Datsun 620 pick up

Here is my old truck I sold couple years ago. The guy brought it by and was all out of adjustment. So I asked him to leave it here and I will put some time in to it. I actualy missed this lil truck. I have to adjust the brakes, clutch travel, carb, timing and the engine valves. I'm going to polish some of the crome and lift it about an inch and a half all around cause the suspention bottoms out. Well I'll keep you guys posted.

New windows

A little OT I have been wanting to replace the original windows in my house for a while. I wanted windows that fit the house's character,they needed to look and open like the 1940's windows. Last december I contacted a friend of mine who works for a window shop. He came over measured up and got the right size for the hole. I got some custom Milguard wood clad windows, dual pain with gas filled and uv protection. They are fiberglass and came painted to the color of choice. Best thing I have done to the house yet. No more cold nights, no more drafts. Here's some before and after pic's.

The "Ball" mason jars

I got a chance to clean up some space in my garage cabinet. I had an assortment of screws, misc. House hold nails and staples with no designated place for them. It takes a while to find them when im looking for them. I had gone over to a freinds house and I saw he had a collection of mason jars hanging above the door frame. Looked so cool and clutter clean, I had gone over to target an found some for $4 bucks. Here's what it looks like.

"The Beast" My 66 chevelle

This is my chevelle I've had for 9 years. The story behind the chevelle is, my wife (then girlfreind) bought it for me. I used to have a 65 chevelle that we had put together throgh high school and got stolen. Two months later she bought me the body no engine or trans. It took me 8 months to get it on the road. I had built this one with vengence for those bastards that took my firts car. Just to show you could not stop me. The mill is a 350 010 block 30 over with 12 to 1 comp and a solid roller set up. High flow protopline heads and a single plane intake. For the trans a 400th with manual valve body and a billet converter. The rear end is a well built 10 bolt with 4:11's and an eaton possi. I used it for street racing but those days are over. New plans are on the way so stay tuned.

My 36 Ford Truck "Hemi Time"

This is my 4 year project I have been working on and off. I got it from a freinds dad who said it was a ranch truck here in Oxnard. The truck was apart and hadent been together in years until I got my hands on it. The power train is a 241 dodge hemi with a 4 speed muncie behind it and a ford 9" rear end. For the last few months I had been driving the truck, took it to the Ventura Nats, the Long Beach Motorama. I'm currently taking it apart due to a faulty cam( flat lobes) so I will post some info on that deal later. Here are some past photos.

New to the "Blogger World" but here it goes...

New to the "blogger" world but I had to do something to get my words out. I'm not a grammar expert so dont judge me. I just want to post what I do around my garage, freinds garage, car shows and my car club. My buddy Travis got me into the blogger biz so I'm giving it a try. Good luck to me. I'm going to attempt to post my first picture.
