      • a bit more work, I had to take a stop and look at the Seften - I think I'm going to sell it - the last week, twice, I needed to tow my Bobcat and can't with anything I have now...

        anyway, it's just more money for parts for this
        I've now welded as much as I can weld before taking the body off (waiting patiently for Metal fab...)


        finished grinding then stripped the cover



        and worked on brackets for the fenders




        and getting an idea of paint colors... still thinking of the Harley color...

              • Got more done than I.. Leaving the farm, I see 2 guys walking around a couple of our cars in our 2nd driveway, behind brush.. Stopped and asked what they were doing as somebody broke several windows, stole trim off the car and tied a bunch of floating balloons to the broken opening.. They wanted to know why I was bothering them... Huh? My property, my son's cars.. Why are you tresspassing?.. Boy were they mad.. When I saw them, one was trying to take the steering wheel off a 59 merc freeway cruiser! Got it moved!

                • the only reason they'd be mad if I caught them would be because I'd make them clean up their blood from the bullet holes before I let the ambulance and cops take them.

                  • Felt like it.. Really! The nerve of some people!
                    Son recently walked up to somebody, asking, "Can I help you?"
                    Guy says , " What do YOU want? "
                    Son was thinking he should have had his gun on him, "I own the cars, What do you want?"
                    " Oh, I guess nothing then.."
                    He had screwdrivers and wrenches in his back pocket..
                    "NO TRESSPASSING" means just that except "me" No matter who "me" is...
                    Disrespect!

                    • my favorite response is "they're junk cars anyway, it's not like you're going to do anything with them." My response was "they'll be your coffin if you don't start running"... he did.

                      • What folks fail very often (too often!) is they are MY cars to fix or let rot!

                        • yeah, but I even had a cop, once, tell me that the reason he was adversely possessing a private school's property was "because they weren't using it"... to me, it's simply lack of integrity.

                          • As Keith has said at the track, "If you can wake up in the morning and look at yourself in the mirror after cheating (or stealing in this case), what kind of man are you? I don't see any difference between stealing and cheating - with stealing you're simply cheating about how to go about owning something. I say don't kill them - shoot them in the crotch so they can't make any more like themselves.
