As of 21:45 PoofStalk has offically started with the arrival of Dittle. And sad to say my wife will not be attending as she has gotten the flu and I don't want it so I told her to stay away. I'll be back early morning and staying the night for sure.
Looking at the post above I can't get over how ugly that baby diaper brown paint really is. But here are some picks after a little sandblasting by Poof and some rattle cans of Rustoleum. Sorry guys I just can't swing CARC at the moment. I also kicked out the coons, fixed the lights and put...
I picked my deuce up at Fort McCoy on August 23rd. She is a great running truck with lots of new mechanicals and sheet metal. So far it's been in one parade and I've put nearly 1300 miles on it since I picked it up. However, the paint was ugly and the roof was rusty so I had to do something...
Alright some one asked me the question about food and beverage. Here is the simple answer, I am providing chicken and potatoes for Poof to cook, we ask that everyone brings some kind of a side dish to pass about. Beverage is all up to you. If you want to bring your own burgers or brats or...
Well I did my finger and toe math from all those who responded and I come up with a best guess of 23 total attendies, with those bringing a guest and all. Here is my list so far and if I missed you or a guest please let me know or just add them to the list.
Poof + 3(Or are more kids going to...
I am plannng on getting the food either on Thursday or Friday, so if you going to come please let me know. Also let me know how many are comming with you, boy and girls. That way I can get the right number of girl and boy toys. So far I have a good list, but I need to know if you are you plus...
Well the truck sure isn't air tight. I just fired it up with a few sticks, ok twigs. After the initial burn off the smoke went away from inside the back. Then it got so hot I couldn't stand it back there anymore. There will be no problems for me to stay warm in any weather. Now my only fear...
I am going to pretrip the heater tonight using wood. Gotta make sure there are no visible leaks and that nothing near it gets too hot. Will report later how it all goes.
I did pick up two 12v electric blankets for camping. My fear is that they will drain the batter quick and then I'm stuck. So I figured this was a much better way to go. That and I can't always leave the truck running so the water type heater wouldn't always work.
Well it's all in and the high temp caulk is drying around the stack. Here are some more pics of the install. For those of you who don't know, my truck came with the metal style covering on the back. I decided to keep it for the purpose of a working shop and camping. I used a 4" pvc cap with...
So with PoofStalk comming up I figured I might want to plan ahead and stay warm this time. After the MikeInMcCoy Parade, where I froze my tail off that night, I didn't want to do that again. So I picked up a multifuel hunter style heater from DrGreg and got to work installing it into the back...
