I'm still working at a steel rule die shop, same as the last 27 years. Currently in the QC area, (As in the only person doing it on two shifts) I get to do what we used to have three people doing, but it's the only way to keep the shop moving to Mexico, it's hard to compete with $45 a week pay. The company is Canadian owned, operates our shop in the U.S and we ship almost everything we make to Mexico  :lol:

Quote from: "N8DC"Looks like were good to go for detroit. A few little things to do and check some clearances. This thing sits pretty low . May have to adjust some.. The second windshield i had cut they cut it 1/8 of an inch smaller on the heigth than my pattern and I just got it to work but im not happy with it. Really wish id had a little wider trim but its gonna be ok for a while then im going to take it to a glass shop and let them do it.Its pretty cold out today I should shower and hit the garage and then drive it down to the corner and back while the streets are still dry :) It was all I could do yesterday to not make a run.....

SWEET!, but you got done awfully early, aren't you supposed to thrash up till a couple hours before they open the doors at Cobo?? How are ya gonna kill the next week and a half?  :D

Quote from: "Gambler"I have to say, Stacey built a nice Bronco with all those donated aftermarket parts (lol)

It was cool to see him thrash the crap out of it, and that they showed some of the problems that happened out in the field. (I was expecting that thing to spin a 360 on the wet pavement test)

As my girl so eloquently commented: "Wow, he sure has an easy job"

"I liked the part where"....their custom spare tire mount broke and flew right out of the vehicle, musta been the part the they actually built on the show  :D

Quote from: "Beck"Hi guys and gals. Those of you who have been here may The question I have today; How do you get the smell of fiberglass out of the garage. My garage is attached and the smell comes into the house every time the door is opened.  I have been doing some glass work out there for the tractor hood.  I have opened the door for hours at a time, which makes if very cold this time of year in IL. I dislike letting the door open too long. I have quite a bit of paint out there and don't want it to freeze. My wife is haveing a fit, not that I blame her.
Beck

Hi, good to see you back, been a while.  I don't know how to remove the fiberglas smell, but you could cover it by frying some mushrooms on the stove, when my wife does that, (I don't eat fungus) it covers ANY smell possible!  :lol:
BTW how was hunting this past season?

Seems like the AARP card costs money(membership) to get a discount. kinda confusing[/quote]

That's funny, my wife and i were discussing this as i brought up the your post. Seems i recieved another offer to join yesterday. I didn't think i'd ever make up the enrollment fee in discounts. If i want to read their magezine I can borrow my brother/sister/moms copy.  :lol:  Now maybe if Speedway or some of these other guys would offer an AARp discount....

Quote from: "DrChop"I have been very busy with work, and one of the kids made some long-distance calls to NZ and we had the phone off until tax time came and it could get turned back on. I also got the shock of my life, when Maggie claimed Shannon, screwed me out of $3900 in taxes, and then signed a PO on me. I've spent the past week getting all my things out of the Valpo house, and have a hearing in court this afternoon, so I need to get off Dad's 'puter now at 2AM and get some sleep. She's gonna find out in court I'm filing for paternity, and I intend not to let things rest until I have custody of Shannon. I'll get over it, I'm better off without Ms Greedy, I just want my daughter back in my life... 6 years basically shot to #####... }8^O



Doc

Hey doc glad to see you're still alive, I was wondering about you too. Sorry to hear about your family problems, hang in there, it'll be behind you soon.

I like that he took the time to paint the added prow to match the car, and the roof rack is a good touch too. I would actually like to see how he made that thig float and move

How long has this been going on?
I clicked on my favorite favorite today and i got "Internal Server Error"
When did the site move? My computer took a huge dump last week, but when i came back online the old RRT was still there. I see posts on here from late January...I'm so confused... (but I'm happy I found this through the H.A.M.B.)  :shock:
