I got more done on my custom trailer, I completed the construction of the A frame that I will be attaching to a donor back half frame (when I get it.)

Pics, man I sure love welding

Plated the final corners for the a-frame:

What happened to this thread people? The cold gotten to you?

Well I did 2 things to my truck the past couple of days.
First off, I cleaned off the A frame that I have been working on and took it outside for paint.

black paint:

The second thing that I did was to take off the rest of the old wood bed that I made many years ago. I must say that this thing is HEAVY AS FCUK!!! The frame got lifted back up about 4-6 inches higher than it was with the wood bed on it. The stock bed is bound to be much lighter than this one was.

Frame:

Toying around with some ideas for paint themes on the old bed that is soon to be at the scrapper. Also practicing up my technique before I do it for real.

Got out the 675, rode it 90km north to pick the keys out of the sand that I left them yesterday. (idiot)
Feeling a bit dazed now as it was rather HOT!
Also got chased on the motorway because I was lane splitting!!! WTF? Give it a rest, I'm splitting because the motorway isn't moving and I'm doing it nicely because I did it RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU... and you really think putting on your lights and making a drama about it is the safe option? Well... twist wrist forget about it. Or he just happened to put on his lights as soon as I started splitting and it wasn't related
I know, just don't do it and they won't be tempted right?

Installed junk yard sliding rear window. I changed all the glass in my Cal bug, years ago, so it was fairly painless.

Handy links re: changing truck, back, glass.

Pulled her out of the garage, it was in the mid 50s today when usually it's in the low double digits and feet of snow on the ground. I let it run and pulled her back in.

I prepared a list of things to do but some would disable her so I'll wait on some. Next is replacing all the dash lights and adding new a new light in the ash tray. I'll also add a lights on reminder for the headlights and I'm thinking about a auto-off for my dome lights.
