Big Sale Is On - UPDATED 03-26-26
The Big Sale is on but not like originally planned, it is a by appointment type of thing now. Be sure to call before you come to make sure the day isn't already full with peeps scheduled to come in, and make sure what you want is still available.
What's everybody doing?

Been a wilder than ever week around here, sorry not much in the way of updates. Yesterday and Wed were 2 more days of getting out of here after bedtime but all is good...
All but 2 of the transmissions that are still out there in the lot were finished on Tues. The last one was basically brand new inside. It was an old automatic but the hubs got into the case and ruined where the seals go so it couldn't be fixed. It sure had a lot of super nice like new parts in it though.
All of the bad parts and all of the cases so far, and some bad engine blocks that were outside on pallets are all loaded up in the neighbors truck and gone too. The engine with the threads gone in the exhaust was torn down as well because it was not repairable. It's ashamed that was the case because that engine sounded and ran great. When I started the tear down I could see the crank had been turned and it had been rebuilt not long ago.
Now it's on to round 2, getting a ton of engines and transmissions out of the 4 car garage. There are 10 pallets full of them out there. They will be in here by next week. At least progress is being made and that's always a good thing.

Everything is on schedule and should be finished Monday. These pics are from last night and lunch time today. Once the truck was out of the garage things really sped up and a lot was done this afternoon. I planned 3 long days for this and once it's done everything will be together and I'll be able to see anything with a glance. Wood is stacked longer to shorter and every size is together now. When I had to clean out the barn + tractors at dad's Spring of 2025 everything was just thrown everywhere. All 10 pallets of motors and transmissions will be in the shop or somewhere easily accessible before too late on Monday also.
When someone shows up to help and cuts time down by 75% vs just me it's time to switch gears for a few days.

You can lead a horse to water but you can't make him drink.
I can't see the forest for the trees.
