Tomorrow is "Drive a custom to work" day!!!

Just kidding! LOL! Now that the Merc is back on the road,i've got to drive it to work for a while,since my daily '82 Ford,pick-up is a POS!!! My company doesn't want me to drive it for work,cause it's an insurance thing. But I have no choice. At least until I get a newer pick-up for work. Wonder how many sheets of drywall I can get in my Merc,LOL!!!!

 

I don't drive to work anymore...but is it OK if I walk to my back yard garage and have a look at my '55 Caddy kustom...???

R-

 

*looks outside at the icy roads*

hmm...

*looks at tommorows forcast: -20 w/ blowing snow*

nope.

Sorry Bob! Your on your own buddy!

 

I can drive by some places where others work, will that work?

 

Man for a guy with two of the coolest customs around you sure might have the ****tiest daily driver ever!

Once I finish my 51 Merc, my dented 87 Suburban might have to challenge your Ford to a duel!

 

I saw this truck on the way home from work one day and was gonna stop and look at it but decided not to. Then I go to my Village Idiots meet and Diamond Daves dad comes driving in with it!!! WTF! So I bugged him for about a week and he sold it to me. Unfortunately it won't p*** smog! So I can't register it. Can't sell it. Can't give it to a salvage yard(cause i'm not the registered owner),so i'm screwed. I've been driving it for about 6 months or so,but now the brakes are goin out. It's a $800 truck,at best,so I DON'T want to spend a bunch of money on it. I gave my '95 Chevy pick-up to my older(don't know what I want)son,so now I have to get another one. I'm looking for another '95 Chevy shortbed,1/2 ton. But,in the mean time...it's drive the Merc...

 

BOB, ill hit you up when im ready to sell my 95!

 

If I drove your "Custom" to work I would never get there Just kidding, fix that damn Merc.
I know a smog guy who might be able to smog the OT truck.

 

It needs too many things,more than it's worth,or I want to spend. I'm done with it!!! By the way...my Merc drives just fine,PAL!!!
Just not frwy friendly,LOL!

 

you just need a trailer bob ! or repo the truck from the kid damn just the luck i just sold a 90 SS 454 ..

 

YIKES! We had to put up with 74 degrees here...

 

Thanks buddy!!!

 

No,don't need a trailer! Just a daily driver work truck,for about 5K.

 

if i had a boss tell me i couldnt drive my hot rod to work id tell him where he could go, and find another job!!!!!! as an employer my guys can drive what ever they want to work so long as they get to work!!! sounds like your boss doesnt want to come off the money for decent insurance.

 

Well,it's not that simple. #1 it's a $90k a year job,#2 My company covers me while I drive at work,FOR ANYTHING!,#3 They pay my gas! And you know how much is right now. #4 My brother-in-law owns the company.
The guys who run jobs have to keep records of their maintenance on their work vehicles,and they will not cover me driving my Merc. That's okay,i'm not complaining. I really don't feel like loading a bunch of screwguns,cords,water hoses,and screws in my car anyways,LOL!!!

 

I'm going to follow your lead. I'm driving mine to work tomorrow.

 

LOL! That's funny cause I meant it as a joke. That's cool if you drive yours too! I'll be driving mine for a while,til I get a truck. It's been about 4 months since I drove it too work. It's funny watching everybody going crazy,trying to get your attention.

 

I just look for any excuse to drive it - you're just my scapegoat!

 

OH! So it's my fault,LOL!!! That's cool...i'll take the heat...

 

well it looks like the writers may go back ,,so very soon i can drive mine to work..........................

 

That's cool Rick. I was just talking to Dreadman about the strike today. Hope it ends,cause i'm tired of Reality TV. So what award did the Impala win?

 

****, are you kidding, you werent working either???
Damn writers strike.

 

oops

 

it got a participation award,,,dont know if you know this but last year at the gnrs drive in on sunday it won super chevy editors award,,i was shocked how many cameros/chevell/tri fives do you think were pissed when a lowrider got the award..........he he he......ya my freind got a call today that he starts back up a week from tuesday. he is on criminal minds..its not cast in stone but it looks good i have not got that call yet.........my show is rules of engaugement...........

 

Shouldn't EVERY day be "Drive a custom to work" day?


I wish mine was done........


of course, for it to GET done, I'd actually have to WORK on it......


dv

 

I work at home so it will be a short drive!

 

Pulling mine out, dusting her off and heading to work in the morning then maybe swing by Bob's tomorrow nite. It feels like summer out here. Hell yeah!! -stick

 

I remember last year when you got that award. That's cool. I can't believe how much money was lost when they went out on strike. Hope it's over soon.

 

That means you have to drive around the block! LOL!

 

Hell, I wil drive mine to work as well. And then I will take it out to Hollywood for a little cruise on my 30th b-day! Yeah, sounds like a plan.
