Streamlining the process

Posted on January 23, 2019 by

A bit of a shift in the workload, as I’ve just made an agreement (with deposit) to sell the 1972 Airstream Ambassador. The travel trailer was an ambitious project, to say the least. Originally I’d planned to make it into … Continue reading →

Mad dogs & Englishmen

Posted on July 2, 2018 by

Last Saturday was over 100° F outside, fortunately I spent the day in Monterey playing airsoft not far from the ocean, so I only experienced high 70’s. That Sunday (the 24th) however, was in the high 80’s, and I spent … Continue reading →

End of year post

Posted on January 1, 2018 by

I’ll start with the broken record: work’s been busy, plenty of other around-the-house projects keeping me busy, and despite months of therapy and a cortisone shot right into my shoulder, my right shoulder still has limited range and plenty of … Continue reading →

Some Updates for you fine folks

Posted on October 3, 2017 by

Hi! Still alive! Figured I’d post up some updates on the various vehicles. First and foremost, the Morgan. Unfortunately that has stagnated again, much to my chagrin. I know what I want and need to do next (pull apart the … Continue reading →

Still Alive~

Posted on April 28, 2017 by

The cake isn’t a lie. (Sorry if you don’t get that one, game industry joke.) So, what’s been happening. Well, as I mentioned in my December post, my father fell and broke his arm. What’s happened since then is that … Continue reading →

Winter Solstice

Posted on December 20, 2016 by

Wikipedia lists an alternate term for “winter solstice” as “hibernal solstice”, which I definitely think is an appropriate title. I am generally not a fan of cold weather work, especially so being a Californian, and ~45 degree F midday temps … Continue reading →

Good Guys

Posted on September 4, 2016 by

Past week’s been an enlightening one. I’ve come across some potential upgrades for both the suspension and lighting (LED headlights!) that could come in to play, but more importantly I’ve finally had a chance to meet with another local owner. … Continue reading →

Status Report, Mid-August 2016

Posted on August 15, 2016 by

Sorry for a few months’ silence, been busy. We’ve been spending a number of our weekends on house remodels and such, but I’ve got updates for the MogRod and some other things. First, the Airstream. That’s picked up again, since … Continue reading →

Measuring up

Posted on February 19, 2016 by

Well, been asking around for the past while, and so far no luck on getting any kind of external resources for the Pontiac’s drivetrain mounting information. Polaris wouldn’t divulge info, Pontiac wouldn’t divulge info, and even GM’s Archive wouldn’t say … Continue reading →

Polar opposite

Posted on September 9, 2015 by

Time to blow some cobwebs and dust off the old site. The Airstream’s been coming along decently, at the point where I’m getting ready to pull back out most of the interior to lay down new flooring. But you don’t … Continue reading →
