"The Beater Bee" becomes "The Better Bee"

[A12pilot]

Alrighty!!!! Moving right along!!!!! All I need to do is get the driver's door glass installed and I'll be all finished with doors! The day didn't start out very good. I showed up and there were puddles under the car from the rear, transmission, engine, and raditor. Funny thing? No fluid in the car yet and Bob at Glen Ray still has my radiator![img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/hmmm.gif[/img] Meh...no matter! Must not be an omen to how the day is going to go. So let's see...quarter glass installed..adjusted.....rolls up, rolls down. Man, I'm cruising!!!! What could go wrong? [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/dunno.gif[/img] Nothing! That's what! I laugh at your deadlines!!!! Take THAT peer pressure, tic-toc of the clock, and Mikey with his constant badgering of when the Bee is going to get done!! Let me just take this here door glass, original to the car, and slip a new, overly tight, front felt channel on the, did I mention, ORIGINAL excellent condition door glass? Let's see...a little here...and whoa...a little tight. That's usually a good thing (oh!)......do-dee- dooo.....(push) (grunt)....huh....tighter than I thought....let me move this here....a little silicone spray.....{mmmmppph}...cripes! What the........{hhhuuuuuuummmmppppppppffffffff} there she goooe {SLIP........ BANG!!!!!!!!!!!}[img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cry.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cry.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/cry.gif[/img] And as the last 1/4&quot; size piece of cubbed glass drops from my hands with one hand holding the rear chrome strip and the other holding the vent frame...I'm left with this [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

....now I need to sweep up 12,000 pieces. Maybe 13,000.....I lost count. Well that's just great......Why do I even bother restoring cars? What's the point of all this??? UGH!!!!!! I got a car leaking fluid that has none in it....I found three tools the other day that I swore were lost forever and they were on the workbench right in front of my face...one stacked on top of another......and now it seems an air line has busted in the shop since all I hear is {SSSSSHSSSSHSHSHSHSSHSHSHSHSHSHHHHHHHHHHH} from the other side of the room![img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/mad.gif[/img] Time to regroup. 2017 has not gone very well so far. Stay tuned!!! More to come this week!
