Crazy week... From a 66 T Bird to a 2011 F150. A test light on one and a scanner on the other. But, both with the same problem... no pwr windows. It's amazing how the technology has changed. What's next? wireless windows???? LOL

Finished the last of the electrical and mechanical on the 56 fire/rescue truck I've been working on... go to my website or to my facebook page you can see more pictures of it. After it's painted I'll post more. Next stop Paint.

Finished up the next video for Dayco Products. This time I was the guy doing all the talking... pretty neat gig. Don't know how it will turn out, it's going to take a bunch of editing. It's not so much being in front of the camera as it is trying to get all the words they want in one take. Really takes some practice to get this down. Hopefully the next bunch I do will keep getting better and better.

first full day at the shop, even though it really gets old dealing with the car problems, I sure do like getting back to the shop and do what I do best even after a week off. I'm going to be a terrible retiree .. gotta be doing something...

First sleet/rain/snow mix of the year and the cars are finding the ditches all over town. And...the first one in my neighborhood... my boy. Took the pass. side outside mirror and the crushed the door, but other than that it's all fine. Wonderful way to start the season off.

From the time I open the doors til' the time I close them I've been super busy the last couple of weeks. I know it won't last... school starts in a few weeks, I don't know why but that always slows the shop down. Enjoy it while ya can I guess.

FYI, I've been running a chat on Sunday nights at 7:00 pm till 8:00 CST. It's an informal chat about cars with other pros across the country. I have never brought it to the attention of ASO... but I thought this might be a great way to speak to each other. Join me if you can @ http://www.gonzostoolbox.com/CHAT.html see you there.

Good day for me... got the last of the sheathing on the roof of my porject, and got part of the eaves done... WHOO HOO! Now if somebody would show up to help put all the shingles on.. ugh, what a pain... I'll be glad when all the roof work is done.

Had a rather interesting week. Hardly any work, the big lift blows a seal, and the heater goes out at the house. wonderful ...

Had an interesting day. I taught at a local technical (automotive section) college today. Showed them how to do a parasitic draw test with a volt meter, how to read and understand relays, and how to find a back feed on an electrical circuit. Really cool... hope to do it again.
