i tried to pull a s10 blazer out that got stuck right in front of me. no go, not enough HP......

dennis, slowwwwwwwwwwwww the pictures down man.

Glad to know I am not the only one that got a headache from that... OUCH...

[subiemech85]

that is SLOW!!

camera drive mode is 3 frames/sec

stop motion video slowest is 3 frames/sec
other choices are 6, 10, 15

[The Dude Abides]

Dont get me wrong man they were good pictures and it looks like you guys had fun. But they were streamin through so fast i couldnt keep up. Best bet is to just pause it and drag the curser throuth the pictures 1 at a time.

[bheinen74]

hopefully some more people with cams that day will be posting. there were probably about 30 entries of vehicles by guess. I think besides Subiemech85, there were maybe 4 or 5 others with cameras.

OK,. i have April 10 off, but can I still get my GLHB ready in time?:confused:The Brat is gonna take a longer time. unless it get submitted to Overhauling, but then they might just laugh at it and say no way were touching it.
That gives me 6 whole days to fix the brakes(replace the corroded lines) and patch up some holes,
or else i'll be taking on water like the titanic .
I could rivet metal in and cover it with bedliner , but that would only delay the inevitable.
Or I can stay home and just baby my subie.
Anyone know where I can find a decent welder for a decent price?
I grew up with acetylene cutting torches and making precise welds.
I dont know much about migs/tigs, but i hear they are more precise.. .
Using arcs, I typically used a whole stick on 6-8 inches of a weld.
It may be overkill, but the weld held ...

icon overkilll...
