You woulda thought huh? I got a oil leak now i think (hope) it is the #6 valve cover gasket. It is leaking right by the bell housing, but i have not crawled under it to check it out. I also got my front wheel bearings in to day so i will probably work on it tomarrow. It was $275 plus shipping. I priced it at all the local parts stores and it was roughly 400 bucks.

Well I am in the middle of the state, so that works out well. I'll talk it over with the little lady and see when she would want to have a group over. We do alot of car club get togethers. So it is nothing new. I don't have a monster shop or anything fancy. Just the basics. You guys are welcome to bring a project or two. Will give us something to install or tinker with. I do have a mini Dodge truck museum anymore around here. So there is tons of project trucks laying around to play with. Let me here some ideas on what you guys would want to do, and I'll try to make it happen.
Anyone have a date in mind?

Patriot Auto, do you know Scott and Lewis Wurth? I used to drive OTR for them. They live over there around Beason Il. It would be cool to get something together here once the weather turns half way decent.
