Isn’t it about the same year model as hours….

The beads in the door and back are probably 60’s. Mine was a ‘74. Mine had the big square blinkers on the front fenders.
Is the one he drives the same year as that one. Who ever was driving when it bent the front bumper , definitely hit hard to bend that.
They are worth big money redone.
There are still a few around the city in good condition.
Chip Foose did one over on Overhauling. Too nice to take out and beat up. Too nice to even get mud on it.

And a motor and transmission, both of which are setting just there in a shed….

The motors and transmissions are hard to kill. They are getting rare.

It’s down to 5 degrees this morning. Not going up much today. Everything is frozen solid. Going up to 50 degrees tomorrow and 2” of rain. And rain Sunday. Probably going to be some flooding. All the catch basins are still covered in snow. I think we’re good. Going to be a lot of melting with over a foot of snow.

It’s 38* at 6:00 am. There’s been a dusting of snow, there’s a 50% chance of mix at 9:00 am and then pretty much nothing else. It has been extremely windy, had to cut a tree top off the county road to get out yesterday, and several blown down on my property. I’m a bit concerned about the new carport. In fact looking out it’s snowing now. What terrible timing. Today is when I have to pack up and load up to be ready to leave first thing tomorrow morning when it will be 10*…….

25 going to 30ish with flurries...got 2" of "flurries" last night...glad it didn't snow. Northern and Western mountains may get 18 - 36" over the weekend and 6" to 8" in the valleys according to the weather guessers. Headed to Walley Mart to stock up on bacon and nacho cheese for weekend games. Steelers almost did it last night. Working on rewiring my 74 CT90 and converting to 12 volts between games and naps...it's dangerous to fool with hot bacon grease when you are sleepy.

Be careful on those steps...they look slippery.

Nah, it’s not cold enough, I’m surprised it’s not rain…

Look at it this way,
It will be a good test for the carport.
My roof over the hot tub, if we get it, survived no problem with a foot of snow. Hopefully won’t get much more than that.
Hopefully that’s it for the winter.

Took the bike out this morning and plowed the ice at the ends of the driveways around me. Little thing will push some snow, and ice. But I used it so now I don’t care if I use it again this winter.

I actually thought they were going to come back. Damn close.
Do you get the smoked Maple flavour bacon. Very yummy. Now I want to go make some.
Have a great day guys

Still windy, partly cloudy now, that bit of snow that fell early is all gone…..

We are under gun again tomorrow. Record highs could be set. Expected 70's into maybe low 80's tomorrow. Chances of severe weather also.

Well here it comes we have 30 MPH wind out of the SW and lightning in the NE, we live in NW AR. Batten the hatches!

Just dropped 10 degrees in 10 minutes, wind is switching, be blowing out of the North in an hour or less.

Now it warmed back up 2 degrees and wind back out of the SW at 6 MPH, rain lasted about 15 minutes, I think the front battle isn't over yet. I just love my weather gizmo.

Was looking earlier and saw a bunch of tornado warnings in Arkansa. Hoping the best for you all.

We don't have any tornado warnings yet, but it could happen, I think most of the warnings are for Central and East Arkansas. We're the the extreme NW corner or pretty close. The fronts are at a stale mate right now. Thanks!

I'm at camp. Quarter size hail. Winds blew about 40 mph. Wind blowing now and raining.

It warmed back up from 61 to 67 in the last 30 minutes, no rain, the fronts are battling, I hope were not stuck in the middle of it. Any big temp swings, wind switches where you're at?
