What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2020]

[scoti]

Came with ramps, they are stored in the back under the deck. Put padlocks on the little doors so they wouldn't disappear.

That's how mine are set-up. Look into longer >6' ramps if you load lowered cars or cars that have low clearance headers.

mclellan83 mentioned getting a pan modified to suit; so it may be different sized apples being compared here.

Yeah supposed to be a modified stock Silverado pan so that it takes the filter and all, just pulled the trigger on a 5.3 L33 that has like 137k and a 90 day warranty delivered to the shop in about a week. I got tired of bouncing back and forth, now for the fun of trying to fix all the broken cladding so I don't have to fork over 900 bucks

L33 is a definite winner.

Looking forward to seeing this come together.

Paying for my driveshaft.

Something "small"...

Nice piece of equipment. I'm jealous. I've seen lots of guys put a toolbox on the nose for straps, tools etc. Could also put the battery for the winch in there.

Also some Sacrificial Skid Plate for when you drag the tail out of the driveway. I've also seen PVC tubing or even whip antenna with LED lights to get the marker and signal lights up higher and into peoples visibility from the rear. When they are close they cannot see your trailer tails. I've been near rear ended a few times tugging my boat until someone else mentioned that to me.

Looks like a sweet purchase

Hanging a replacement fender on Jr's Cop Vic.

These Panther Platform cars always rot away one front fender around here. There is no rhyme or reason which side it is. In this case it's the driver's side.

I'll get it all back together tomorrow and plan to shoot it and touch up a few other areas over Labor Day weekend.

Raced my junk today. Won both races and also the battle with the rear brake pads.

I'm especially proud of the one on the left.

Started working on the basement upgrades yesterday, finished this wall today. Had to add trim, baseboard and such. This was 1st time working on trim without a mitre saw. Had to freehand all the 45's with a circular saw which was fun, but it's done and looks way better than before. Here is a comparison to before the new windows were installed...
