    Just want to whine
    « on: December 18, 2008 - 10:18:32 PM »
     :hyper:
    Wife is out of town, so had a whole night of quality time with the car......

    I don't mind body work, I actually kind of enjoy it - kind of a zen thing for all you body guys. Nice to make something nice out of something that was garbage before

    but then I got to looking at the gas tank, then the leaf spring mounts, then the....... - geesh - I like the pretty parts - hate working on the ugly parts (kind of reminds me
    of chasing woman when I was single!)

    Anyway....just thought I would whine a little...Lot's of sanding on the crawler...wish I had rotesierie(sp?)

    It was a balmy 60degrees or so last night here in SC - and the beer was plenty cold, so I guess I shouldn't whine that much!  :cheers:

    It was half that, if even, last night here, waiting for about 1 foot of snow to come any minute...  :eek7:

    You think you guys got it bad weather wise?????
    Where I live it is top down convertable weather for only about 320 days of the year.
    And tomorrow, I think I'll put my heater on for the first time ever-
    just to see if it works. hahahahahahahaha

    That is why I am going to put in as much new sheet metal that I can on my car this time.  Did not like to do the real dirty work.  Gordon
