So I figured I would give Betty her own thread. When the transmission in the Blazer went out I had to have a truck. I was having lots of problems getting in and out of the tiny S10 anyhow. So I searched around on CL and found a 1990 Chevy C1500 305 5 speed. They price was right so I brought...- TheWarBeast

Truck was stolen last night
She doesn't look at big, but she is a solid chunk of muscle. Awesome to have a dog that could inflict some serious damage, but is so gentle that the 4 year old leads her around the house.- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
Hell we don't even lock it and it doesn't take a key. No one would ever steal it. I have a feeling that when it dies it will be like the scene at the end of the Blues Brother when the old Dodge just disentigrates. And I solved the nothing to drive problem. 1990 Chevy C1500 305 5 speed. Needs...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
My wife calls her Christine. Damn thing just won't die. IT has been run out of oil twice, overheated till it shut off once. Not a straight body panel on it. Nothing in the interior matches. NO door panel on the drivers door because we just haven't looked for one yet. But the little bassturd...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
Well I now have 4 non running trucks in the infirmary. Spooky (which needs to be finished), a 95 Suburban that needs head gaskets, a 94 S10 Blazer whose transmission shit the bed (again) and my neighbors 98 S10 that blew a rear main seal yesterday while I was driving to pickup Heath from his...- TheWarBeast

Truck was stolen last night
I have a 90 pound boxer/pit mix. For some reason no one will steal my stuff. Only one idiot neighbor will come on my property, and he only comes on when he knows she is in the hose.- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
Can't do anything (including drive :( ) till teh doc appt on the 7th IF he releases me. I stepped in a hole in the yard yesterday and thought I was going to wind up in the ER. It was unpleasant. I am off all pain meds and muscle relaxers - which I couldn't take during the day anyhow because...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
I was in a bad wreck back in 2000. Had back problems ever since. Every doctor I have gone too just said I was too young to hurt that bad and blew me off. I had a doc ( I called hot doc she was awesome) who was at the point of scheduling me for an MRI, but she went into early labor and then...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
I had my surgery on Aug 15th. All the doc will let me do now is walk around the yard. So now I walk past Spooky over an over while walking my mile. It just looks at me as if to say," What the heck man, FIX ME." I want to work on it so bad I cant' stand it. Don't want to undo the surgery and...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
After being diagnosed with 3 herniated discs i have been taking it easy. I couldn't stand it any more so I had to do somethin to Spooky. I decided that Spooky had sat long enough. So I hooked her to the WheelHorse and dragged her as far as it would. I have got to get some weight in the back of...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
Heath has the spirit. He spent the morning working on his truck. My buddy who has his own machine shop made me a TV cable stud. He said he made it long so I could shorten it. Stuck it on an old TBI. It definitely needed to be shortened. A little quality time on the bench grinder and all...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
Things are moving slowly, but moving. Steph started doing her unpaid student teaching so I am at home with Heath 5 days a week. It is about impossible to get anything done while trying to watch him. If he thinks he isn't being watched he puts those little legs to good use. Some tiny...- TheWarBeast

Fuzzy pics. I was tired and didn't realize they were bad. Looked in the shop and found a brand new AC compressor I bought for another truck. Put it on. Then flipped her over and installed the oil pan. Turned it over and slapped on a few more things. No work on it today. I have to attend...- TheWarBeast

Spooky. My super slow truck build
Moving day. I hooked the mobile crane to the Falcon and moved the bad engine out. I have taken all the parts off of it that I am going to. Then I moved Spooky (LOL) over to the middle where it is easier to work on. Less clutter in the tent now. I got a little more done last night. It...- TheWarBeast
