Re: 521 owner here
Okay guys and gals,
I haven't been doing anything but work. Went to Redmond a few times for the iguana and that's it.
Trucks doing great! even in this cold, i thought 10 degrees would make it run a little different... nope. Its great
I need to get/make some type of choke for in the mornings but I've been parking in the garage and that helps A LOT with starting.
Oic!
not sure where I'll put it yet. don't think i'll keep it there.
Ive been thinking about painting the valve cover a pink, maybe the block pink I don't know yet, what do you guys think?
Not a hot pink.
I thought i'd be able to do a little more work on the datto this winter, being that I work at a carwash. No way! Not only are we just about as busy as summer its 10 degrees out + wind.... ????? Am I missing something? Stupid ass job.

Re: 521 owner here
I'm not sure yet.
Pink was in my mind. But maybe I'll paint the valve cover pink and the block another color.
Pink with some green flaky bits in there. Idk.

I may be coming up on an oven...
I could powder coat it. But it seems like I'd just wanna sent it to Jrock.

Re: 521 owner here
powder coat will be expensive as hell, and i believe when i was chatting with jrock in a thread about it the thoughts were - NO, just don't. BUT you "could"

Re: 521 owner here
I didn't want to powder the block. Ha I'll paint that.
The valve cover would be expensive?
Maybe morw incentive for me to get the oven and do it here. I've got a few colors and a gun I got from Eastwood.
I'd need a new air compressor though.

Sweet!
Just need to find out what colors I want and I'll be right on that Pm.
Think I should get the front cover done too?

Re: 521 owner here
The kfx and the other quads don't get out much... it sucks.
Havent been up to much besides work. Who would have guessed a car wash would be supper busy
in the winter.. NO! I mean days where its windy and rainy all day and we still get 100+ plus cars to stop by. Idk if you all have
been to the trishities when its windy but let me tell you now there's sand everywhere!
Anywho I picked up a five speed, picked it up from a ratsun member, not sure he's on here yet but the trannys out of a 82 720 I think I recall. I plan on rolling with it for a little while tell I find a better one, one where I'd have a speedo cable. But it doesn't bother me much for now. Still have put it in. I need to see that's up with getting a tranny mount made.
Only one oic.

Who's Ford is that? Or did you just park next to the biggest truck you saw?
You forgot to mention your 92 MPH speeding ticket.

Re: 521 owner here
Yeah I was on lunch when I seen this Ford the guy who owns it watched me pull up to it and get out and take the picture.. he was watching me the whole time I think just to make sure i didn't touch his truck. I try to park next to these big guys so that when they walk out to their truck they'll see my truck and just stop to think about why their truck is so large....
Idk.. I'm odd..
Yeah speeding ticket... about 300 bucks. Plus insurance is this month so I just spent 550.. my bad.. glad I didn't get reckless driving.

I've driven your truck.
