CAN'T WAIT FOR SPRING..79 REST.

DECIDED TO REPAINT MY 79....GOOD TIME SINCE I NEEDED A NEW FUEL TANK...MY TRUCK WAS DYING FOR SOME REASON....CHECKED MY FUEL FILTER...FOUND OUT IT WAS FULL OF RUST....ONLY PROBLEM BEING ONLY HAVING ONE GARAGE...OF COURSE THE WIFE GETS IT...AND HAVING ONE OF OUR COLDEST WINTERS IN A LONG TIME...HAD TO TAKE THE WORK OUTSIDE. IM PRAYING FOR WARMER WEATHER...SURE COULD USE SOME OF LOWER 48"S

And how did you even change the font in the 1st place? I have seen it before and folks have changed the color, and made bold and underline inserts.

Yes I am computer challenged and a novice FTE navigator.

I know all about working outside. I have a large two car garage that's full, so I STILL have to work outside. Luckily this year, we had a much warmer winter and it wasn't so bad.
