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) |

I might as well tell everyone the major work I have on tap for this car. Relatively new front end. Relatively new floor pans. Relatively new complete rear trunk. And of course minor Hellhole work. Beat the rest of the metal somewhat smooth, apply paint. Then either hate the car by this point, love it or not want anything to do with them anymore. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
Nothing will get done this, the weather forecast is ice, snow then maybe a mix. It's been raining ice for the past 1 1/2hr. I really can't work in the garage either because its not insulated. To bad I can't roll the car around to the porch, remove the patio doors and roll the car inside to work on then replace the doors. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/idea.gif) It would at least clear by 4", but the problem is getting it up on the porch. |
