKE A MESS. IF WE GET AS LUCKY TOMORROW IT MIGHT DRY OUT ENOUGH TO MOW. DID I SAY LUCKY? LET ME REPHRASE THAT---

DARLING WIFE OUTDID HERSELF WITH EXOTIC GOURMET CUISINE FOR SUPPER: PINTO BEANS WITH HAM AND CORNBREAD. YUMMMMM!

Well, I'm back from huskermans place. Uwoman set me up with some work. So we'll be back up there at some time in the near future.

A clean Corvette and a dirty orange one in Marcus' garage 😍

That color hides the dirt well also.......that color with the two tone interior is one of my all time favorites......and the car makes some great sound as it moves up through the gears.....very nice Tee!

Good to see you today and Uwoman is very happy to have you working on the project. I think she has other ideas for future projects also.......yikes!

Lookin good.

I found this random picture on the internet. I don't know whose garage it is, but there's no way I could have OSB on the ceiling and tongue and groove pine on the walls. Just clashes. That guy should do something about that. I'd tell him that if I ever found out who he was....

I know who he is......he's tighter than bark on a tree......got the 2nd dollar he ever made.....he's so tight he won't even tip his hat.......his wife on the other hand can spend..........nevermind.........
