    I know better to drink beer w/ Bill I have heard story. Bill has done some best metal work I have ever seen. I put him up there with the best. His welding is a piece of art. You should see the working he is doing to 1956 Lincoln. It is unbelievable. We need to go to his shop one weekend. I know he is little different but the man is really good. He did some work on 1932 Roadster. Is he going to do some work on 3W coupe. I wish I could get him to finish my project.

    Back in the 80's while hunting for squirrel I found farm w/ alot of 30's model cars. The farmer is real ***. He would not selling a thing and told me I was tr***p***ing. I found out the farmer was going to Ohio for holiday. So I decide to going back squirrel hunting w/ cordless sawall. Found a really solid old Chevy car and cut out the cowl vent. I also scored some more small parts. Hope the farmer goes back on vacation this summer.

    The wife has went be back Atlantic City w/ some friend. The daughter and friend went Greece for vacation. The brother/sister is packing up and moving to California. He told our parents he is going to be the next Chip Foose. I don't now how is going to be great car building the guy? cannot even weld. I think he watch to much TV. This left me alot time to work on the car. Did some work on the firewall, cowl patch panel, and rear floor pan.

    Willie!! you had me wondering... when they all leave you alone you do get alot of quality work done!! the battery sawsall is the greatest requisition tool there is in the woods and in someone elses collection. the "D" handle makes them easy to run with! the quick release for the blade is a great safty feature when crawling through fences when someone is shooting at you!

If we go to swap meet I see something I like Daddy buys it for me. All have to do is going over there every Saturday and ******** with he give me what I want. It is like have Santa for a Daddy. I use all of tools and garage to build this great car. Why do I need to buy any tools and have his shop. I will always Daddy stuff to use. Kiss *** will get long way in this world.

    This thread brought back a memory. I was at a HS reunion and I couldn't get this girl's name from my memory banks. A few minutes of talking and it turns out "she" used to be 'HE"! Back then I wasn't much for rude behaviour so I carried on the conversation a bit. I couldn't help but ask about how bad it was to lose the male member. She said that wasn't so bad to deal with, but removing 1/2 of his brain was pretty tough.

    So where did they get a 1/2 brain to go the other way?

    Yes, I know I'm not going to be very popular here with our lady HAMBers for a while...

    "THE THRILL IS GONE" I have not worked on the car for 6 months. I go to the shop look at the car say to myself I need something different. This weekend I might go look at the new Mustang, Camaro, or Charger. Those Goldchainer car are really nice. I can relive my youth and be somebody without all the hard work. This will tell all my hotrod friend I have made it to the top of the car chain. I can go to the Goodguy shows in my new Goldchainer car. The sedan might be put in storage or put on the market for sale. I hate to do it. This might be the end of build thread. P.S. My new Brother is still in California try to be next Boyd.
