Yesterday was one of those days:
The boys had a hockey game at 10:15 (let me tell you how nice it is to have them on the same team for once....) and after the game we went down to the shop to clean up a little, I posted the pictures of the shop/tech day while they swept and loaded up JTS' welder and Shane's Extension cord. Once the shop was back in glass shop shape, off Drew and I went to deliver those tools. Dan went on home.
Riding over to Shane's house, with Drew driving - 3 different times we received comments and "thumbs up" then between Shane's and JTS's we were tooling along 470 and this new Camaro goes blowing past us -
from both the driver and passenger. That was mutual. Silver camaro, looked pretty good to me.I looked at Drew and he was grinning ear to ear as he is driving along.
There is a thread right now on CB.com about the love/hate some have with their rigs. Love to drive them, not so much working on them... I have never had that issue with any of the project vehicles I have owned. Always love em. I like working on them, love to drive em. But I must say - this is the ugliest of all the projects I have ever owned and I have had it the shortest time but we get more comments on it than any other.
Yesterday was a good day -
And all the repairs we did worked great. Nice to know how much fuel we have for once. Trans shifts like it should and when you press the brake, it stops.
Nice!
And worth every single dime it costs to build it, fill it up and drive it.
