Hate to go fixing the CobraII it while its' working'. Just happy to drive it
Wife is wondering same thing about house

I said just enjoy the fluffy pink clouds
She said...

just enjoy the dang cloud before it rains on ya or stikes ya with lighting

I'm kind of surprised there isn't any chairs on the deck along with some beverages all set out for her to enjoy those fluffy clouds.

There are!, they is just back under the shade of the trusses a bit.

We did Yakiniku a couple of nights ago outside with the hot Iron
Burning thin meats and dipping in fun sauces

The best part has been my 'shelter in place' spot under the deck with the smoker
I've smoked a bunch of meats lately while hiding under the deck with my reclining deck chair and ice chest
Just got to watch for low ceiling, ha ha
Wife and kids is getting tired of smoked meat so ~Yakiniku.

Daughter has alternated between 'downstairs ' as were calling it and sitting on the roof (for 3 hrs)in the evenings
Hey the ladder is up, why not.
At least she is getting some fresh air every day.

We flew the Koi-no-buri flags for boys day for fun



Now Im making jack scissor trusses for front run
cuse vaulting the inside

first mockup

Heres a Car show morning pic from a few yrs ago
Smell the fresh black paint,
Window louvers are on, no stickers or stripes
Hair aint so grey

Drove the Cobra II around today to run my errands.
On the way home sitting at the stop light and the belt blew, then the car was hard to steer.
Drove the last little bit home before it started to heat up.
Saw first puff of steam on the last block.


Can see some steam coming from overflow

New belt is substantially wider than the old. Old one only lasted from post #228 on Jun17.
Not even a year.
I guess the quality shows.
Just glad it broke on me and not the wife who has taken a recent liking to it.
( her car inspection ran out and she don't wanna drive hers)

My son fixed her up ( so I can drive er, heh heh heh)
There was collateral damage, the belt whipped the washer reservoir when it broke.
So its broke now too.


That filter is starting to come cleaner each time now. But what the hell is this ferrous pebble
and how did the pump push that up passed the thermostat?


New belt in and time for a cruze
