It makes me feel better that there are other people out there alive and well.
Now for some interesting discussions, problems, new projects even gripes.

Cut wood most of the day yesterday. Today I rested and just cooked dinner with my daughter.

Tired of conflicts and and the "One uppers" with information. The posting of technical repair information seems to have become a competitive sport and that is not what this site was built around and not what I am into. I want to help people fix their vehicles but I refuse to butt heads with someone who insists that the information that they got from their Uncles second cousins brothers best friend is the absolutely ONLY way to fix the vehicle. Never mind they have never even looked inside of the workings of one themselves. Tired of trying to help people that are having problems with the site when I do not have the power to do anything on the site but delete spammers and bad posts.

Don't worry Rick, I'm about to start a new project, your advise is always appreciated. :wink: I've been working on my M211, I usually discuss it on the SS site, don't get much response here. :( Hambone

That's OK, I'll talk M211 with ya! I seldom go to SS, way too snooty over there. I have an account, but just never drop in. This place and G503, (the SJC forum), are just like home, warts and all :lol: :lol: Love to hear everyone's opinions and have spirited discussions, in a reasonable manner
I also talk M37 Dodge, my first love!
I have also been known to be a rock tosser on some forums, just to stir things up. :shock: :lol:

Now Fil, see what happens when you wake up the ODG ...jeep blasphemy :lol: :lol:

Hi Hambone, I tried starting one of my M211's just yesterday but the starter won't turn over, must be wring cause it tested good in the shop.

I still need to clean up the M151 and take more pictures to share. I was looking at one of the original web straps to the bow and moving it and it was so rotten it came apart. Then I realized they are riveted to the bow. I will eventually have to figure out how to replace that.
