## Brake Bisectors! So, at the end of the last installment, I said I was going to look at the brake bisectors. Well, I did that. Read more…

## November 2016 Okay, fine, I'll go deal with the fuel-toilet...

I'm doing a lot of mix-n-match with what's on hand, or at least easy to get, or isn't original but gets me some other feature that I want. Y'know, more resto-mod than restoration. It's all part of the fun! And if someone else later down the line wants to go full restoration, that's cool too. Anyway, I finished picking holes in the roof. Read more…

After the disaster that was starting the truck to get it out of the workshop, using a bit of steel bar to bridge the contacts on the starter switch, I decided that maybe it was time to start doing some of the re-wiring.

But, that's why I got this truck; it's a bit of a playground and learning experience. :D

Yes, it's been nearly a year since my last post, shush. Shit's been hectic. Have some potatographs.

My last post left off with me dumping a broken garbage-truck at the workshop. Unfortunately, it was still there when I got back in the morning, so I supposed I'd best fix it. The day was to bring plenty of fault diagnosis and headscratching, but the first order of business was to take it out back and shoot it jet-wash out the slime that inevitably builds up in and on refuse collection vehicles.
