Okay, so the title and SEO don't match the editorial content, and maybe I've put myself on the Mothers Against Drunk Mechanics hit list.


Craftsmanship is a state of mind. If you don't mind how bad something looks after you are done with it, its likely your truck is rough around the edges. Here's a few good tips on how to find a little extra time to do a cleaner job the next you work on truck. Lets start with Sunday evening and you still need to put a set of plugs into your truck. Instead of watching 60-Minutes for the entire length of the show, just watch the last part when that goofy old Andy what's his name comes on and talks about something stupid. Bingo. you picked up 50-something extra minutes to do a cleaner job of routing the crummy universal plug-wire set you got from Autozone. Got an engine with some plugs that are hard to get to? Forget about eating dinner a couple of nights a week. Before you know it your fat little fingers have shrunken in circumference (bet I spelled that wrong) and now you can screw the plugs in easier. You see, there's lots of handy little tips within the pages, and archived on Custom Classic Trucks Website to make your life easier. Take it from me, the moronic magazine editor that left for the office an hour late because he could'nt think of decent subject to blog about. Which brings us to another handy little tip. Instead of leaving for work at 8AM with all the other poor bastards that will be stuck creeping along at 5MPH, leave at 9:30 and there will less traffic and you will be able to buzz along at 90MPH like I like to do. Remember: The sparkplugs you change might be your own. If for no other reason, "do it for the children" (Its not good for them to hear you scream at your wife because your fingers are too fat to pull a sparkplug).
