Yea I hear you can break alum rims that way.....sorry. Hope you can get it bought, but if not maybe you can buddy up with who ever does and still get to use it for a REAL small fee if it stays local?
I have a lead on one and am waiting for the old guy to finally sell it, then its all mine. Maybe I can bait you up north more often with that? lol
Anyone heard from Unk Bob lately???

No sir, nothing from unk Bob lately. The shop i was supposed to be renting now has a loading dock in it and the other overhead door that can be driven through is downstairs in the back. I'm not too hip on that idea. I'm considering passing on it and just working from my home shop til I can either buy a shop in town or just build a pole barn out in our back two acres.

Whazzupp Y'all!!
Still alive here, I did something that I shouldn't have and made a trip to the Dr's for some stronger pill's for my back and they just turn me into a zombie. So today is really the first time I've done anything. Rich, thanks for asking bout me.
Still not much going on around here Ford wise other than Tim's ZX2. We took it the the shop that I used to work at last saturday. Got the new wheels that we got for him for Christmas installed. I left on really good terms, and they never charge me a dime for tire swaps, flat repairs etc. I allway's tip the guy that does the work tho.
We got the rear spoiler mounted on the deck lit early this week. By then it was another pain pill happening
.
Weather has been decent all week, and I haven't even been outside. May get out this afternoon. My buddy in Nixa called and we may go shooting this afternoon.
I'm taking that 44 mag again, and then looking for a snub nosed 38 or 357 mag next for a carry gun.

Brother I wuold love some Prozac...... Just makes the world.... A little nicer place.
Yep some window tint is in the near future, and looking for a factory back glass with defroster. We already got him some tunes, the car had a factory am/fm, not even a tape deck. So he has his nice Kenwood with c.d, ipod plug in's etc.... Spoiled kid!

Morning gentlemen, been busier since I got home than when I was "at work". Went to my son's basketball game last night (11 year old). Looks like he managed to get on a good team this year...beat their opponent by 28 points.
Those are my favorite type of auctions to go to. Good luck and hope your able to fill the truckGood looking car there Uncle Bob. When my wife and I were dating she drove a little Escort (forget the trim package). Granted it was an early '90s model...that thing just keep running. For what they are, it's amazing how long one will live.

CJ is reassembling the Sentra today and it'll go home tonight or tomorrow. I'll be working on the 68 coupe tonight and maybe the pit bike parts, they're scattered across two blankets on the hood of the convertible and I hope to be driving it and working on Ms Dent this spring.
