That V8 tho...

Good 90 degree bends. Those arnt always easy to get without a metal brake.

Good work! I think it’ll work just fine.

Those tires are massive!

Test drive was successful. No error codes or weird noises. I went to a parking lot and went through all the 4WD and locker modes. Everything seems to be working as it should.

There's still a few things I want to do before we put it up for sale, but I'm hopefully over the biggest hurdle.

Woot!!!

That’s good news!

[ChargerX3]

Success!

[Jeff V.]

I'm finally getting around to fixing the last few things before we put it up for sale. Or course it's fighting back.

So far I've managed to take a chunk out of the bridge of my nose with a slipped ratchet handle, and I've broken off a thread tap trying to fix a stripped nut in the frame.

To add insult, the AC I put so much time and money and effort into still has a pinhole leak somewhere.

We need to try to get some money out of it to go towards some work on our bathroom.

I think you will have zero trouble selling it. Those things bring a pretty penny here in TN.

I feel you on the slipped ratchet episode. I did that once installing the downpipe on my 92 TT. The sharp corner of the ratchet hit me right in the top of my head as i was torquing it. Literally spider cracked my forehead open.

[Jeff V.]

The ratchet handle I was using has a sort of sharp edge on the bottom of the handle. I'm surprised it didn't bleed more. I covered it with a spot bandaid for a couple days and so far it's healing nicely. I got really lucky. It's right where the nose pad on my glasses rests on my nose. Really close to my eye. It's also good I wasn't wearing my glasses at the time. I'd have probably smashed the shit out of them. This is probably the nicest pair I've ever owned. I'm not anxious to smash them up or scratch them.

I am accident prone and clumsy.. hence why I put on full safety gear from head to toe when I use the chainsaw hah. Done too many stupid things in my life to take chances...

[ChargerX3]

Well, im glad you didn't do much worse damage. A slipped wrench to the face is no joke.

[Jeff V.]

Dunno if I mentioned it, but we listed it for sale. Not getting much interest so far. Pretty much as I expected.

The AC died again too. I just cannot win with AC.

[DCIV]

Didn’t know you listed it. How much?

Vira started it at 12.5. We bought it for 10, but I put a lot of work into it. I'm convinced we're going to lose our asses on it. It's still really, really rough.

Nothing a good cleaning and some rattle can cant fix before another shoot.
