Hot Rods Got caught by the wife today

Hahaha... too funny. I'm sorry to laugh out loud at your spousal abuse. That's not very PC of me.

The RPU is pretty dang cool. I'd like one of those someday.

 

dude you are walkin a thin line, get that thing rollin roll it out and get that merc in there

 

so is this what you're bringing to The Invasion this year??

 

Mine works on her Fairlane while I work on my '62 C10 next to her. We pass each other wrenches. The biggest hassle is when I need a socket that she's hoarding over there. Glad to see you're wrenching, even if it is on the wife's Merc. At least you're not having to replace the alternator on a Mountaineer or Saturn. Yech!

 

I wish my wife gave crap about cars. she's supportive, but she just doesn't care at all about them.

 

Looks like a great start. I like your budgetary goal as well. Keep it up and keep us posted. I can't wait to see the Merc, either.

 

I would be working on the Merc...........it's got a way bigger back seat.

 

I worked on building a bug catcher today. Roughed in the shape. Outer pieces are stainless the rest is made with steel thought about polishing the stainless not sure yet. It finally came together harder than I thought it would be.

 

Just thought I would post up some progress pictures. Hoping I can have it running for my wife to drive to the invasion show. After that we will have her take it to Manifolds on main. She hates being in the coupe loud and hot. And she says I try to kill her in it.

 

Keep lovie happy for you know there will be a day , and you know its coming,when all you hear in the still of the night is CLICK CLICK and it ain't no cricket . My mistake was teaching my wife to throw an axe and she can stick the bulls eye every time, needless to say the house gets finished first . Living in fear ,Rob

 

I may have rosted the 302 in the 57 last sat, I told the wife I still keeping the car she said your f---ing right your keeping my car, I asked when it became hers ?
she said the day it came home ! 20 + years and she still understands, lol

 

I know the least comfortable way to use a couch.....35min at a time! it's a bitch not being able to look left. thanx master card..priceless.

 

Haha -

look forward to checkin it out

 

Hell yeah!!!!

 

My buddy's wife yaks at him if she doesn't think he spends enough time in the garage. Lucky guy. My ex always wined that I spent too much time in there and loved the truck more than her. I still have that truck....

 

Thats not a mercury

 

I took the truck around the block. Went rather well considering I still have things to do. It will be up for sale soon need to make room for my wife's car. And possible a customers build.

 

one more

 

Looks good my friend.

 

Cool! You work pretty fast!

 

Touche hombre.

 

if it's tits or wheels sooner or later you got problems!

 

Just remember big job,BIG REWARDS

 

So I am sound asleep and she wakes me up by screaming:

SO!! You thought I wouldn't find out?!

I was startled! Barely awake, my first response was: "baby, she didn't mean anything to me!!

*Silence*

... I was talking about the two thousand dollars you spent on exhaust that you were hiding on the credit card... What were YOU talking about?!

Uh..... *Damnit*

 

Ah, you boys think you've got it rough. Heck, I'm running out of friends with driveways. Where the hell am I gonna hide all these cars and trucks now?!

The only thing I know for sure is that they can't all come home at once or I'll be cooking for myself again. And NO ONE wants that. LOL

 

Do the Merc! You can build a Hotrod in about a month,LOL....

 

Don't get married and teach you'r kids not to.
