step one on the "de-grampafication" on my daughter's truck - she helped pull off the tonneau cover, running boards & mudflaps today. Looks way better now - just need to level it with lift keys for the front & get some new slightly larger tires on it -

Parked next to 2_tone_95obs 's gorgeous 95 at the BCHRA show Saturday, and my daughter ended up buying a 97 GMC on the way home lol. Grandpa fresh - needs some of that removed (running boards, mudflaps, fiberglass tonneau cover), then it'll be good (and now up to 5 GMC's ar the house as well as 2 chevrolets cosplaying as GMC's ๐)

Winter be**er maintenance - everyone's favorite task..... Torque converter seal is leaking (badly) so the trans had to come out of the be**er Tahoe. Looks like the converter is newer, so the pump bushing is probably shot (assuming the seal was replaced whenever the converter was changed). Way too much work to fix a leak ๐ (and I really need to get a hoist). On a more fun note - a 3D printed steering wheel adapter for my little bead roller so I can ditch the incredibly inconvenient handle.

Gorgeous day for a car show! The annual Father's Day show had some killer cars & trucks. Since its just a couple blocks from our house, we took my wife's Falcon & Jimmy and convinced my daughter to bring her Cabriolet. Great day at a great car show!

8 or so years after I painted it I figured I should wax the Jimmy for the first time ๐. Quick polish & a wax, some new brake pads and it's good to go. Figured I might as well wash the Falcon & my daughter's Cabby while I was at it......
