adsm08 4,186 #9301 Posted Friday at 01:21 AM (edited) So back in early November a deer was kind enough to kill my beloved Escape, without having the decency to die itself, forcing me into using our Explorer, which was not bought to be a daily vehicle, as my daily driver. I sold what was left of the Escape for parts about a month ago, and then had to use the money as a slush fund for some other projects, which are now complete. But not being of a mind, or financial position, to lose another vehicle to something as dumb as a deer hit this year, and also still regularly needing to use the detour that had me over in deer country until September, I got on eBay.. It's actually pretty well built. Sticks out a little farther than I'd like for appearance reasons, but not farther than the mirrors. Would have been nice if it came with instructions though.

adsm08 4,186 #9302 Posted Saturday at 10:07 PM Busy busy weekend this week. Last night was girls' night at the school. It used to be the father/daughter dance, but they changed it because some girls don't have dads. This morning was hunting/dog run, followed by car work, then date day/shopping with the girls. Took my daughter ice skating for the first time, I like wheels better. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 77,258 #9303 Posted 11 hours ago Got this mostly finished and on display: Click the pic... The Peterbilt is mostly a kit. Testor's metal 1/28 scale. The cab guard and frame plates are added. Other things moved around. Sleeper removed. Black trailer also a kit from the same series. Wheels moved back. Landing gear moved forward. Otherwise box stock. The two Hess trucks are from the 1970s. Collector pieces. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ebinmaine 77,258 #9304 Posted 3 hours ago The BBT has been ridiculous busy as usual. She started doing a second position for the hospital. Accounts Payable. This afternoon we moved the main backyard gate from "open out" to "open in". This makes it easier for us to move snow and also keeps the dog from the possibilities of pushing through the gate. Trina's also been busy for several days replacing the floor in her momma's kitchen. They didn't like the way the other (plastic fiber fake wood) things were laying down. She and her momma put down a 1 x 10 pine floor. Leftovers from the barn build. Polyurethane will be applied soon. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
