Re: My 1969 Datsun 521 kingcab diesel

It has been a while since I posted to this thread, I drove around this morning and ran it out of diesel(insert pace palm here), I do not recall even looking at the gauge today, I do recall it was getting near time to fill it up, but this is after the fact. I had to walk home which is not my first ch...

Re: Gray Man, Inc.

Same with me, I rode motorcycles from 1973ish thru 1986ish, pretty much year round after 1976, I once rode a 4 wheel ATV and did not like it, and I heard a lot of stories about the 3-wheel versions.

Until recently I always searched "Trike" on craigslist, just dreaming.

Re: Gray Man, Inc.

I know a guy that made a living for a while moving new vehicles around behind a Dodge/Cummings on a 3-vehicle trailer, that was a while ago though.

Re: Gray Man, Inc.

I do not know much about the truck except a question I asked my friends that owned one in the 1990s, I asked about mileage(they owned 4wd), I did drive one of their trucks and I did not notice anything unusual at that time, the speed it went depended on where the pedal was, I do not recall it doing ...

Re: Gray Man, Inc.

Thoughts on your boost, I have seen up to 20psi and it did not pull any harder than at 7psi, the more boost the faster it will likely wear your engine out, but that is my opinion. When I first installed the turbocharger my tailpipe did not blow as much black smoke as it does now, but I will admit th...

Re: Around Waynos house

I did all my measuring and somehow it was wrong, and I was not paying attention and got it halfway installed before I realized it was not low enough, so I had to remove it again and start over, but the hard part was already done(cutting the wood away on the bottom), the door is now about a 1/16" abo...

Re: Around Waynos house

I have the folding portable style. I haven't ever used them though. I bought them to use with a solar generator. Well I am thinking about solar panels now also. I also looked at my rear sliding glass door this afternoon, I might deal with that before starting on the front windows, it is starting to...

Re: Around Waynos house

Do any of you guys here have solar panels of any type? I finally got my coffee table train working good, I bought another locomotive, the same day one of my small locomotives burnt up, so what I planned with them 2 small black locomotives I run in tandem is not likely going to be, I will think about...

Re: Around Waynos house

I did not know one could remove the inner boards as one piece, I figured they would need to be removed one piece at a time, and if I do need to remove them I am considering getting a planer and taking the white paint off, the former owner painted half the trim in the house white, what a stupid idea,...

Re: Around Waynos house

The only thing I wonder about is the offset of the windows, when installing the new ones I am unsure if I will have to remove/cut the inside boards all around, I do not think there will be a gap looking at them. My sliding glass door in the back slipped into position easily with zero gap, but in hin...

Re: Around Waynos house

I put in a patio(back of house) sliding glass door last month? and that was freaking heavy, I took the sliding part out before installing just so I could actually maneuver it around, I almost lost it once(fall over) but I saved it, I did lose one of the sections of the old door that I took out, but ...

Re: Around Waynos house

Here are my new windows for the living room, I will likely replace all the others also, but I do not want to try and replace them all at once.

Re: Gray Man, Inc.

Impulse buy, it must have been cheap. I have friends that had the 4wd versions although yours might be 4wd also, one was lucky enough to get 23mpg, but the other one for some reason had trail type gears put into the differentials, which in my opinion defeated the idea of what a transfer case is for,...

The paint isn't as bad as it looks. It's way, way worse.

Re: Around Waynos house

I picked up my 3 new front windows today to replace these windows. https://i.postimg.cc/QNFWLrFf/DSC01280.jpg I forgot to take photos of the windows as I had other places to get to, maybe photos tomorrow, I forgot to ask about screens when I ordered them, they did come with screens, they do not have...

Re: Around Waynos house

It started raining here and it is not washing the dirt off very well, I may have to pressure wash it. Since it has been raining I got the 3rd circuit working on the coffee table train, at one point I had all 3 trains running for likely 15 minutes without a wreck or derailment, that is not always the...

Re: Around Waynos house

I redid what I had done with the 4 leaf compost, it all went into the garden, I did this after going to H and H recycling and asking questions about the dirt they sell, I went with the dirt even though it had been rained on and was like sticky clumps, before loading me the guy asked if I would like ...

Re: Around Waynos house

I worked on it a little today, then it started raining, the good thing about the rain is it will wash all the dirt off the pavers, it was the same with the last 8 feet of my walkway in the garden, they were filthy when I finished but it rained and they were clean, all I had to do is wait. I needed f...

Re: Around Waynos house

So this is what I have been doing during daylight hours when it has not been raining. https://i.postimg.cc/VkRHYTBg/DSC01318.jpg https://i.postimg.cc/W41Ytn5v/DSC01319.jpg I did this today, I had to move some axles and heavy wood beam and other stuff that hide the axles. https://i.postimg.cc/85qZKVN...
