Exhaust turned out nice.
Your "land of junk" threads always entertain me. I like to follow your pursuits. The label on that plate made me chuckle. Years ago, with one of my Harley's, my wife would ask me why I spent so much time fiddling in the shed. I told her I was licking the bike, and when I tasted something I didn't like, I would replace it. Happy New Year.
Like ur spark plug gap tool

It's one of my favorite snapon tools. It works so much better than feeler gauges or the round gap tools. They are only like $20
I just ingested this entire saga! 51 pages. Bravo!, Author, Author!
The story of a guy growing up in Ohio! I laughed, I cried, I ate popcorn. Thanks for chronicling all of this. Hoping many young folks read this and realize that they can do it too! I lived the exact same story, except in my story everything was different but the Highs and the Lows were identical!, the Triumphs and Tragedies! the Hopes and Dreams, the Thrill of Victory and the Agony of Defeat!!
Carry On Man!

Wow! All 51 pages, that was a read!
Fun fact, not originally from Ohio, was from Arizona then Tennessee and after that Ohio, I just take my role as Ohio man very serious.
I appreciate the kind words! I'll keep it up!

I bought a bunch and gave them out for Christmas to all the local car/bike buddies who have helped me last year.

Great gift, love that!
Similarly, I made these (at the time no one was making them) for a bunch of buddies that I always go up to Tail of the Dragon with as a gift a few years back

Those are super cool!
Since the ranger is getting pressed into backup winter duty guess this is a thing I should do.
Also changed the cabin filter in the blue civic. Roughly 2 years old.
My appliance of a civic is for sale. Price is super OBO for grm folks.

Si is all detailed up
Cabin filter, less than a year old.
Bonus of finding the window sticker.
Blue civic is gone off to its new home.
Rocker got fixed on the jeep, and fender flair got painted.
Before: it was repaired here very poorly at some point.
Fit up.
After
Fender flair no longer black
I also went caliper painting nuts till I ran out of paint.

LOL, got snow chains for the f150. Led, slow, works great on ice

I got some snow tires one the way for it, it got dumb warm here so I'm not in a super rush. I drove around a bunch and was figuring out what i wanted for snow duty.
Beep Squarakee gets some more love.
Upper control arms where new when I got it, lowers where probably factory.
Did all 4 shocks with kyb and front and rear sway bar links
Ended up putting on some mudflaps for a upcoming trip. Try to save the new rocker and stuff on the trailer.
went on a wiper blade painting kick.
Ford MF Ranger maintenance time.
Front end clunk was definitely the broken sway bar link.
New wheel bearings, wheel seals, swaybar links and some paint later we are back for some more miles.
Redid the mudflap situation on the ranger.
Tested when I dropped stuff off to powder coat
Also did acuity shifter bushings and base bushings on the SI
Tested ranger mudflaps pulling my buddy out.
Also got a new to me from the trash power washer to replace my one the pump locked up.
I'm not seeing Yosemite Sam or Taz on any of these mudflaps.
FAIL
In reply to GCrites :
Carl (guy who does my graphics) is working on a little something to fix that.
Well I continue to be a glutton for cheap running and riding cars. My new to me 97 civic coupe 5 speed. $500 and some more info to come.
