panhard rod

I made a new rear panhard rod today for the model a I didn't have a left hand tread tap so I had to reuse the old ends, I drilled out a large nut to use as the adjuster, a little welding and some new ends and it should be good.

made a trip to buzz'z













well I made mario and myself made a trip up to buzz'z house on saturday! It was a pretty nice 100 Mile Kruise up there then we met up with Josh and did some go cart raceing until i flipped my cart! lol then Josh decided to work a little of his magic with the camera! His skills are insane! Then I hung out the back of Buzz'z Durango going about 70mph to get some shot of josh on his wicked PanShovel! It was a total blast! Then I made the little over a 100 mile trip home with the ford to drop off Mario then hopped back in the ford to run all the way back out to coal city! I love to Kruise in the "GOLD MINE"
