Default What are we doing this 3-Day Weekend?

What are you guys doing this long weekend?

Today I'm starting to modify my DD's suspension. I'm installing a SVT suspension with bigger sway bars, new rotors, steel braided lines and Hawk HPS pads. Motor and manual tranny oil and fuel filter.

Tomorrow, thinking about a cruise and GTG in Orange County.

Monday, TBA

Heat up garage to work on the 67 FB.

Install LED bulbs for brake/tail lights, interior, gauge's, turn signals, fog lights, and hood mounted turn indicators.

Then drink Shiner Black and watch the NFL playoffs.

Monday- TBD....

Went junkyard scavenging. Found a few parts for one of my old trucks. Hung out with my buds. Sat on my azz trying to look important and failed miserably.

Almost forgot... I might start ripping the rear end out of the race car. That's not a job I am looking forward to.

Cool Charlie, I saw it a week ago then I watched the original and John Wayne fans are going to blow up but, I think the new one was better.

John Wayne was a good actor and he is overrated.

I always wondered how the feds went from 10 days off a year to 11 when they added MLK, but a quick check shows they stole your Friday after turkey day. This was what the controversy in AZ was about 20 years ago, they didn't want to shuffle existing holidays around.

I'll be working.
