Every time I look at this thread I stop and stare in awe at the welds. That's just ridiculous.

I look at that one picture and see you sitting in that 78-82 seat with your feet on the milk crate after an evening of welding and saying...***** this is going to be great. I know I would be. It's a great start, I wish I had the time to do the same thing.

What state are you in Powersauto? If I ever needed anything welded, I would drive 500 miles just to have you do it.

(Serious). :Bowdown:

Read on a different forum that he purchased a new house in '13 and had to sell it. Hopefully, it found a good home.

Life does have a way of changing one's plans, no?

Doing good, just haven't had much time to spend on the cars this summer. I bought a new house out in the country myself just 3 months ago. Hoping to finally get a nice large garage next year to make this hobby more enjoyable .

I also decided that moving wasn't hectic enough, so I changed positions at work too in the middle of it . Also, purchased a trailer off my brother, so I can go to more tracks without worrying about breaking down. Just trying to see how much I can squeeze into one summer .

Good to hear from you. FWIW, my situations are in flux too... after having gone back to school and passing all the tests I'm about to begin a new day job in real estate. On the hobby front, I'm getting ready to begin a full frame-off while getting ever closer to officially opening a side business. I'll give you a heads up on when I'm about to get there.
