Since it looks like we're finished with the Pollen blowing, and mother nature has mellowed out a bit, we're going to clean up Shari's Escape, and my dirty 2013, and Tim will do his car if he so desires.
I have some cleaning to do on Ka'Bluey also. I can't have anything in the bed, and nothing loose inside the cab. I'm hoping to hear a pick up date soon.
Y'all have a good Sunday.

We got to Hackup a Neon today and practice extractions. I got to tear **** up with the spreaders and cutters.

I didn't get another pic after we made it a convertible.

Oh and got a pic of my truck with the Utility and brush.

I've spent the last couple of day's outside getting things done on the truck, and Shari's Escape. I've washed them both, done the tires and wheels, and the glass has been cleaned inside and out, and 2 coats of RainX.
Next I want to get another coat of wax on my truck, and Clay Bar the Escape again, then more wax.

Home after a weeks travel. Two hotels and a conference center. Made it through downtown DC traffic with out a scratch on Lucille though, so I must be doing something right. However, if any one believes in luck, tell me what a dead black cat in the yard has in store for me, besides digging a grave for it?

Glad you and Lucille made it back in one piece.

Here's a few pictures of my buddy Monster Truck car crunch he did today. I was planning on being there, but oh well.
Shaker Racing Team, and Earthquake!
