That doesn't look like enjoyable weather, but if I had been in town, we would have been 2 more. Thanks to all those who went out in the cold and rain that could go out.

The pics don't do justice: there was a thin sleet falling and it was CHILLY

Here is a picture that shows how ugly it was.

From one side of Hickory to the other, the camera was fogged up.

you may be my new leader...that thing is great

Yeh... that is my Mean Green Machine of Tailgating Death. I drove it in high school and college. It was one big rust ball.. with holes in the floor.

Not only is it a money pit, but it may steal your life in the rain. It was sliding all over the place on Denton roads!

It took longer than expected to get it all done. Pretty much everything on it is new. So I had a lot to do when I decided to make it the tailgating machine.

* Floorboards

* Seals

* Chrome

* Lens

* Paint

* Headliner

* Carpet

* Headliner

* All the interior actually (mirror, glove box, oh crap handles, etc etc)

* Disk brake conversion

* Minor engine work ...

* Steering knuckle

* Ball joints

* Wheel bearings

* Tie Rod ends

* etc etc

Still a ways to go, but I am proud of it. I wanted it out at Homecoming. That didn't work. The brakes sprung a leak.. so I had to order a Disk conversion kit. Then that led to all kinds of other work.. So I am VERY happy to have it for the last game.

Next year I plan on having a 4 ft smoker trailer for it. ;)

We'll see how that goes.
