What did you do to your non-G Body project today [2024 edition]

Found a Malibu. It's a little rough. Don't think carb is good. Will need seats and few other things. 1705093411506(1).jpg

Found the bumper and bumper cover for the Taurus in local pull a part. Got to go back and get them tomorrow. It's hard enough to find a good one.

Found something interesting today. I was at Walmart and saw they had OEM Subaru filters on the shelf. I looked inside one of the boxes and it was not the blue Fram-clone filter I'm used to seeing. It appears Subaru has switched to Tokyo-Roki as their filter supplier for the US market. T-R is/was already the supplier for JDM Subarus but Honeywell was the main US supplier for a long time. I know Subaru had supply chain issues getting filters over the past few years but the Tokyo-Roki filters are supposed to be good quality, much better than the blue Fram clones. I hope they continue to be available because I'll gladly use them.

That's one thing I need to look into, a meat grinder. I've got some deer left over in my freezer from last year, had to cut up the stuff I couldn't get good full cuts into stew meat chunks because I didn't have a grinder to mix it with some pork sausage. Basically that small left over stuff you'd grind. It'll go in the crock pot eventually as it is.
I prefer to use an old cast iron hand crank grinder we've had in the family forever to make kielbasa, but, chewed up whitetails in ground just fine too.

However, the wife hated it, and sometimes the shoulder acts up these days. Bought her the attachment that mounts to the front of her kitchenaid mixer, which, works pretty good too. And if you want to make venison sausages at any point to also has a stuffing attachment that can also be slipped on too that you can roll casing on and have it direct feed out, pretty handy.
