Took Janet in the truck to Lauren's TOB compaction tonight. Ran 70-80 mph on the GSP for a little over a 1/2 hour no issues. The driveshaft vibration is a bit annoying but I'll fix it sooner than later Lauren's marching band went on the field tonight ranked 3rd in there division and scored an 80.200 with a score like that and a first place finish they should now be ranked 1 or 2 in grupe 3 open so that's awesome. The wife didn't complain at all about the truck so that's good to lol it's 11pm and I'm sitting in the highschool parking lot just enjoying my heated seat. Can't wait to see what tomorrow brings.

Heated seat? I was over 80 here again today! I'm sure in typical CO fashion it'll suddenly realize the seasons have changed and go full bipolar.

It's not here yet either. 96° today. Should be better next week. First front of the season.

Finally made it to the yard and fired up my Coupe Deville. Hasn’t run in almost 3 years and was from my best buddy. A 1975 500cid. Took a bit (jumpers and fresh gas) down it’s throat but it ran!

Messed around with the Merc. These are the hubcaps we wanted to use but they require reverse offset wheels, they are almost 4" deep.




So we abandoned the 15's and tried out the 22's. Front still needs to come up an inch or two so the car sits level or just a hair high. We also used some black vinyl and colored in the spokes to tone down the chrome.

Getting chilly here as well, way to rub it in guys. Only good part is that it is only a couple weeks away for the Pizza Power Tour my favorite day of the year

22's????? Ugly? Why they're HIdeous!!!! It's a Merc, not a Donk. Next you'll be throwing aluminum spacers between the frame mounts and the body and adding a 6" lift kit to the poor brute. Reverse rims are not that hard to acquire, leave them raw or paint/powder coat them. Those Caddy Caps are so substantial that they will totally mask the rim behind them.

While I agree on the wheel comment it's not our ride..... The only thing that matters is that the cars owner likes the wheel choice.
