Man, I love this thing, great job

Very cool build

Put me down for a set also. We all appreciate your efforts.

Down around Rogers? We are in South East Kansas and we love going down there several times a year. Beautiful area.

It’s been almost a year again since I last posted. The only thing I’ve had to work on is the pressure regulator in the Sniper. It died on me three times like it ran out of gas. I have a gauge letting me know it had no pressure so I suspected either filters or pump. The pump is almost three hundred bucks so I’m glad it wasn’t bad. Anyhow, she’s running like a champ again.

One of my machines at work is down so I got stuck running only one lathe with a fifteen minute cycle time so I have time to look at CC. I reread my thread and realized it has been over a year since I last posted. I haven’t done much but I did fix the tach issue. It was a corroded terminal in the wiring harness. I wasn’t expecting that. But it’s fixed. The only other thing I did was fix the wipers. After trial and error it ended up being the delay box. I just did away with it. I never have fixed the leak under the dash so I don’t drive it in the rain much anyways. Other than that I drive it a couple times a week to work and that’s about it.

I almost threw two modules away today. I’ve been having intermittent problems lately so I tore into it and discovered they were no good. The high and low work and I rarely drive in the rain since it is so hard to track down leaks. Ya think you got ‘em and……nope.

I was born and raised in Rugby but now live in Kansas.

It will sell. This is a very clean build.

Congratulations, it looks very nice. I bet you were so glad to be done sanding, not many would go that far.

She sounds healthy

What a great read. Keep us up to date.

That’s a good idea, I didn’t know that option existed. Thanks

The USPS is a lot cheaper than UPS. I try to charge as little as possible. I tried shipping some rocker/cab corners recently that I spent twenty bucks bubble wrapping and shrink wrapping and the local UPS shipper told me they couldn’t ship it that way. Still have them because the guy lived ten hours away.

When I was looking for a SBC for my truck I had two guys contact me and I drove to check them out. One drive was an hour. The jerk never showed. Wouldn’t answer his phone. Another guy had a 383 stroker for a good price but he was 3 hours away. I grilled his wife about the condition and she said it was excellent. I drive there and the heads were off and the cylinders were scratched pretty bad. I really considered punching the jerk but he was deaf and his little girl was signing for him and I wouldn’t do that in front of her. I live 6 miles out in the country and I hate driving to town to get a shipping quote. Costs are going up and I’ve really screwed myself a couple times so I’ve started charging what seems to much to some.
