Radrambler Project Is Starting Over !!!!!!

[radrambler]

WOW
NEVER THOUGHT ID BE POSTING THIS

finally, i found a job..start tommorrow writing service for a toyota dealer.
not my dream job but it doesnt matter now .i just need a paycheck coming in.
since selling almost everything but the rolling shell and the new exterior goodies for the car im gonna go a different direction. i have had alot of time to look at the car..not good , because i want to rework almost the entire floor of the car .i have to buy a bead roller.
the car has crap for ground clearance i wanna push the motor/trans up and back in the car .i need more room for exhaust and i dont like the way i did the tubs/shock mount /rear floor of the car ... i have learned a ton since starting this project and have picked up many ideas from all of you guys . steel prices are pretty good and i might as well try and go for it..
it wont happen tommorrow but it will happen. maybe give me a month...

Good to hear about the new job Tom!! I just went over 21 years in the AF a couple of weeks ago and originally thought I would get out after 20. I think I will try and hang in there for another year or so with the job market the way it is.

ty--thanks
chris--thanks, depends on what career you want after your service...but i can understand staying in for a short time just to see what gonna happen with the economy(my prediction...nothing good based on the new govt).

thanks

Congrats on the job find Tom! In this economy it is really hard to stay motivated but just keep coming back here and we will do our best to cheer ya up!!!

Just read through the whole thread. You've obviously been through hell and I can only wish you the best of luck in the future!

to all that have responded to my thread .....THANKS

the support from all of you makes a difference.
never thought id be in this situation...i know most are here to enjoy cars and the hobby but kinda feels like a family of good people that give support no matter whats being talked about...i have no ego, so i probably add more of my life in here than really anybody cares to read .
somehow "life" keeps getting in the way of building cars...

I was very disappointed when the project came to an end. But am very glad that you have found new employment and the rambler will continue on! I too just found a solution for my lack of employment!

Chris, I'll hit 24 in Oct and feel exactly the same way! I thought I was going to retire last May and am now planning on staying until HYT in 2013... unless I screw up and get promoted... then I'll stay for 30!
