griss' Tank Upgrade Thread

[Dustin07]

2020 6.2L 6 spd manual convertible 2ss. Cars dont have barrels anymore. Leather seats and Bose sound. I drove economy cars and trucks my entire life.
No More

X5 M50i has 100 more HP than the Camaro. 4.4 liter V8 with 2 turbos. Amazing what you can find used if you look. Camaro has 8300 miles. Made no more. Last chance for romance.

Of all the cars I have had, my CTS-V with Tremec 6 spd is the car I miss the most. My new caddi has more bells and whistles, like a backup camera, but I'd trade it for my old V in a heartbeat if I could find the right one, lol. although 30mpg is also nice when you drive 3k / month lol

Thank you. In over 40 years in this hobby, this is my first tank stand with adjustable feet.

I hadn't been getting notifications on your updates! but yeah the adjustable feet... that was a bit tedious and nerve wracking for me.

LOL I have sinned again.

No guns or motorcycles so cars it is. Just a little M2. A pre CAT scan present to myself. Need a bigger garage.

LOL, very nice!

I am not a big gun girl but I do have a youth pump shotgun and a Lady Smith. Other than fish my real love is motorcycles! I only keep 1 at a time though because they are better if they are being used and its too hard to jockey bikes in our narrow garage. Here is my bike. My hubby rides his own but it made for a nice pic!

With Parkinsons you drop the guns and fall over on motorcycles. This was the last one.

I've got a bad feeling about this. A year or so from now, I'll be happy to look back and say I was being ridiculous and things turned out fine.

Cant be too careful.

Doing a lot of holiday cleaning this weekend since we’re hosting Turkey Day. But, I’ve got the boy and his friend working on the framing of phase 2.

I I’m close to getting the stand level but, concerned b/c some of the self leveling feet are a bit rusted?

Also, cleaned the inside of the new tank, if you’ve been following, you might remember the overflow was full of tube worm tubes, I poured vinegar into it and it leaked out. Overflow is not water tight, Pro Clear says that’s by design. Anyway, I cleaned the coralline off the overflow and glass and will seal it better.
