Just checking in at an idle moment. Is that new years eve/day chat going to happen again this year? Anyone know? I thought that was pretty cool...
I put my '57 away for the "winter" even though it was 60 degrees last weekend. The '50 gets a house/garage spot so it is accessible and will be driven until they coat the roads for the first time this winter.
Zarwerks is keeping me busy, funds my addiction for really early VW parts well (is $464 for a pair of taillights without bulbholders too much?) but I am still keeping my "day" job. I spend some time over at thesamba, mostly the split forums.
Tomorrows fun is to rig some new gas tank straps and try to reconnect a Y pipe to a cat on my $500 plow truck; an '87 Dodge Ram PowerWagon that is so freaking long I have to move stuff to get it in the shop, and even then, I have to crawl under the front end to get to the other side (19' long truck, plus plow in a 22 ft shop...!)
Speaking of my shop, it was featured in Hemmings Motor News earlier this year. Here is a scan:
And I have a motorhome that I took 9500 miles in 42 days this past summer with my wife, kids and the dog. 9500 mi., 7.3mpg at $3.13/gal avg, you do the math. I am hoping to get invited to ExxonMobil's Christmas party this month. Even if I don't, I'm still showing up...
Its for sale:
Ya'll be good and have a great Christmas Season.....
