I second that! Hurry up Art, I can't wait to see that thing on some rocks

[aw12345]

Freddy is blazing away at it.He shiould get his steering parts tomorrow

[vwtipeii]

ahh... so that is where you and Fredilicous were this weekend... we missed yall and thought you were both on a nice romantic man date to Palm Springs...

[aw12345]

Nah you and Snickerdoodle like that more. I had to work Saturday, so seemed like a waste to come out Friday night to shoot the bull.
Moving this get together to Cougar Buttes would be more fun. Calico has about 5 minutes of fun for me. the rest is just puttering about and wasn't worth burning a option day to me. Freddy has been slaving at it for awhile now, I just felt like seeing what the he was cooking up this time around. Going to be pretty cool when it's all fixed up

[curtis]

Sweeeet!!! Fred.

[aw12345]

Going to visit again sometime soon to see what Fred whips up for steering. That is going to be interesting

Mo Freddy fabbing









This whole setup is very nicely packaged and quite the tight affair, very nice work Fred

[aw12345]

Picked up two of these 65 bucks a pop sales tax included, not bad at all.
Now I can see where the hell I am going part of the time

[vwtipeii]

hahah... Art.. I kind of like the dust goggles look... after driving for an hour on so on the freeway on Sunday it is kind of cool to go windshieldless... don't be a quitter!

on a serious note.. some amazingly clean fab work by Fredilicious!!!

haha, I drove my 2a around with no windshield for a few weeks, it really is kinda cool But gets old quickly, after you get a few bugs in the face.

Windshield down at speed is like riding a motorcycle without a helmet--fun. I've driven my TJ windshield down (or out) at 65mph or better a few times. At that speed the bugs kinda hurt, but the splatter is the worst part . Fortunately I dodged more than I caught. :homer:

Slowly starting to get ready for my Moab trip, got one of my tires fixed, yeah, 2 more to go.
Was always doubtfull you could pop a bead with a hilift jack and it actually works fairly well.
Here is a nice progression of my addiction, the lil tire is the stock tire of my yellow Jeep
Still the brand new spare, the other 4 stayed on the Jeep 3 months and about 3000 miles since I took it from the showroom floor, been down hill from there



Some of my tire fixin stuff

Those patch plugs work well if you use plenty of glue. Nice little stash there. Kinda funny looking back at the stocker tires and remembering the humble beginnings huh?
