Hello my fellow GMC nuts!

Today was soooo nice outside. I celebrated by bagging up 12 bags of leaves for the first 4 hours

But then I got busy with my splitter. I painted the ospho'd side and hooked it onto the trailer hitch.

It's sitting next to this beautiful truck now so I can pull in the garage again when it turns cold. I'll tow it back around to the front as I need to weld on it more.

Then I took my acetylene torch and cut some angle plate steel. I also cut a few holes in my fancy file cabinet table.

Then I welded the cut pieces together into a steel plate. Tada! Homemade steel plate! This will be my engine mount. it's about 10 1/2 inches by 14 inches.

After that I had some more yard maintenance stuff to do, but the sun didn't cooperate. It went down and left me hangin.

I did manage to find four bolts that fit this old kohler 14 engine that I'll be using so that's something. They're a little long though. Not sure how I'll fix that yet.
