The Official Yearly "I Hate Winter" Post

Haven't been to the garage in weeks as January has been brutally cold, at least for us. Then, to make matters worse, Mother Nature decided to give us a severe beating this week in the form of a day and a half worth of freezing rain. The photos tell the tale.

We've been without power since 4am Wednesday.

I'm ready for Spring now. *8-(

More 6.1L Hemi pictures

I have been playing around with Picasa and wanted to share the photo album I made of the the pictures I took of the 6.1L Hemi.

Hemi Rat Rod



This is one sweet Rat Rod. I found it surfing YouTube videos. When the 6 (yes 6) strombergs come to life, your hair will stand on end. Enjoy!

6.1L Hemi Head


Pictures of the 6.1L Hemi head. I am in the process of obtaining the pictures of the engine when my grandfather obtained it. Enjoy!

Week 36

No major earth shattering news this week - spent some time Saturday reorganizing the garage and moving things around to make room for the engine stand I plan to purchase before the end of the month. I would have had it already but it's sold out at my store of choice. Picked myself up a handy-dandy "service cart" instead which is already stocked with my tool boxes and air tools and the whole thing fits nicely under the workbench. When your shop is as small as mine you gotta make sure you put every inch to good use.

Still working on getting Elizabeth's right side doors off. Got all the interior door trim removed, along with the quarter glass behind the rear door. If the weather cooperates next weekend I should be able to finish up.
