Ah, if that were only true. :lol: :lol: If you work it properly, an impatient woman is sometimes the quickest path to getting what ya want. You just have to make sure she's really itchy to get your projects out of her way. By way of example, her beautiful Mercedes Benz SLK has to share the driveway with a MUTT and the Alley Cat... polar opposites. If I wrangle this properly, who knows....maybe I get an actual shop to work out of? :wink:

Well, I pulled the old gas tank out and it's pretty shot out at the bottom. No surprise there, considering what the floor looked like. Received clearance from Momma to source a pre-emissions fuel tank. She wants her driveway back! So, if you have one in good shape (doesn't have to be pretty but it does have to be solid) and you want to convert it into cash, PM me. I'll be checking with the usual suppliers tomorrow.

Cheers,
TJ
