To be honest I should have started this a while ago.
Background on the car (condensed version): I bought it out of a field from a tow truck driver who removed from the garage of a house which was being busted by police for drugs. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/stirthepot.gif) The landlord took the car for rent due and called the tow truck to store it and then he disappeared. All we know is the car sat in the field for at least a year and the grass was up to the fender. End condensed version of the background. I have had the car for about 3 years and I am still learning new things each day about it that deserve a (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beer3.gif) or two. Here are some early pics: POR 15 only works if you don't look beyond the surface... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

Not forgotten or sold... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)
School finished up last week and I have been busting my butt trying to get the lawn cleaned up so the fences can be put up and the workshop can be built. Running bamboo is a pain.... The mosquito population is insane and for the record there are no bodies of water in the neighborhood. As long as it doesn't rain for the next 4+ weeks I sense substantial progress. On another note, my parents are closing their office that they have had for more then 25+ years and they have to be out by June 1st. I get to help. Has anyone ever seen what & how much space 20+ years of files take & look like? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) Long story short, they all have to be sorted, shredded or saved according to the rules and all the furniture moved into the main storage. Work, work, work... |
