Getting an Exhaust (9-30-18)

on Wednesday, 21 November 2018. Posted in adrenalin fix

When I first bought Adrenalin fix it had this giant dual exhaust mess that someone had spent a good amount of time bending and welding and looked basically new. It stretched from the header collector flange all the way back up and over the rear axle and out under both bed sides behind the rear wheels. This was WAY more than I would ever want to have. So, I decided to remove this monstrosity and stash it for later. You never know what it could be used for…

Wiring Day 2 (4/18/14)

After a little work in the shop on some of the Triumph Foundation's "rehab" chairs, I attempted to charge forward on the wiring again and some odds and ends cleaning on the engine.

Back at it. Finally! (12-5-15)

After a 6-month hiatus from my “mistress” due to a long hospital stay and 4 major surgeries, I am back at it. FINALLY! I put my foot down, so to speak, and proclaimed, “I am working on my truck today!” I hopped in the trusty Volvo and headed north thru wind, sleet and snow.. Ok, really just traffic on the 210 freeway, but still..

Wiring Day 1 (4/16/14)

on Wednesday, 21 November 2018. Posted in adrenalin fix

Today I went over to the shop to start to tackle the spaghetti otherwise known as engine and transmission wiring harness. It sure is a good thing I am Italian, because otherwise I would REALLY hate all that noodly mess.

Long Overdue Update (9/2/14)

on Wednesday, 21 November 2018. Posted in adrenalin fix

I figured that I owed everyone a good, DETAILED update on the truck build, as my last couple were short and sweet to say the least. I have been working rather diligently over the past few month on getting this truck on the road. I have stripped my time and intentions down to just getting the truck running and driveable. I have decided that the “pretty” can wait until a later time. I just want to be able to drive my truck already, and for it to be able to do the job it yearns to do, hauling gear to all the good little boys and girls.

Bed Side Day (4/7/14)

on Wednesday, 21 November 2018. Posted in adrenalin fix

So, today I decided to head over to the shop and start mocking up some of the body panels on Adrenalin Fix to take a tally on what parts I do and don't have in order to see what parts I still need to purchase.
