So, now I'm a little confused and not sure if I should ever believe anything you say around here.


BTW, nice work my friend


Thank you.... I think.


Truth be told - I don't join in on all the techno discussions around here... I'd rather just stand off to one side and lob a grenade once in awhile. I try to help the less experienced guys if I can and stay out of the stuff that doesn't require my input.

I kinda chuckle to myself when people are surprised that I can use my shed... I think "really?.... Did you really think I invested all that time and effort and $$ for that kind of stuff and not know just a little bit about what it takes to do the work too?"

This is where I get the skills from.... owning "smart" tools!

Thanks Cris!


I kept telling Rudy that I was just trying to protect my sister... I wanted her to have a safe car to drive. HAHAHAHAHAHA


It's all about just giving back... whether a guy has the skills and helps someone - or has parts that aren't being used and never will be - or a little extra dough that would make a difference in someone else's life....

To me -- it's like volunteering at the RTTC events etc. Without volunteers - we have no events.

It was there last night. Pam (my sister) drove it to work and then to Beaches. Rudy says they've put 300 miles on it since Sunday.

My '32 spent that many miles on a rollback...

I told them to just take the car and enjoy what's left of the summer - and in the meantime to start finding someone that will do custom carpet - door panels and the back seat.... Mostly because there's nothing uglier than a "standard" '69 Camaro interior in a "hot rodded" version.

After that -- I wash my hands...


I don't think those Marquez panels will clear his door bars --- but I guess you'll find out tonight.
