Loading To Get My Ford CL9000 Frame! Shop Update!

Dude when you found this guy and he found you its a blessing. He is amazing. Your lucky to have him

[@keepontruckinoutlawlife1248]

You taking about Chris?

[@xheralt]

I don't doubt Chris is thanking his lucky stars as well, interesting work, not more than he can handle, reasonably well paid, and a darn good boss who's cool to hang around with off the clock.

[@normc4603]

@@xheralt And the boss not breathing down his neck to get more, do more and don’t spend any money doing it. I know nothing about big rigs but a little bit about older vehicles and it’s getting harder to find the old school mechanics in my area anyways, I DO NOT know that this has anything to do with Chris, But I know several mechanics who were caught in the middle of the” computer crisis “ The computer was an ass kicker to some people, they were close to retirement age and some found great bosses like Steve, and everyone benefited except for the dealerships, They lost great employees!!

FSC Merch Church! hell yeah! sounds great!

"Merch Church" definitely works!! 😂😂😂

[@mpaqman285]

So stoked to see the ford frame coming home. Chris will have that as a rolling chassis in a week with how fast he works. It is a pretty bmw, I cant stand the grills on the new ones. But may it be a safe and reliable car for a growing family. He's gotta get some euro plates for it. That red daycab is pretty sweet too!

You need to find the right European mechanic shop and you will be fine. Coming from an ex bmw mechanic.

[@Jesse_Jessie_James]

Ha ha I bet you was finally happy getting the frame in the shop. That's a good car for Matt and Lydia. I asked Jesse that's a good car to get. And he looks at me and said good luck getting the grandkid's in the car seats and he laughed. My grandma was shaking her head and she said picture him (Pointing to Jesse) and said picture him getting in. And he said that's why he hate's car's sitting so low on the ground. He's 6'5" built. He will go head first then swing his body in. Steve allot of the dealerships for semi's don't like to work on older semi's and that's why we are always packed with semi's and mechanics are always working on them all the time. We have a customer who asked us to work on his semi truck and find out what's up with the transmission and the transmission is getting rebuilt by our mechanics. The rest of the part's will be delivered tomorrow morning and he will be heading out the door before lunchtime. Ha ha u opened the door and said Chris installed the new door stop and my grandma said busted. Cause Jesse John James never installed the new one for the passenger side on our KW. He said that he will get it installed in the morning. We got back from taking a load of Medical Supplies to Missouri and they was happy seeing us arrive at the Hospital and they had a cashier's check. And Jesse wrote it out to him and went to Walmart up there and cashed it. And yes (Hater's) we will deposit it in the business account in the morning. Jesse said he would call it the Merchandise & Camper Trailer. Cause he thinks that u will customized one side of the trailer for Merchandising and tue other end will be living quarters where u stay in and sleep. And possibly get a Green Apu System installed. We seen a small trailer that they use to transport horses. And they have a Apu System installed to keep the living quarters warm or cold depending on the weather. Jesse said that's a possibility that Steve might do. Hell I would tell them that's it's your money so u can tell me what to do. And that's why me and my family members don't talk anymore. My kid's don't want anything to do with any of them. Neither does my grandma who slapped her own daughter (My Mom) so hard (KAPOW) When my mom said she doesn't want anything to do with me and Jesse since we removed my grandma from a bad nursing home. My grandma was like GET ME OUTTA HERE NOW. We got her out tue same day my mom set her in. And she's very very happy living with us. She's massaging Jesse's neck and shoulder's. Cause we been helping with yardwork at the church. Cause the whole parking lot is getting paved and the pastor's are really happy. Seeing all the old tree's cut up and and tossed into the wood chipper and me and other people spread the???? Around the plants and stuff around the church. The kid's loves having grandma here. She shares a bedroom with our youngest daughter. They each have thete iwn bed and bathroom. They just had a small bathroom just toilet and sink. And Jesse and construction guy's remodeled it when they remodeled the whole kitchen. They have a small bathtub and shower and it's way better than before. Hell Yeah getting loaded inside is way better than outside. If u have to tarp it up. We always have been loaded inside so it's easier to tarp it up. One place was really really disrespectful to make Jesse tarp it outside in the pouring down rain. And he was pissed off. Got it covered up and I was taking videos of the worker's. Not offering to help Jesse at all. A company that we never ever did load's again after that. Jesse just hung on the side of the door standing on the step. And said go to the store down the road. I did that and parked underneath the awning and I got out and grabbed his clothes. Sjd lucky the people inside the store (It was closed) allowed Jesse to take a shower. We was happy. Made the deliver ajd I showed the executive manager and the CEO of that company the video. And he called the company we picked up at and he chewed up and down the manager for not allowing us inside to get loaded. That CEO said everyone that's in the video was fired. We had to deliver another product back. And he was there when we arrived and he fired all of them. And had other worker's from the other company take over.

[@AndrewJackson-mf5qp]

Hope your year ahead pans out the way you would like. If Matt's wife was in a car and had the crash she had, well she would be pushing up daisies. Your right to go with the gut when purchasing a vehicle. Going with one's instinct is what keeps us out of trouble.

You know they work, right?

[@davidturk6170]

@@fsctrucking- yep. Having owned eight BMW’s over the past twenty years (still have two), nothing is cheap parts, or labor. I do a lot of the work on my 2007 Z4 3.0si roadster which is pre mass computers. For example, if you change the battery, you have to go in and reprogram it (starting around 2007/8). My previous 2012 X3 35i had a leaking oil pan gasket. To replace it required dropping the subframe. BMW quotes it as a 12 hour job. A halo (around headlight) went out on my wife’s 2020 X3 m4i. BMW wanted $5k to fix. I can replace the bad module myself, but BMW wants two hours labor to reprogram the computer for the replacement BMW bought OEM module. I do like the 650’s.

You probably already know that but maybe some new will read this that doesn't know.

[@CharlesRoer-b1j]

The Ford CL9000 has Character.will require a lot of parts and time but the finished product will be worth it by not being another Pete or Kenworth . Diesel Dave ,Hunter Goodrich ,now FSC with a ford . I don’t know your plans with horsepower output . U bring CB in the business would like to mention something. Change one thing this changes everything . Heavier components to apply power to the road axels ,transmissions clutches cooling systems . Like roosters trans a cluster craft breathing is failing heavier service parts or complete trans and beady U joints . Like I said don’t know your lans but fundamentals can’t be overlooked wish u success with this project .will be great to see a bitter piece of history running the hi ways .

[@bigjobford1956]

Remember Do yourself a favor and prep your frame and use a Self Etching Primer before you assemble it,you can always come back before final painting and sand it for one final coat of Self Etching and then a good epoxy before finish painting and hopefully you use a Imron paint or clear it for Highly Recommend Lasting Finish
