You other HARD HEADS out there know!!! Go do EVERYTHING u aren’t supposed to be doing anymore! Light the BUICK torches,drink another cup of black coffee and run towards the barn fields with a sharp as a dragon tooth, saw back machete (in Viking style OF COURSE! MANDATORY! Rip open the barn doors on the Suburban (Suburbasaurus!!!) to Expose the 12,000 lb receiver hitch mountable BAD LANDS (Perfect! No good land her unless you LOVE stickers,snakes and rabid kritters! Lol) then of course is the “Farm TOUGH 20” chain saw just in case I have enuff in the fritzeee tank after a “nice” bushwacking trip to my stashed 1967 low mile 430 I put back here DECADES ago! Yes! Poorly kept I know BUT (big buts too! Lolohhhh yesssss) ALL I need is the block to bore to bore to accept the factory Buick Stage II pistons swinging from HD rods that I just bought last night! YYYYESSSSSSS!!!! Anyhow where was I? Oh yeh totally overdoing everything my body will tolerate and I will sleep GOOD tonite,no promises on how the morning will be though! On the wagon so no fire water calories so I will FIT in my car when done (wouldn’t that be a pisser?lol Sorry Sir FatAss u don’t fit lmao) Sling blade is working well,this AWESOME (took MANY experiments to find one that holds up to my abuse!) machete. Then also incorporating two steel J hooks with a common eyelet,V-pattern and throwing that into huge vine piles near my gantry crane and “just”(some grunting involved!) drag the stuff out till reaches the end of my tension,ninja machete it(yes of course they had machetes too! Lol) then throw the hooks back in.Repeat till paramedics tell u it’s time to go bye-bye On break for this Saturday report lol Built myself a chair outta two Japanese,Radar wheel design ripped off appliance mags(don’t get excited they are 14”er’s) Okay gonna lose the shade I bushwhacked into and I like shade! Y’all be careful but if u need advice don’t ask this whack job! Have fun,stay dirty,and keep that Buick fire glowing! Fighting for mine today,I might not be much but I am a DAMN GOOD Grunt!
Hide & Seek.....try and find the gantry crane that tried to kill me one day years ago in picture lol BACK TO WORK YOU PEASANT! Lol
Means I spray the pastures with 2-4D for weeds. My daughter has auto immune issues so the poisins in the air won't effect her. They do nothing, nothing, nothing to me. Means the dog will pine, whine and be insufferable. He will want constant attention and petting. He will want to sleep on the bed... NOT! Means I have to feed horses, much stalls and shovel manure. Means I don't have to shave. Means I will grill a lot of meat and throw a chicken onb the rotisserie. Mikey
You go Mikey! Hope that your daughter tolerated that spray better. Yes,my dog is up whining in the farmhouse he can just get over it! Lol Hey! WAIT! What’s thissss! This explains why I haven’t been saved by the bell! Wow
Misjudged where it was put found a porcelain medical tray and lamp along with the bell. Just hacked through the waterfall of weeds and laid eyeballs on the 430. Still tarped and on a skid! Yes!
Well sorry for the let down most of ya already knew “just an ole dirty,rusty 430” but Y’all were keeping me accountable to get this project done whether you knew it or not so thanks for putting up with me. The intake ports fortunately were plugged up and it looks fairly decent for sitting back here for 15 years or more. Tomorrow I’ll clear the vines jamming the chainfall hoist and see if I can get it in my truck without getting mired down in mud. Then I’ll make sure it’s free,I usually put Marvel mystery oil in the cylinders when I know they’re going to sit but I can’t remember if I did on this one . Okay,I have a LOT of crap to police up before sun sets. Thanks for taking the trip with me,no fun doing this stuff all by myself anymore.
For some that would mean poker, cigars, and whiskey. For me cranking up Led Zeppelin and the Pixies. Then watching Two Lane Blacktop and maybe The Dirty Dozen.
All these Buick parts but a GTO musta snuck back here and marked a spot. Need to save that tricycle also for grand babies maybe one day
"It was the best of times. It was the worst of times..." Im in line for the bell Quasimodo! Seriously, looks like a locomotive bell. I need to hang one for guests to announce themselves by the shop. Keep up the good work Fritzenheimer! Stuff like that is my driving force force keepin' on keepin' on! I do better alone; less distractions. One day theyll find me in the brush too. About 3 days too late LOL... ws
That trike will land you in jail... STEEL???? Thats dangerous. Read Cal. Prop 15. Steel contains lead thats a known carcinogen if you eat it. No seat belt, no jock cup, open wheels that'll get hands and feet caught in and dismembered...NO AIRBAGS on the handlebars. Youll hafta rely on Culpable Deniability. Bill
My parents had me late by "surprise" so didn't get much time with grandparents in Maryland but I STILL remember the day I was in Pap Pap's shop/mancave (Philco shortwave for boxing matches,civil war saber,canteen & spurs found on a deceased civilwar officer who crawled into a small "cave" near my relatives farm) anyhow cool basement in my book. Was a warm day on one visit and he had a fan on,factory built with no or very little blade guard. I asked my Pap Pap "Isn't that dangerous?" his comment? " No! Keep yer damn fingers out of it!" I rest my case
Friztee I hope that's not critter evidence chewed up on the intake... Could mean they made a nest deeper inside. Does that Birmingham bell have a date stamped on it? Looks great!!
Morning Phillip, no the kritterage didn’t get down inside, just made a nest on top that I flung to the side for the picture. I’ll have to look for the date on the bell, but boy I bet all the kids in our neighborhood back in the day knew when it was supper time at the old Hoover 1890 farmhouse house! Or husband down in the barn tending to things.Sure must have beat screaming there names till blue in the face in every direction for meals when kids actually played all over the place outside & were no cell phones These days all we need is a small air horn behind their computer lol
