Best friend’s first car,forest green? Dragon wagon. That was the truck for many years, his dad hauled almost everything to build a house. Ron recalled plywood stacked so high he had enough room to lie on top For the 75 mile trip out to the lake. They owned a campground for many years.
 
Morning!
Warmed up overnight. -9c and to just above freezing. Got back wheels off the Mustank, it was a burnout machine!
Two ways to look at that, burnout as in smoking tires or burnout referring to whoever the owner was that

took all the parts out. Parts guy owner found everthing, i think.
 

I think I mentioned that I didn't want any excitement at work when the guy I was escorting lifted the old generator he was replacing out, well I didn't get my wish. He drove his forklift inside the fence, gravel was soft and he stuck it, even tho a 4x4 it was open diffs and it was stuck, no down pressure on forks, no downriggers. I took my truck and positioned it about 90 degrees from where shown in pic, ran the winch cable thru the fence and pulled him out. Game over for yesterday, new generator is onsite and old one will be hoisted over the site fence when the much larger equipment arrives this morning, pics to follow just in case some more shIIt happens : )

Thats crazy!
 
That site is has multiple towers and structures and is at the top of "Burlington Hill" all residential. There's a small fringe of trees but you have to watch where you take a leak lol, lots of dog walkers go to the top. There's a lighted cross, pretty big one too up there, I hope that never goes away.
