Yup, put the teener up for sale....I have finally have had enough with all the bologna of trying to deal with this nonsense of hurting so much and taking sooo many drugs all the time and not being able to enjoy my car that I may as well just let someone else pick up the project and run with it. I am not givng in to the injuries just trying find some base of life and trying to live a bit. I do plan to lurk around here a bit and watch but I just thought I would let ya'll know that and to say thanks for everything everybody has helped me with in the past!!

Ian, it was a pleasure to meet you last month and it's a shame the curves life has thrown at you. I hope you will not be a stranger and I wish you well.

all the best, T.C.

I am sorry to hear that. I know you have been battleing the pain. I spent 5 years

on morphine, so I can relate to the 'drug and pain comments'. If you need the

money I understand getting rid of it, it can all be replaced. But if it's the "I wish I

could work on it...Damn it" thing, it was visiting my teener and doing "little

things", as I would tell my wife, that helped me feel kind of normal. It's taken me

10 years, but I am out of the wheelchair and moving around "OK".

Hang in there and never give up, it will get better if you work at it...I did. Don't

forget to stop by and say "Hi".

Oh Ian, I forgot to mention, I R & R'd a rear axle in my MB 300cd last weekend,

by myself, and I will be putting in a steering box and tie rods in this weekend. My

point is I did not think I would ever do my own work again. Good Luck.
