Work was going to be slow on Friday, so I asked for the day off to give a jr employee the chance to work (plus it gave me a three day weekend). Started Thursday night by cutting a hole in the wall to access the tub drain. The slider for stopping the drain was jammed nearly closed. Got that apart, then went to the hardware store to get the repair parts. I would have been able to finish that night, except I forgot about the connector between all the new parts and the old drain pipe, so I finished early Friday morning and began to patch the wall. Had the patch in, and 1st coat joint compound on by 9am. I then decided to start on the garage clean out that I have been wanting to do for the past 3-4 months. I turned this....

That old Pinto has not moved out of the garage since August 1996.

I still have a lot to do to get the garage cleaned out. While the Pinto was out of the way, I decided to upgrade the garage lighting. I had to go into the attic to install outlet boxes in the ceiling and run the wiring. Hung three of the four HF 4ft LED lights and plugged them in. What a difference, I am very happy. By late Sunday, I needed to get most of the items back into the garage for the coming work week. I plan on working on it some more next weekend, along with a dump run sometime during this week.

Cleaned it. All I have left is the little stuff I piled on the work benches so I could sweep the piggy floor

Wasn't much in the mood, but I cut another hole in the garage ceiling to mount an electrical outlet, and hung two more LED shop lights. Tomorrow I will go into the attic to wire the outlet, and also hang more lights.

You beat me by 3 engines, one trans and two cars. I'm showing these pics to my wife so she knows what I'm shooting for lol.


Haha there are more engines, transmissions and cars. If you look close you can see the delivery van and my F600 in the background of 1 pic. I can help you with the transmissions. I'm selling a bunch of TH350 and 400s all BOP. Just saying.
I believe in helping people reach their goals 😂
