    I own a Euro car repair shop, you know, Vw, Audi, Porsche, etc. repairs and other such fun? things. A long time customer comes in and needs repairs on his car.
    He knows I'm into hot rods, and says I have a fresh flat head engine sitting in my shop, taking up space, says, you wanna do a little trading?
    Yes was my reply... also, he says, I have a 40 Ford 4 door , and a 52 Ford panel truck, out in my compound that needs to go away.
    I almost died. Went and looked at the stuff, the 40 is a parts car, fairly beat up, but not horrible, the panel is quite nice, running and usable as is.
    The flatty is looking fresh as a daisy. So for some Vw repairs, I scored all the stuff. I have a good home for the motor, under the hood of my 31.. IMAG0545.jpg IMAG0549.jpg

    After I dig the cars out ( damned snow), and after I get back from GNRS, I'll post up some pics. The forty is going to be an organ donor for the A.

  11. And at no time did you think, "I should send him for some Psyco Theropy"? V-Dub people are a strange breed in deed.

    Well he's a good friend, and I won't take advantage of him. He pretty much has Carte Blanche at my shop for a good time to come...
