Thanks for visiting

Will do!

The older ones with the Bendix hydraulic helper cylinders (exact same part as early Corvettes and Checker Cabs) are fun to work on also. Do not cross the lines on those. If you do, when you start the engine the steering wheel will violently spin back and forth, full travel. Ask me how I know.

@Blu_Grit_Garage that's interesting I don't think on GM you can reverse them. It's been a while since I changed going on a Ford. Actually it's been a long time since I change one on anything

Nice. There is a KZbin Channel called Mexican Spec that has a '73 Cream Colored LTD Wagon with a 3 on the tree & no Air. Now that is a strange combination.

@Blu_Grit_Garage watch out for that guy

I do like those Cyclones also. I like the 64 & 65 Barracudas, but not the 66's. The 67's on up to 74 are nice also.

@Blu_Grit_Garage yeah I agree I've always liked the barracudas vacuum even before people began to like them

@@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983 I still like the simplicity and torque of an old fashioned pushrod engine. Working on the multiple cams and all that timing chain phaser nonsense kind of takes the fun out it for me. Plus I am not all that great with computers and fuel injection wiring. Stick a Pertronix or Chinese GM HEI one wire style Distributor in it with a carburetor and I am happy, and have a lot more money left over.

At the end of the latest returned from the No Name Nationals video (44 minutes long) the numbers are formed to match the door. They look great. Hopefully these won't blow off like the static cling ones did on the way down.

I left for work at 7:30 am and just got home at 11:15 pm. Unfortunately no time for Halloween this year. At least I got to see your Shorts.

@Blu_Grit_Garage thank you very much that makes it worth it. We volunteered for a harvest festival 🎎 at a Church. It was a lot of fun watching little kids having so much fun and thinking back. You're definitely a hard worker. I've had a couple more KZbin shorts about halloween. I'll send them to publish around 3:00 a.m. maybe midnight. Add video of somebody activities before the kids had gotten there. But unfortunately the KZbin dog 🐕aye my recording.

It has to be Hot to Burn right? She calls her Tacoma "Taco" for short.

@@Blu_Grit_Garage Did you see my latest post?

It was quality time with Anna since she is out of town with work most of the time. She even got to ride down the strip a few times.

@Blu_Grit_Garage that actually sounds great 👍. It's amazing how fast the time goes by

Yes, sometimes you just have to get away.

Yes and having to reach to clean it off the roof is also a pain.

@@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983 Trailer Brakes too.

@@Blu_Grit_Garage I have panic brakes on a couple of my trailers. How to use a big enough truck just stop the trailer because a couple of my trailers don't even have brakes.

@@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983Winning the 2 Trophy’s was totally unexpected, especially since we are new at this.

@@Blu_Grit_Garage you know it does not surprise me that you want those two trophies. Because you are the kind of guy and I think your daughter is too that put your nose to the grindstone just keep going at it. I think that's probably a big reason why I jumped on your bandwagon early on. No nonsense and get it done. I don't know how well that sells in today's society but it sure is a hard quality to find. Something else about the trailer brakes and lights. I also carry these magnetic emergency lights. They run on I believe four AA batteries their LEDs they burn bright. They have a high and low setting if I remember right. Always use them on the high setting when I need to. I used to buy them at Farm and home centers and Auto Parts stores. But lately I can only find them for five times the price at truck stops. Oh I found them online turn around 15 to 20.00 a piece. They come in red and they also are available in Amber. I've actually got a couple set of electric brakes that I took off because they caused more trouble on my trailer than they actually worked. As long as I run a 3/4 ton or a 1 ton truck I've never had a problem with the trailer coming around and meeting me in a quick stop 🛑. The two trailers I have a panic brakes work really well. I've got three or four others I've just accumulated over the years. They often just sit on the farm. If you find a way to get trail lights and electric brakes to work without constantly having to work on them, you could sell that information and become a wealthy man. I don't usually give in to defeat but when it comes to trailer lights and electric brakes they just seem to have my number. Hopefully it works out where you can still put out content. I found another dump truck I like the one that your friend has. I didn't stop and look at it but it looked identical. I still be interested in your friends dump truck

@@CAROLDDISCOVER-1983 Thanks for the kind words. BTW My neighbor’s dump truck is still for sale in Affton, Missouri south of St. Louis, Mo. His Name is Mike and it is located at his business “Riddle Cabinetry” if you want to check out his site and get his Contact information.

This is my 23 Tacoma I live and work in the Ozarks and I may have forgotten to look at the roof for a while 😂

Thanks, that is what the Mosquitos say. (Comment from Walter).

Funny, this one slipped by. It was made over a month ago and a date was stuck on it. I forgot all about it. Hey about the NNN. It turns out that I Broke Out on my last run, but the other guy Red Lighted so he handed me the win. I will take luck over skill any day. I ran a 10.7472 on a 10.75 dial in. I was proud of the .0123 reaction time though. Thanks for the comment.

I brought tools & wire so we were good except for me getting too close to the exhaust. All is good.

@@Blu_Grit_Garage Glad it all worked out. Loved your Mustang!

We subbed to your channel when we met you in line waiting to get into the first NNN. I think you had around 10 to go to meet the 500 at the time.

We will have to get together sometime.

I do not see where my reply went through so if it is duplicated I am sorry. Thanks for the offer, but I use both Aluminum Ramps ant the Wood Ramps to get the Car on the Trailer because the Car is so low. The wood ramps are also handy for Oil Changes. I still have the old heavy Ramps that came with the Trailer.

@@Blu_Grit_Garage ok bud, thought I'd offer

Thanks & it was great to see both your Impalas out there.

Thanks for you helping us with getting the 500 Subs.

Thanks.

Thanks, Anna and I enjoyed hanging out with you and for being able to run with you down the strip.

Thank, it was fun. Both times we lost ground, but it did not feel like the brakes were doing much even after getting the lights working. Anna has been pushing me on getting her Horse Trailer towable.

Yes it was! Hope to see you next year.

It does stand out doesn't it?

I romped on the brakes before going thru the lights . I had a 10.75 index but was running 10.66 when testing that morning. I had no shoe polish to change the index so if the start was good I hit the brakes at the end. If I bogged or spun the tires excessively I did not hit the brakes.

Wow, Walter… you’re a time traveller!

@@johnwilburn Yeah, I am a little behind on Videos. Anna & I are not home at the same times to edit. Also I cannot math. I actually Broke-Out on my last run by .00 something, but the other guy Red Lighted. Better lucky than skilled. Thanks for a great event.

Definitely more peppy. Glad you are back.

@@Blu_Grit_Garage thanks glad to be back

Was a great time. Also brought home 2 Awards. Junk Car Willy did an interview of us on his Channel. You can see the Yellow Mustang on the Thumbnail.
