Rust. Heat. That loving sun. Why the gently caress did I take this job?

Sweat in my eyes again. Stings. Asbestos dust packed under the ragged stumps of what once passed for fingernals.

Keep it together. What day is it? So confused.

God drat i'm hungry.


Smoke drifting through the field. Cooking. Oily smoke. Meat. Truck.

Truck? Yeah, still there. Couldn't get it off. Couldn't break it loose. Got stuck here. Where the gently caress is here? Where the gently caress are the others?

Hammer feels funny. Kinda slippery. Kind of sticky. Smells wierd. Smells like meat. What's with the sun, anyways? Brake failure? What was....something...failed.

Great sound, wasn't it? Wait, what sound? Wet. Crack. Like a melon, but harder. Heh.

Hammer's slipping out of my hands again. Man that's red. Truck ain't red though. Truck's green. Yep, still green.

Mostly.

Where the gently caress'r they? drat that smells good. Good old barbeque.

poo poo's hot.

Food's hot.

Let's eat.

So since I don't have to worry about rent, a couple hundred bucks in side jobs will handle the rest of my storage and bills.

How does AI feel about throwing in on a guzzoline fund for the last of the V6 Interceptors loaded with every last tool I can fit.

Book time says 20 hours to Nebraska.

Has anyone considered the legal or ethical ramifications of a Camaro from Seattle and a cop car from Florida just happening to meet in Nebraska?

There isn't a single government agency or insurance company on this planet that would sign off on what happens out there.

See I neglected to inform him that my mentail tiers were random bumfuck card filled out with whatever the dicks minutia had in store, the letter for ~$25-30 which in my mind kind of falls into "found improvised writing or drawing surface technically able to be sent via standard postal services and good luck interpretating what arrives," the $50-60 art trinket which would be a mystery until it arrives save for the fact that it involved off mission on clock trophy hunting, the Pistons and rods, and maybe a 1 or 2 available Immortan tier $100~150 war relic. I haven't really planned much out aside from the bottom levels being honestly geared a little more towards putt by i5 in the gas tank and supplies, the trophies would actually have effort into making them unique mementos, and if AI seemed open to the alpha trim I'd want them limited to one or two because those are going to need to be halo efforts.

Basically I'm saying I no loving idea how to make a 25 dollar letter and a 35 dollar art trinket have enough value differation to warrant the split.

I will still offer to mount the tires while KNOWING AND RESPECTING THE TRAJECTORY DANGER ZONE. Also since my little joke farted out, I'm working on uploading and posting the bonanza of '53 6400 reference photos I took. Originally came with a 16 foot bed as the OP, cut down for size. It's actually a hilariously tiny truck considering what it is.

Odds are possible the shoes won't need to be sourced yet if enough meat is left, they'll be riveted on with the organic friction material so no delamination issues. To even check though requires pulling the axle as its integrated with the drum. Other check now issues, finding out sources for the radiator and gas tank specifically, as the guy said he had had issues with both of those and I'm betting there are no easy solutions if required.







Unless it's been modified it has vacuum powered wipers btw. Check if it has turn signal indicators as I know for a fact a guy I talked to with a late 30s or some year 40s chevy had a single brake/running lamp in the rear and the way the turn stalk is attached here makes me wonder. VW used semaphore indicators until 53 in the USA and like ~57-59ish in Europe so thats something worth looking into.
