Nice 'vette... '77-'79?
Here's my latest:
The compressor was a freebie. I've had it in the shed for about a year. It had a bad motor, but the tank was/is bigger than the one I had.
Swapped on the motor from my old compressor (gave old compressor tank to neighbor. his tank developed a rust hole. thus expediting the fixing up of this one), swapped motor pulley, bought a belt, wired her up and fired her up... works like a charm
Did some cleaning, bought some casters, fabbed up some brackets to hold the cord and hose, and that's how she sits now.
It still needs a new check valve (old one leaks), and a pressure switch (old one doesn't shut off). And I was thinking I'd paint it, but I'm starting to like the patina look of it

I can't keep a pair of pants nice working on bikes all the time, so I buy the cheapies from Wally World. With the price of cotton going through the roof, and everything with cotton going up soon, I just bought a dozen pairs. Less than a buck thirty to my door! ;D

Because I have an addiction...
Its SOOOOO clean though! And the price was right.
I couldnt say no!
Only problem is that I have no idea if it will fit. The guy didnt know what size it was. So... When I get it Ill try it on, and if it doesnt fit, Ill post it here for sale with measurements.

Yesterday was a weird and kinda expensive shopping day.
Pan Seared Tuna (pre packaged servings from the supermarket)
For my two children...
For me...
And for dinner, my dumb ass went stupid and ordered $40 of this to go:
And then my aspiring fat ass ate it all in one sitting. And it was ridiculous good.
Then I was sittind around watching TV and thinking about a rare gun at a local gun store that I heard about. So I figured I would go check it out, and see if there was anything to it. I went and ended up walking out with a classis (not rare) gun.
Its a Ruger 10/22 .22 rifle. This is something every boy should have at some time when growing up. And since I have never had one, and I am still growing up, and they are relatively cheap...
Yay! Now I have one!
No more spending money for me until March 5th, when I'll be buying tater tots and PBR, and watching the Psycho DeVilles play at Dixie Tavern. YAY!

the tuna is bought seared? I don't even understand how they can legally sell that.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scombroid_food_poisoning
Tuna should be kept on ice 100% when its uncooked (which would include seared since its raw in the middle.) Once heat has been applied to it and its not fully cooked it should be eaten asap. Searing it and then packaging it is possibly the worst way to handle tuna possible.

Put some metal in yer eye....
I'm digg'n it Joe. the fenders rad
nope just did the coating on it... it is made by bub called the lakester... the tech from bub told me that with my build on my motor if i do not clear at least 101hp that he would buy the pipe back off me and pay for my dyno! ha ha ha pretty lofty talk! i am stoked to get this on there... not all the look i like (love my current pipes) but i want that little extra UMPH!

Bub's exhaust is good people. Friend of mine put there system on his Yami Vstar Classic. They gave great support when he was having a tunning issue. And even offered a full refund, if he could not resolve the issue. I also had a Bub's slip on, on my Roadstar Warrior when I had it.
