mowerman Posted Wednesday at 10:38 PM Author Share Posted Wednesday at 10:38 PM Even with all the shit taken out of it, I am not sure if I can lift the case into my wash tank. I’ll get started back on it in the morning. After the gym class, of course. 1 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/71/#findComment-579700 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Mack Posted Wednesday at 10:59 PM Share Posted Wednesday at 10:59 PM Yes Bob .. the 673.. truth... Sometimes, i dont feel like touching it because its a pain in my A$$. I am weak on that era, and Everything i do to it takes longer than it should, and I have tools. Parts are hard to get some times, and so on and so on. I will be driving 45 minutes tomorrow after work to hunt through several piles of parts to look for a good turbo mounted exhaust manifold.. Oh Boy.. ok... I think I' m bitching now... 🍻 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/73081-finally-some-dm-progress/page/71/#findComment-579701 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post mowerman Posted 14 hours ago Author Popular Post Share Posted 14 hours ago Well, I didn’t do anything yesterday now we’re planning a barbecue for tomorrow. Gotta get ready for that shopping cleaning the yard cleaning the porch. Oh well, always something but Mrs mower didn’t tell me this morning that she has noticed I am getting very lazy She’s retiring in six months. Oh good.
