Most of the people that raise a fuss over our projects don't have a pot to pizz in.
It's easy to sit there with your brand new stock truck with payments, and tell us how wrong we are for resurrecting something that was discarded for trash, and making it safe, and giving it new life.
I have seen some things I would never do to any of my projects, but that don't mean it was wrong for that person to do that to his project.
Then we have the ones that just sit and write checks, have their project handed to them, and act like they did all the work.
I like stock, modded, rodded, and restro rodded
They are all eye candy to me.
All of my viehicles stay in an "unfinished" state, as I just plain out like to work on them!

Not much going on today. Dentist appointment this morning. Then pick up the mirror for the car. Folks got back from their trip last night. Dad's glad the skunks are out of the garage, but now we have them in the horse/hay barn.
Walked in there and was greeted by "The General" (bossy barn boss) who seemed a little upset. Went over to get her cat food out of the barrel (food is only out for a few hours during the day then shut up in the barrel for evening and night) and found a big skunk sitting there waiting. I am really beginning to hate these close encounters of the 2 to 3 foot variety. Anyway, that skunk went away. The General is now a happy kitty and we just have to worry about what we are going to find on the next visit to the barn. It seems we have many more skunks around this year than we have in the past.

I used to have a pet skunk.
She was "de-scented.
They are very much like cats.
If you want to catch them, they go bonkers over the green seedless grapes. Make a line of them to where You want to trap them.
Skunks can't jump or climb, so a slick ramp into a box will catch them easily. What to do about the spray, IDK, mine would back up at you, flip that tail up and wiggle.
Glad she was altered, I would have had an issue, I'm sure, as I used to tease her just so she'd go in spray mode, lol
