Like you said at least NO one was hurt, and that is all that matters.

Jeff going to call you about tomorrow's time line.

ALL day in Spg, just got home, Penny's mom's test results/biopsy are NEGATIVE for cancer.

Evening All!

Rich. Great news about Penny's mom.

Bob. Cars can be replaced. I'm glad Tim is ok.

Jeff. Yeah, 3" lift shocks are what you need.

Oh man! I got the other spring done and in on the diesel. This thing just screams attitude now. I'm gonna try to remember the camera tomorrow. It looks really tough.

Good Morning Everybody!

I should have the Capri buttoned up today. The helper has been doing most of the work. I was just there for guidance. He asked a few dumb questions about carburetors and ignition systems, but you know kids these days. ....if it doesn't have a computer or a coil pack, they don't know anything about it.

I should have the fuel fills on Bandit done today too. ...at least that's the plan. I will do my level best to put the camera in the truck this morning so I can show you guys some pictures.

Well in his defense carburetors are the devil!! I always have to call in backup if I have carburetor issues. Lucky for me my uncle is fairly good with them and I can return the favor for him when he has wiring issues with the newer cars.

Busy day here. We made it out to the police tow lot, and got everything paid for, at ridiculous rates. I think we have the car sold, we'll get enough to put the money for towing etc, back in the bank. And $80 that we're letting Tim put in his pocket.
Should have this all wrapped up tomorrow afternoon.
Hope everybody is safe.

Unk Bob
