The Truck Guy

Cold start on Herman. 20degrees is definitely not ideal, but he fired right up. Putting the big guy up for sale before we move the operation down south!

Finally finished rebuilding a truck engine into a Mercruiser 5.7.

Working on a variety of things these days. Finished up the K.I.A. Memorial Camaro engine, and got the donor 5.7 engine up on the stand. Now to prep it and swap out all the merc parts to make it an actual boat engine.

Bought an abandoned boat, after just seeing a few pictures. Looks like a win so far. Just needs cleaned, head gaskets, and a starter

Took an award for outstanding special interest with my dump conversion M1088 (Hermon 2.0). Makes my blistered, bruised and bloody hands feel a little better!🤣

Well, it was definitely a task, but it’s back together, and now it dumps! I’m going for versatility with Herman 2.0. Making ramps to haul ATV’s, a snap together chipper box to go on top, and a camper pod that slides onto the bed.

Burning the midnight oil on Herman. Trying to finish it up for Buffalo Motorama! Going to be a nail biter, having only 2 hours Thursday morning to get it all bolted down, and the rear hinge welded on.

Had to wake up Herman from hibernation! I have 3 weeks to install the dump, and put the bed back on for motoramma!
