Been taking down a ton of trees. I think the total count is up around 21 so far with another 2-3 left to go. I've been cranking on this because the town is picking up the brush as quick as we can put it out there because of that freak winter storm we had.

Messed with a Park Ave again. Still not sure what the heck it'* issue is. Pulled a GTP motor and built up a new one this weekend. Dropped the new one in. Now I need to finish it off and the next car comes in.

Mounted new belts in my truck. Then unmounted them and coated the inside of my truck with something similar to rhinoliner. Also coated my fender wells.
