HOW March 8th Mayhem - post pics here! (oh and Roll call!)

fjcruzer · 03-08-2008, 11:20 PM

More to follow, but a few to tide you over!

***********EDIT - Inserted by Molly***********
Hey all, I think we had over 26 rigs throughout the day! Post your pics, and at least a pick of your truck with your screen name and your real name... cuz we have a lot of new members and it's hard to keep track of who's-who!

Oh and thanks to those who donated to the tip jar of food.... and helped work on trucks even if they didn't have a project themselves! w00t!

SON OF A BITCH.

I ALWAYS end up looking like a dork in some picture. Look at the pic of Molly and Layton (sorry if i got that spelling wrong). Stuffing my face.

Ah well, if i was going to look bad, at least it was done while enjoying really good food.

AxleIke · 03-09-2008, 08:19 AM

Oh, and molly, hope your neighbors aren't coming over and trying to lynch you today!!!! LOL

AxleIke · 03-09-2008, 08:27 AM

Anyone else get suburned like no other?

My arms and neck are RED!!!

LOL.

Guess I really fit into Molly's neighbor's idea of us. REDNECK.

spindleshanks · 03-09-2008, 08:54 AM

Man, a lot of stuff got done yesterday! A lot of big projects. But we didn't kill the jeager. I'm so ashamed.

Firetacoma · 03-09-2008, 09:40 AM

Good to meet all you freaks!

I had a great time... I showed up to heckle and ended up helping to lift a truck (unless his wife asks, then it was just new shocks).

Don_G · 03-09-2008, 11:50 AM

Here's a pic of the Warn control box install. Thanks again for all your help!

High and tight and fully protected! Nice.

ike · 03-09-2008, 01:19 PM

was a great time, wish i could have stayed longer than i was able to.

FattyB · 03-09-2008, 01:30 PM

Andrew, thanks for the help man!

Really made it simple with you doing most the work

But ya, you made it go really smooth. BTW truck rides amazing! Handles real well, bumps are nothing, and going 80 on I-25 was soooo much better, actually drives straight now!

FattyB · 03-09-2008, 01:31 PM

And about the wifey...it's already on, so now it's a lift

Don_G · 03-09-2008, 02:18 PM

Here's, me lounging around as usual.

Username - Don_G. My real name is .... Don!

Here's my truck:

ziggy428 · 03-09-2008, 02:55 PM

Even, though I didn't have anything to work on, thanks again guys for doing this. (Even if it makes you unpopular with the neighbors.

)

Were you welding without protection again Isaac???

Lysmachia · 03-09-2008, 03:40 PM

Oh and THIS explains EVERYTHING.....

Quote from Andrea "Should I do a Keg Stand?"

"Might as well"

It was AWESOME to see Andrew (on the left) next to his truck. AKA FireTaco but in my book will always be Firemantaco... he goes back to way old skool cottora. Thanks for coming Andrew!

I love it How Eric's stuff (aka FJCRUIZER) is neatly laid out.

Um Kevin (aka Poorboyota)... It doesn't work that way!

How many guys does it take to do a timing belt? 6! 5 to stand around and one to actually do it!

AGAIN A HUGE Thanks to Andrea and Julie for helping me cook, without their help you guys never would have eaten!

Quick Draw · 03-09-2008, 04:11 PM

My truck is the one on the left:

And I don't have a pic of me really...but I'm the youngin' with the dog....so I'm pretty sure I was noticed...

ike · 03-09-2008, 04:33 PM

I am the guy in the previous pictures posted with the quote "old skool" with my 79 DD.

coheliview · 03-09-2008, 06:56 PM

Man, it looks like everyone had a good time. Wish i could have been there to meet you all. The good this is that there will always be another time

. Atleast i'm not getting sick anymore.

Blowntaco · 03-09-2008, 07:08 PM

This is the truck and name is Darryl- Sorry to everyone that I couldn't stay longer, Mom straight out of the hospital and it was my weekend with my girls so I guess priorties had to take hold on that. At least I got the pics that youv'e been looking for Molly. Again thanks for everything

Avsfreak1234 · 03-09-2008, 08:24 PM

It was great to have you down as always!!!! Thanks for coming up!

colorado125 · 03-09-2008, 10:01 PM

And too bad I had to leave. Need to get the keg from you guys soon. Anything left in it at all?

fondigley · 03-09-2008, 10:06 PM

Thanks again to Molly and Troy for letting the HOW happen. And especially Molly for keeping us fed through out the day. It was a spectacular display of our Association (club or whatever you want to call us).
And I am extremely happy with my slider project finally getting finished after months of procrastination. I especially thank those who helped with the

. I owe you guys greatly. I did get my weld on, but only for a minute.

My project started out with a quick check to see what we needed to do:

Kevin and Troy took on this project like their own:

Those two have mastered the weld:

They bossed me around and ordered me to keep a grinder in my hand at all times:

This was prolly after they saw my welding skills.

We had to do a little extra fabricating and welding thru the night. Eric got pics of me grinding at about 8 in the dark. I think we finished welding the sliders on at about 9 after reseting the circuit prolly 20 times.

Today was the first time I could really see the work.

They look fine from here:

Driver side weld:

Passenger side weld or should I say the easy side:

Thanks again for your help.

Today I proceeded to paint them to match the bumpers:

As well as touching up some rust on the bumpers and body:

Purty looking bastards:

Done with that crap:

Can't wait to see what happens at the next HOW.
