Alan you own that parking lot!
So BW's in Ozark at 5:30, I am going to have to watch the weather closely. I had to take Penny last night to Sarcoxie to watch the sick grandson today and tomorrow.
And it was rough getting home from there last night, we have 3" snow here and the roads over by Stockton were bad last night.

X2 on that, I am worked out, with alot of "all the other stuff", but in garage time. Even with Penny at the grandsons I always have other things to do for some reason.
But now the Expedition has way better heat.
So pass the word to Unk Bob "see ya next time, brother".

We had a good time tonight. We were fashionably late ourselves. Tiff and I didn't get away from work until a little later tonight. Still got to see Bob, Shari and Tim. I sent them away with new "Performance Inc." T-shirts.

Good Morning Everybody!
I got the Cavalier body work done and in primer yesterday. I have a couple more coats of primer to block, then on to color and clear. It'll probably be a short day since I can't cut, grind and weld in the shop with paint drying.

Howdy all. Alan, even half throttle you churn the work out. Dangit Jeff.
I'm off to the power plant Christmas dinner and then back to the office. At least I get four hours windshield time today.

Evening All!
I got the Cavalier painted today. I went to make a scrap run and the stupid yard is supposed to be open from 8-5, but when I got there at 3:35, those bastages had the gate closed!
The parts showed up for the Mazda 3 so that should be done by Monday. I have a couple repair jobs showing up this weekend, so I'll stay busy.

good morning missouri.. i am trying to get things rounded up for my trip north.. did get a few of the minor things done on ole rip that i have been putting off.. the turn signals cancel them selves now, that should make other drivers happy to know i am not always planning on turning..
.. drilled a few holes in the panel under the tailgate for trailer light adapter and license plate light..my new "ugly" bumper looks good..ha ha ha .. got my "new" throttle rod installed but my return spring is still too weak and i have to tap the throttle a few times to get it to idle, i may have to remove the air filter housing to fix that.... it should be a good trip if i dont run into any bad weather.. will talk with ya'll in a day or two

RC. Have a safe trip.
I have two cars getting dropped off today for some repair work and the Cavalier is getting delivered today. Then it's time to get the Mazda 3 in and get to bending metal on that thing. It looks like it's gonna be a busy week.
