Super Saucer Spin Sledding is GO

Bennet is officially addicted to sledding. It started slow, like most new things, but quickly progressed into me pushing him down the hill as hard as possible.

Then that turned into not only pushing him as hard as I could, but now spinning him as fast as possible.

SuperBuddy Snow Day

The progress on the Mustang is on hold for the winter but that doesn't mean that there isn't some fun goin down.

So, away from the Mustang and bring on the GoPro and the winter fun.

First on the agenda is a little winter fun I like to call SuperBuddy Snow Day. My good friend Ernie (my super buddy) and I both had the day off and wanted to hang out. With about 12" of snow on the ground, we decided to hit the woods on the quads and start a HUGE ASS fire.

ENJOY

Broke down.

November 10th on the way home from work the ol stanger just instantly died. No spitting, no sputters, just dead. Was only about 3 miles from home but shed have to spend the night alone that night.

The next morning was a cold 35° rainy and windy Sunday. So with my pal Ernie and a tow strap we went to get the Lil monster and bring her home. Tow strap worked well, standard amount of tense moments riding the brakes and trying to see through the foggy window and rain to make sure I didn't run info the 2011 F150 Platinum edition that was the tow rig.

We made it home safe and sound that Sunday morning the 11th. And she sat dead in the road until I got a home for it in the garage on the 18th of November.

So, next step. See if i have spark and if the distributor turns and go from there. G'nite.

OTC Yeah You Know Me. Got some new tools in!

Ordered in some new tools for the Lil Monster today. Needed a new jack badly and some new stands. So got those as well as a new engine stand for the future engine build that will come later. Got some random clip pliers, prybars, work lights and other sort of specialty tools that were making from my current arsenal. I gotta say that dollar for dollar, OTC/Stinger makes some super great tools. I've used a ton of aluminum racing jack and this is one of the better ones you can get. And the aluminum stands are amazing!

October 1st 2012, Picked up Project Lil Monster

10/1/12.
My good friend Michael Saathoff picked me up in his '94 Mustang GT Convertible to go pick up the 1995 Mustang GT Convertible that will now be known as Project Lil Monster.

We headed to my fathers house in Waterloo to pick up the car that I had only seen on Craigslist.

Heres a pic of of the car that was posted on Waterloo Craigslist...

Car showed very nice for $2000 Mustang. Door open and closed solid, paint is decent, underside looked clean and NO signs of rust.

Car is stock except for a BBK Off-Road X-Pipe and showed 125,000 miles upon pickup. Trunk had some ball joints in it as well as rear quarter powered speakers for the back seats out of a 96 Cobra.

So, ready to roll out and see if this car can make it the 2 hr. drive home. Fired it up and it sounded GREAT. The classic deep rumble of a good ol 5.0!

Grabbed a quick pick with the two Mustangs before heading out...
