Be proud of the work you are doing on your own. There's no better feeling than having someone stop by and chat at the local cruise nights to say Hello and Nice work. Knowing you turned your own wrench. Rob

Darrell, I like the work you are doing... looking good!

I happen to think the "green car" kicks a$$!

Mark that down as 3. The Green Car is perfection on four wheels.

Ain't no fun in viewing your car as an 'investment'. Get out there and beat on it!

I, too, tend to do as much as I can on the old cars. Perfection? Not really what I strive for; more interested to see how good I can make it with what resources I have available and can afford. I'm just a hard working guy with a passion who appreciates what it takes to own, and sometimes race cool cars.
Great story and better yet that you intend to honor your Dad's wishes. Keep up the good work and please post progress reports.......And Merry Christmas!!!

You're a good man!

BTW - cant help but wonder about the anti-tip bracket next to your multi-drawer to the left on the bench. Was that an "I'll get to it." type of thing?
