My address wouldn't do any good.... I WONT fly.... anywhere!! So maybe, Randy and I can make a road trip someday....
Backup lights would be a piece of cake, the cat back might be a bit harder,, challenges are good!
My name is Renee. Nice to meet you.

Hey Renee, could you call my wife? The closest thing she has done to helping with anything auto related is to stand back and yell "Thats not gonna work".

By the way welcome to NM's little spot on FTE!

My ol' lady (and yes, she don't mind me calling her that) will help out a bit if asked. Typically stuff like helping me bleed the brakes or hold this wrench or those kind of things.
I bought her a 1965 Falcon about a year ago for her daily driver. She loves the car and has gotten a bit more interested in my hobby since then.

It's nice to see women getting into auto related things, I've always been a bit of a "tom-boy" growing up, been working on cars and trucks since I was 16. I did it because I didn't want mechanics to try to "buffalo" me when I get work done... so I've always tried to do it myself first...
Sealboy..... good luck on that one....
