Default Ups!!!!!!!!

Drove by my house yesterday. Guy waved (must be a vette owner)
HA - seriously - looking for him to bring my new Shreds from Autobuffs any time! Just felt like being a smartass this morning!

I've found lots of UPS drivers are into cars - and they are pretty friendly. Hope you get your pieces from Autobuffs soon - Noel work is awesome.

Yeah, I was joking about the UPS guy, but the fella that does deliver for them in my area is a car guy - he doesn't have any but loves them. Every time he's at my house he always wants to come back and look at my old Buick - he's an older fella and loves this car. It's a 39 Touring Sedan and is 100% original with 39,000 miles on it - only thing not original is tires, battery and fuel pump! In case your interested - here it is!

Not on the first name basis with the UPS guy yet but have been with our mail lady for years since the majority of the stuff i buy on ebay comes USPS Priority . I'm sure the UPS guy will be cursing my name after yesterday though after carrying 2 boxes each with 1 cylender head in it. lol.

Edit: Man I love that Buick. Wish I had a garage to keep something like that in.
