If I knew 30 years ago that I'd feel like this, I might have done a few things differently. But I doubt it.
Yep same here.

Maybe I'm just getting soft and spoiled. Thirty years ago, I would have probably been laying on my back under a Mopar, lowering a Torqueflite onto my chest before sliding it off of me, rolling out from under the car, and then dragging the trans out from under. Things like a floor jack, a lift, a building, have all spoiled me and made me soft. LolYep same here.
I'm still dragging the transmission out by hand but not going to happen anymore.

I keep debating if I feel this way because of the things I used to do, or if I feel this way because I don't do them as much anymore.
With me it's old age setting in I think.

Being a bricklayer I have always had sciatica, made my self a hanger were I would hang by my knees feet hooked under a 1X4. I would hang upside down then when my muscles would fatigue there would be an audible pop. Took about 15 minutes Used this for most of my working career. Kept me pain free. Not saying it will work for you but.
Wow good idea.

As my buddy says "if I knew I was going to live this long I would have taken better care of myself"
Morning guys, sunny out there right now and should be around 50F today.
We'll see how windy it gets.
Have a great week.

71 Swinger. Drag car since 1976. Was an ultra low budget car. Extensively gutted. Full Lexan. Cage. Mini tubs. Putting it on the street, so swapping doors for ones that haven't been cut so extensively that they won't accept stock glass. Going back to all stock glass. Quarters were cut to clear a 31 by 12.5 slick on an uncut B body rear. Patching them back in with sections from a donor car. The list goes on and on, but suffice to say that there will be parts from at least 14 different A bodies, two B bodies, and who knows what all else. Definitely a hodge podge.

Morning guys.
Going to my Rheumatologist this morning. Last time I saw him was back in Dec the day before I fractured my shoulder so should be a big surprise for him. After that I go for an EKG so a busy morning.
Rain this afternoon though.
Have a great day
