Hi, Ray P. Did ya miss me. I posted a few weeks back before my computer took a dump. The post was about the removal of the fridge and funace, and the cabitetry around them. Did ya see that post,Ray ? Anyhoo; it was fairly easy ,and I did not do very much cussing during the removal. ( The amount of cussing and cursing done during a prodject is a good indicator of how hard or easy or frustrating the job is. It also is a good way to warn smarter freinds and relatives to stay away. The not so smart ones always have to come over to you and ask what is wrong, when it is obvious what is wrong...... Yer havin' a sh*t day an' nuthin's goin' right.... GET AWAY FROM ME !!!!! GRRRRrrrr BANG, BANG,SMASH, SMASH, @#%&*, @#%&* !!! ahhhh...now I feel better) ahem... Now the in side of my Cruiser is empty and cavervous. (I can almost hear the echo when I shout Hello) The past few weeks have been hidiuosly hot. The little creatures with the pitch forks are runnin' around. Been saving on gas costs by cooking on the driveway pavment. And lounging in the pool on my days off from w*rk and staring at my 25ft oven on wheels from the comfort of my pool. I while I am in the pool I daydream about working on my '53. Then I get out of the pool with cool, refreshed , viggor and determination. I go over to the Cruiser open the door, hop in,and choke on the intense heat , while franticly opening windows. By this time , I'm drenched in sweat,and my head and face are throbbing it that way only activity in extream heat can cause. Back to the pool and more daydreaming about workin' on my Criuser. So, Ray P, (and everyone else) I did not give up nor did I sell my tin Twinkie. Progress just slowed a bit. I've also been very bussy at w*rk, hence not much energy when I get home. Yesterday I cleaned up the fridge and frunace. The furnace was kinda cruddy inside. It looks like the burner was not adjusted right, so there is very much soot. I just flushed the heat exchanger out with some water. Today I plan on taking the furnace compleatly apart and cleaning and repainting everything. I doubt the heat exchanger has any cracks.(it holds water quite well) As I said in a previous post the furnace was quite clean alreadythis has been easy so far. The next part of my resto job will be removing the belly skin and insulation. Then inside to remove the lower pannels and prepair for removal from the frame. Until next time kidds..............Trike #5384
