Idle Hands...


Since my Mom decided to give me her old truck I now get to redo the 51 correctly and completely. Drove it to the shop last week and promptly ripped it apart and inspected parts as I went. Truck has had a coolant leak for a while at the water pump. Found a freeze plug that was leaking and a rear end axle seal is bad. 90 weight everywhere when I pulled the wheel off. Also on the boards for the 51 is new primer color, new wheels and tires, stereo, cut the mufflers off, door hinge pins, new radiator, new water pump, paint engine bay, and a new old stock steering wheel. Anyone got one? So in true fashion I am gonna keep myself real busy and keep the mind empty. Idle hands start creeping around. Should get the Ironhead back this week and then it will be serious thrash time.
