    And the camper, and all the Bells Oberon, and her sister too! They're going camping this weekend in South Haven, so I THINK they'll be home on Sunday. If they're not, I'll miss that car...

    See the whole story at "Cool McCool's Garage", http://flynbrian48.wordpress.com/, and you won't have to wait 'till it airs on "Divorce Court"...

    Thats a nice set up. I had to choose between my wife and my drag car, I chose the drag car but lost it in the divorce. I sure miss that car.

  8. I don't know about woodies, I do know a few fellas that keep their gonads in their ladies purse. The question, "What parts do you hide from your wife comes to mind?" :D:D

    I'd say he's got a world cl*** gal if she will hook up the trailer to the cruiser,, throw her sister in side and go camping on her own. Mine would expect me to tow the trailer up there for her and set it up and then go back and pick it up after the weekend was over and she had "camped" all weekend.

    Girls need a "Girls weekend" just like us guys do. Good for you. Good for her for wanting to take the cool stuff out for the girls weekend.

    While the Mrs. is gone.

    1. Do not use the dish washer as a parts washer.:eek:
    2. Do not use the oven for powder coating objects.:eek:
    3. Put the lid down, before she gets home:eek:
    4. Leave her car alone, mechanically it's fine as is.:rolleyes:
    5. Do not use dish towels as rags

    Yeah, it's wrinkly. The f'gl*** skin expands in the heat, and it krinkles up. I disconvered AFTER I bought the stuff, and applied it in the cold in the dead of winter (well, it was late winter/early spring, and it was about 50) that the stuff is meant to be glued to the plywood skin with contact cement.

    IF I'd been able to heat the shop to 65+ and hold it for 24 hours, and IF I could have handled the skins by myself, I'd have given it a try. I'm a little dissapointed in wrinkly look, but smooth aluminum sheet (without lines broken in it) does the same thing.

    In the shade, when it's cool, the sides are smooth.

    Read your "Cool McCool's Garage" post. Thanks. You have a great wife and family to go camping without you. After two weeks I'd be calling the police about the woody. If it were mine I'd miss it!
