So I decided to take a look at my DV's for the heck of it since I had suspected a few of being sticky before my pump "died"... Well turns out the copper washer under the #6 DV was very seriously broken and the #2 and 5 DV's were a little hung up.

So needless to say, parts are on their way and I'm kicking myself for not looking at that before looking for another pump and parking the truck a month ago. So all this time I've been practically hitchhiking to work and towing my tractor around with my fiancé's 96 1500 short box 318 5spd. Not to mention we just moved the other day and really could have used the long box for hauling boxes....

Well enough of my ranting and either way I'm still pretty darned happy to get back in my truck.

 

That mean you are keeping your tractor?

Hope so man, that thing is nice!

Also, lets hoist our glasses to the P7100, long may she reign.

 

Heck yes I'm keeping my tractor now... That thing has been running strong all season and it's actually been making me money this season with all the firsts I keep taking; $75 for each first place every weekend makes for a nice little kick in the wallet when you can't work too much (friggin disability).

Thanks for the complement on the tractor, I never get tired of all the complements I get for it; it was my first painting project. So it was what my grandfather taught me to paint on and it will always remain a memory of him when he passes on, as well as every other tractor I have painted in the last few years.

I'll hoist a glass to the P7100 as well (can't afford not too)

 

THats great...I'm also going to restore my late grandfathers 1948 Massey Harris...He bought it new in the 1948 and never been out in the rain...
