Quit getting side tracked on other projects!...kidding, but I don't know how you do it all. I can only have 1 thing tore apart at a time or I can't sleep at night and I wouldn't remember how to put them back together.
|
Lol yes I agree. I have shortened a lot of these kodiaks so it gets repetitive lol. I’ll have that one al done with the bed on and stuff next week so it will be on the road then hopefully by then we’ll have some resin and we can get back at it!!! But this truck will be pretty much only for towing the boat . We got them so cheap and the run like new I won’t mind not using it to much so technically it’s for the boat project lol. And I did get the jet boat out and done last weekend !!! So making progress !!! Even had the better half out in the shop helping lol
|
I wish I had 1/10 of your talent and know how!
|
If anybody here has ever seen what he does in person you would know he's absolutely nuts lol
eric's attention to detail is very rare these days |
Eric is the best !!!
|
Let’s not get carried away lol
|
To be honest I like working in the garage I like doing all my own work. It’s my time to mentally unload a bit lol. And I’ve always put a lot of work in my boats this by far the biggest project yet but when it’s done I should be able to run it for years to come with just some maintenance. Fingers crossed

thought those TB carbs looked familiar

I had some dash pods from a boat a while back me and Dave worked together to make the molds. Still a ton of work to get them in the boat correctly. Being that the liner is out know it makes it a hole lot easier.
