Drag season.

Well, as most of you don't know Jerry and Jeremy Lawson. I came to the conclusion that you dont know that they are big drag racers in the community. Along with my grandpa, but he retired from it a few years ago. But anyway, since there wasn't much buisness coming through the doors this week. We decided to go ahead and get Jeremy's 1970 chevelle ready for the strip, along with a couple other small things around the shop. This year's new rules and regulations, which i'm not to fond of, were just a pain to abbide by. But we ended up getting it done anyway. after fabricating a whole new cage, and after Jeremy had his whole chassis redone for the new regulations, which was done a few weeks ago. The chevelle was ready, along with some new tires which he put on a couple days ago. After we finished with the chevelle, we went ahead and did a motor swap in two of Jerry's cars. Which if your wandering, he has an 82, 86, 96, 97, and 98 chevy truck for plowing snow, a 70 gold gs stage 1 like my grandpa's, and a 71 white and red gs. Along with a 79 regal, an 06 duramax, 82 Ford Van, and a 7.83 second quarter-mile s-10, which is what he races. But anyway, we swapped the 455 big block buick motor out of the GS and put it in the regal, and took the 350 SBC out of the regal and put it in the GS. Which wasn't fun at all. It ended up taking most of the night, so by the time we got done. We had missed dinner. So we finished up what we were doing and went ahead and and headed out to the family restraunt to eat a bit before we headed back to the shop. When we got back it was around 9 o'clock, and Santana and Aiden were there waiting for us. So of course the first thing that happened was Aiden was running to his dad yelling daddy over and over again. Which then led to him asking me what this and that was, which is funny because he likes to call me brandy instead of my actual name because he really hasn't figured it out yet, but I really dont mind. After we sat down and talked for a little while, we realized that we still had a few more things to do before we could call it a night. So we went ahead and threw a tub of oil on the forklift and moved it over the furnace, where we undid the cap and flipped the lever to let the oil drain out. After that we went ahead and started to clean everything up and put all the wrenches and tools up, along with the welder and all the left over sheet metal and brackets that we used to build the roll cage for the chevelle. Then since we hadn't done it in a while, we sprayed down the floor and the lift with the hose that's ran into the building, then we swept all the water into the drain. Then we said our goodbye's and called it a night.
