You know your damn handy guy for a LOSER, keep the updates coming Chad

Oh yes. It's looking very good for a project of some sort :). Got some good news on sat :).

Just some good financial news for once, nothing more interesting than that. :).

Nobody, thankfully, lol.
There's a 1980 monza up right now, but they want too much, booo.

Nicely done... I'm still working on credit card stuff... hopefully I'll be able to say what you just did soon...

BUT it's still going to be a summer for cruising and car shows either way lol

Well, the 2002 Subaru I bought at Kenny Upull is on the road now, so the Colt is back in the garage without plates or insurance. Not really sure what I'm going to do with it, since it runs great but is a rotten sack of **** underneath. I should have thrown this car away, but I stuck with it...and rushed it on to the road. Bad idea. I'm not so in love with it that I want to strip it down and redo all the bad stuff, again, but I can't really figure out what to do next. My money tree is currently bare, so I may end up just going to more car shows and saving up for something else this summer. If I had the money, I'd be all over bygddy's Merc, but my timing is just a bit off, lol.

I'm also tempted to save up until next feb when we go to Florida for two weeks to visit my Ma and Step-Pa. Craigslist Orlando is full of all sorts of cool stuff :).

The only thing that would suck would be having to drive it back up and ending up in a snow storm.

That and I'd be driving back alone, lol. The wife isn't down with the adventure.

Have it shipped.

Wish you coulda bought it lol, woulda been neat. I got lucky today and my buddy decided to buy it, he will cruise it tis year, and next sprimg i can re-purchase it for same money if i want it. Im kinda jonesing for a mid to late 70's lincoln Mark V to put on bags tho....so who knows.....not to jack your thread but i had the Merc in the air today and good lord its clean

So if the car gods aren't just f**king with me...I may have one of my many dream projects soon.

I was cruising Kijiji, as usual, and saw an ad for an 84 Rabbit pickup for $300. It was a complete basket case, and on Wolfe Island, so I kinda wrote it off. I sent a text to a buddy with a Junkyard in Kaladar as a head's up. He calls the guy and then calls me in a panic. Turns out the guy is on Wolfe Island...but the car is in Kaladar! It's also not just a Rabbit pickup, but a pickup AND a diesel Rabbit! FOR $300.

So, wednesday both vehicles may end up at my buddy's junkyard, and I'll be heading up on the weekend to round up the truck. The Rabbit will go to my friend for parting/profit. This means my share is $150, lol. I'm actually looking for a nasty basket case so I can strip it down and redo it all, and rotten metal isn't an issue, so I'm pretty stoked.

I'm hoping that a slammed Rabbit pickup is LOSER worthy, at least for the humour value, lol.

Today's the day it's supposed to go down. If all goes well, I'll be taking friday off to head to Kaladar and plan out how to get it home :).

HA! It's mine now! :)
It's rough...really rough...but it's exactly what I was after. I'm pretty friggin stoked right now!
I'm heading up friday to check it out and will have some pics then. All I need is the hitch for my Subaru and I can bring it home...making that call now, lol.
