10 pointsYou were a little ahead of me when I bought mine. She's a worker. Albeit a light one.

10 pointsI picked up this neglected LSE 5 years ago, I mean you should be seen the the amount of dust that was on the hood when I got it 😂

6 pointsI would be afraid of what I'd build with a little moonshine... Quickly followed by @squonk previous gif:

6 pointsThat's interesting. Our spring hunting season opens tomorrow. Gobblers and horse rustlers are fair game.
-
5 pointsTomorrow is NH Maple Day. A local group taps all the town owned trees and donates the proceeds to 7 local charities.
-
5 pointsIt's the 6.2L with over 10:1 compression so there's just no getting around high octane. 10-speed and AFM helps some but the facts are the facts. I can't pull this trailer with a Vega wagon

5 pointsGiven this alot of thought lately. Automotive paint is nice and holds a shine but can be quite brittle. What will make a scratch on many surfaces will chip on Automotive paint with hardener. Rattle can paint is softer, but most scratches are just that. With some work they can be repaired. I painted the V14 with rustoleum + hardener and it still is a bit rubbery several months later. I'm starting to like the durability of it. One thing to note: if your paint gets exposed to long term direct sunlight (think shed with open sides), rattle can won't hold up as well as Automotive. All my machines do some work. They just get exposed to a tougher life than what my truck gets. They get dirtier and far more scratches. At least I can make a decent (sometimes) repair on my tractors.

4 pointsChain case apart today & unmounted tires. Rears are shot but rims really need cleaning up and I have some ags that were on the flame that should work good. . Wasn't gonna take the case apart cause the oil came out pretty clean. Glad I did jack shaft & bearings was plugged solid with old crappy grease. Will take longer to clean everything up. There is no case gasket listed but someone tried to seal it up ... PO or Ponds??? Not sure what do do about the hubs and sure is a mystery why no keyways. The sprocket doesn't look like it was taken off and put on a different axle. The axle and the sprocket are listed as one part in the IPL. Kinda crappy lookin welds if still factory. @jeremi3210 suggest cutting some keys in with a dremel but that might be beyond my skill level. Need to talk with @Shynon yet he's been in a few of these.

3 pointsLast day at the beach house. An anchored ship at dawn waiting for a Bay Captain to take her up river to Philly. Sun Up Fishing for breakfast.
-
3 pointsThe 420 I picked up is in really rough shape also. Hope to spend some time on it this year.
-
3 pointsAgreed - it still takes a month or so for it to cure enough for assembly... And use a trick from my old building model car days from 50 years ago. Warm the paint can in a pan of hot tap water. It raises the pressure in the can - gives a better finish. And it flashes off faster between coats....

3 pointsI have been painting Rust-Oleum in the just below recommended temperatures and its been ok the biggest thing I noticed that causes problems is if the metal you are painting is pretty cold such as colder earlier in the day or the night before and hasn't warmed up enough it doesn't stick very well and gets runs easily. (If possible get the metal as warm as practical, the cans of paint also need to be kept warm) Also it takes much longer to cure. As to your question I would say it's definitely better to wait for both temperature and humidity to be ideal but humidity can cause a disaster if it's too high and the metal is sweating. I would not paint major sheet metal in less the ideal especially the hood, but the smaller parts you will probably be ok if you aren't looking for a perfect paint job. If you want the paint to be really good low humidity and 70° will make it easier

2 pointsHigh humidity will slow the process of "offgassing" where the VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the spray can become trapped in the pint causing it to blush.

2 pointsWhat engine is in your truck? We run premium as well with Mrs. P’s ride but it has the supercharger requiring high octane. Hauling trailers with Norman, I notice better average fuel mileage going to the Big Show than I do to Wisconsin. I’d like to say the turbo builds better boost hitting the hills, and coasts down them. You may be on to something

2 points@Bill D That's okay if the metal plate is gone on the hood. Those could probably be made up at an engraver. That along with a registration card was to be sent back to WH with info what the new owner wanted engraved on it. The serial number was on the fender pan and the number when built as well. Hate to see it go to waste.
-
2 pointsYeah, the 10 speed will shift a lot. I'll stay east of the remains of Helene on I-77 this time. I worked the storm and hated to see that. I fear it won't be the last.
-
2 pointsAll depends on how badly you want to own a LSE. Chrome plating, correctly done leather upholstery and restoration of the LSE only steering wheel would be very expensive. But, if you don't decide to buy it post some pictures and someone on here will want to show it some love.

2 pointsOur experience shows longer. Assembly.... very carefully. A few days. Cured? Man..... 2, 3 months or more. Even then don't expect auto paint type durability.

2 pointsI’m inspired by many things. Parts available, my tools on hand, and sometimes a little moonshine never hurt nobody.
