        Yes, I'm a CarJunkie... How many times would YOU rebuild the same engine before getting a crate motor?

          I hear you. Just sold a Ford truck I had been working on and off for 16 years. Pretty sure I wasn't going to get it done. The money is better in my pocket and the truck in his hands. Win-Win for everybody. Now I just have to find a new project that I am interested in......

                If you need a hand loading them up, let me know. I can use the wrecker to winch them on a trailer.
                That which you manifest is before you.

                    I may take u up on this, one has to go back on the frame.. of course I have to free up the 12 bolts brake shoes that have become one with the drums, so the frame rolls..

                    yes I know.. move backwards to move forward, but you know I'll hit the lotto the week he takes them out of here, for enough money not to be rich, but enough that I'd not have had to get them gone..

                      If you win the Lotto, you can just go buy a car that is already done, or one that has a nice body and interior and maybe some suspension upgrades that's just waiting for a drivetrain upgrade.......

                        Stitch - I know it's hard to let 'em go. I always get a bit choked up but sometimes you just HAVE to. I let Ol' Blue ('88 F150) go down the road recently. I wasn't doing a thing to it but I was gonna........ You know how that goes. Still it was hard but made easier as he went to a friend who has gotten him back on the road.

                        So hang in there. We're all with you.

                          Always the angle.

                          No one but you has ever had a tough time......uh, right.....

                          So come back with some news about what you got done on the truck this week. Check the ignition points. Anything. Dreaming/bragging/moaning don't count.

                          Really dude, I'd like to see you do well but the moaning has got to stop. Your close freinds, if they care about you, need to tell you that, no matter what your actual situation is. Is that stomping on your heart, to say that? Are you still alive? If things are so bad, are you going to stop eating or something?

                          Join the living, man. Get rid of what you're never going to work on and make some progress on something. A little every day. It's what the rest of us do.

                              If Stich does that, do you have any idea how many people will jump on him for being a CHECKBOOK RACER!! Considering how many people he's hammered with that same theme.
