Old cars sure are fun

Lots of fun trying to fit old tin onto an old framework-- Doesn't seem like anything is the right size to fit anywhere. Seems like everything I try to fit good makes something else fit poorly. Pretty discouraging after all the work you do to get this far. Only thing I can do is take a break and go back at it after I calm down. All it means is -A lot of breaks - Long winter so maybe by spring I will be gaining.
We have about 8 to 10 inches of snow here so far. Don't want any more if I can help it. My uphill driveway-(to get out of my yard) - is not much fun . sure nice to come home tho.-( long as I don't let the car get away on me ) Wouldn't be fun if I drive through my garage without opening the door. Just more work for me.
Lunch time then back at it

Re: Old cars sure are fun

Keep the snow out there, Ken. We are still hoping to get some summer with our broke all records for rainfall and coolness this year in Ottawa. Sunday before last we got 100 mm (4 inch)plus high winds. Last 3 days someone must have used rad leak fix on the clouds so we could get some yard work done. However rain in the forecast today again, but temp is to go down tonight to 16 F . Fri the high of 23 F. Sat and next few days balmy weather with highs 34 to 41 F sigh.

You shouldn't have put the moose in the freezer and used it to pull the 614 up and down hills.
