Sounds like @Tkuhn got a shout-out for wiring up this beast.

Yessir! That whole build was kinda under wraps while I was doing the wiring because it was half wrapped and he wanted the color to be a surprise. That was one hell of a wiring project tho.

I dont have many pictures left but this is the chassis harness. Completely removed the OEM stuff and only ran the essentials. Running lights, blinkers, brake lights, headlights. Blinkers worked off a stripped down OEM switch, brakes off the normal brake switch and everything else off the longacre switch panel. Which included a one speed wiper function as well.

Shop Life v3.0 looking pretty lame...

At least there's room to build a house bigger shop.

[straight6pwr]

considering building a new garage would cost more than that, thats like free land.

Thats super cheap land. I bet you cant build on it because of some dumb law.

There was a house there, but it burned down leaving just the garage. I'm sure you could build on it, but yeah I'm sure someone would get bent out of shape if you tried to build a nice shop there. Maybe you could build a "house" on a slab foundation with a large "unfinished" space and a discreetly placed overhead door...

Washing my dads e39 after work today to store it for the winter.  I don't know if I mentioned it before.  It's a '98 528iT, 88k miles.  It's rarely been winter driven so no rust at all.  It has some dings and scuffs but in pretty good shape.  It isn't anything spectacular Biarritz Blue with grey interior.  But they have plenty of cars so no need to drive it in the winter.

At least 75% of that has to do with coaching, and as you can see that's now being resolved lol

Holy crap. I didn't expect them to act on that so soon. I guess we hope that it'll play out or we will be sorry.

No matter what we can only go up. Unfortunately he should have been let go years ago. You can only go so many years coaching well for the first half of a game and not being able to adapt the second half when the other teams coach figured you out.

[straight6pwr]

yeah, McCarthy has been a terrible game manager for a long time. Rodgers and the team were good enough to (sort of) cover up the terrible play calling. 

i have to say though, I was pleasantly surprised when McCarthy went for it on the 4th down near the endzone in the 2nd quarter. Normally he would have pussed out and kicked the field goal.

[suspenceful]

You can tell he knew his job was on the line for the last week or two. I noticed he started to spice up his play calling... going for it on a few 4th downs, some tricky WR runs, etc. But it still wasn't enough. He's a good coach in the grand scheme of things, but it's been time for him to move on. He'll get picked up by another team in no time.

I'll be guy to say it... Rodgers doesn't look much like himself either. Overthrowing balls, making receivers have to reach back/low/high for balls on easy passes, etc.
