Sir, my dad had it back in the 90’s and he did well. I’m sure with the advances in medicine, you’ll be able to get back to a better life. Thoughts and prayers are with you and your family! Take care!

Had a sunday family get together at the beach park down the road from my house. Good time kids running around playing in the water, cold beer, poke, and large variety of food cooked on the grill. Stayed and watched the sunset.

You need a few sticks of butter to accompany those.

As much as I like the purple car, my money is on the pink airplane

my compressor blew a line off a few months ago and ran for 12 hours, smoked the pump. replaced it and the 30 amp breaker would pop after a while of use. Talked to an electrician and we came to the conclusion that the breaker was probably overheated and became week. Well had to use the compressor for a few hours so i had a 50 amp so threw it in. next day bought a new 30 amp and installed it, ran it up to about 110lbs of pressure and the new breaker blew. Son came over and hooked up a meter and the thing was drawing 42 amps. Assumed motor might be bad, called a electrical motor rebuilder and he said to check the capacitors. pulled off the cover and found this, thank god it was in an enclosed metal box. Brand new shop would have been burnt to the ground. last pic is what its supposed to look like. counting my blessings as I speak.

Still sorting out scrap etc. My shop is getting trashy but at least the 'other' house is getting cleaned up. Can't beat the weather though....it's absolutely beautiful! Finding lots of stuff in the stuff that's been brought over here that was 'thrown away' by her son in the name of getting rid of the mess. It goes from trinkets to welding supplies! Even found some ammo that's never been opened and a few gun parts not to mention tools.

Went down to the Stockton, California Pick-N-Pull, wrecking yard to get parts off a 1971 Dodge Dart that they put out in one of their Chrysler Corp. row of cars, Friday morning.
Fortunately for me it was a factory Kelsey Hayes disc brake car, so naturally i got all those parts and pieces, along with the lower control arms that i always go after.
Two other Mopar nuts were there too, taking the hood, fenders, grill, trim, off of it.
Three days out in the yard, and now heavily picked over.
Was a very nice car to begin with for all you rust bucket state people, that don't see un rusted cars.
A well equipped slant 6 car.
The other guys knew me from the A and B bodies sites as hemi71x, my user ID.

Built my friend a wood shed for her fire pit wood. I built it at my place, disassembled it and took it to her place. Most of the 2x4s I found for free. A friend gave me the metal for the roof.
