Neither of those options sound appealing to me. Nor does working on a vehicle in the weather.

When you work on a mud truck, doesn't matter it's it's raining or not, your getting muddy.

Hope you come home with them. Ka'Bluey made it under the 35 year or older inspection rule, right?

Nope
I have to get the License & Theft inspection done.
And the VIN on the cab doesn't match cause of the cab swap. Inspection will be today or Monday
But, I do have a tag and can legally drive him. My personalized tag (never had one before) will be here in about a month.

Probably a lot less than you may imagine.
But I was able to get a tag, and can now drive Ka'Bluey It's still pretty wild, that I sold him 3 years ago, and 1000 miles away, and he's in my drive way.

Thanks Tony. It's getting better, just takes a little time and rest(like I don't get enough already lol). I can't complain though, this is the first terrible episode that I've had in almost a year.

Be Good!

Hope you get feeling better Marty.
My boy is here, tagged, and insured, and setting in the drive way.
This cool damp weather has me on my pain meds today, and there's no way I'd drive him when I can barely feel the ground I'm floating....Uh walking on.
