When the word snow is spoken around here it shuts my part of the world down. Part of it is me I don't have to work in it are work on a car with it on it... I needed a break to repair some of my equipment so started with my tow truck and have it back in good shape got the breaks repaired all the lights working and battery's replaced plus made new battery box's for them. BTW like all fords of this vintage it totes two ignition modules :)

Next Pressure washer this is also my second go round with the unloaded last time was 2009. I could fix it again parts $50 a new valve 80 so put it back together and ordered a new unloaded. Note to self try some type of conditioner when stored are you will be back here again... One of the bolts its has been the same one both times rusty and broke removing it thanks to a welder and a flat washer it came out.

Your gold-colored "coolant recovery tank in the first photo gives it away that you are a "class act"!

I've repurposed a few antifreeze jugs over the years, as coolant recovery tanks, and, after seeing your gold one, that's all I'm gonna use from now on! (Just FUNN'IN 'ya!)

Ah, you noticed it too. :wink:

Haven't seen that done since the 70's, I think. Hmm...what's that old saying....If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Looks to be working OK.
