Just figure I should put something up here. Got the snowmobile running and I’ve had lots of fun with it so far. Truck is still sitting there waiting for it’s heart transplant but the new engine is ready to go in at least. Christmas was good. My cousin Duane and his wife were down for it so I got to catch up with him for a while. Other than that nothing much has happened. So if something crazy happens I’ll be sure to put it up here.

Alright so the truck finally went to the shop to get the engine looked at and well there was some bad news… It needs a new motor. So my plan as of right now (and of course this may change) is to go bigger and better. I’m looking for a truck with a 3.4L V6 to swap into mine. It’ll be a fair amount of work but I think it’ll be worth it

Of course I’m gonna need a set of wheels here shortly, I’ve gone without a way to drive myself around for far to long so… time to get the tercel inspected. But it’s not just gonna be inspected, I’m gonna add a few “Upgrades” add a nice push bar on the front. maybe a tube bumper on the back and some sliders. Once that’s all done top it off with a winch on the front. This is gonna be one bad ass tercel! Of course i’ll give her a nice simple flat black paint job and then paint “Winter Beater” across the trunk

I’m actually just gonna put the post I put on Yotatech

“Alright I’ve started to do quite the amount of work. As you can see I’ve taken the bed off the frame.

What I’ve started doing now is taking a wire wheel to the bottom of the bed, cleaning off the rust. Then I’m gonna coat it with bed liner, Flip it over, do the same to the inside of the bed and inside where my fenders will sit. Them paint the rest of it. After that I’ll probably move on to the frame/axels witch i’ll also wheel down and bed liner up. I’m also in the process of putting my new fenders on. and then bed linering the rockers and painting the rest of the cab. And probally a few other small things I’m forgetting right now.

I’ve also got that CD player installed and it’s been working great. You can see one of my patch metal sources, an old pressure tank I love having so much metal lying around, I’m gonna cut up an old boiler to patch the frame with too.”
