    I made it on 3/4 of one tank.

    As far as the dirt work......
    Between the rain every other day.
    A broken gas pedal hinge (basically a door hinge screwed to the floor) that bent the telescoping throttle linkage when I set the cab back down. That I still haven't got quite right.
    Changing 2 heater core 90* formed hoses, which turned into changing almost all the other heater hoses. You know, since I'm already under here working.
    Being up to my eyeballs in the shop.....

    I haven't done any hauling yet.:oops:

    That's one of the first things I noticed in Indiana / Ohio region....front discharge mixers. Growing up in rural MO the only time you'd see one of those is in St. Louis. It's funny how you see similarities in "pockets" while it would be totally foreign in another area.

    I've got pics of the new custom aluminium tread plate gas pedal, some parts for the timber framers next door, and a bumper pull 20' container trailer I'm building for a fire dept training prop, all on my phone which is currently at the shop. :oops:
