Where is everyone #5

Would ya look at that brand new coffee cup!??

 

You’re a mess, sir.

 

Wonder how long this one will last

 

Well, in true ShooterK2 fashion, I don’t hide my mistakes from you guys. I’ve said it many times, I ain’t no mechanic. I just like working on my own stuff.

Anyway, ole Junkyard Dog started makin a little noise as I got close to Perryton the other night. Not loud, just like a slight rattle. So I shut her down and yanked a valve cover and jake housing. Very little oil getting to the top end.

Course I’m 130 miles from home and under a load. So I make a phone call or two and a couple hours later....




.... I’m gettin to take the ride of shame.

Oh well, at least it’s a pretty cool wrecker. ‘52 International military truck with an ‘85 DT-466 and a 13. He told me all about it on the 3-hour ride home.... I just couldn’t hear most of what he said.

 

Oh I bet that was a long, loud, slow ride home.

 

We hate to hear that. But on the bright side it didn't shut down. Hopefully it's a minor issue.

 

3 hours for 130 miles. Worst part though was having to endure it while mad at myself and just wishin I was at the shop already turning wrenches to fix what I messed up....

 

Anybody heard from @Bear135 lately?

 

No Sir that’s my brother in law.

 

He was here last night around 9:30-10:00.
