From my own experience, what doesn't pay the bills is not work worth doing. I believe what you are doing on some level is having "fun" :p

Wowza! Reminds me of a 1G a while back that had a velour interior. It was like pink and purple. All pimped out. IIRC some lady up in your area has the car still.

..turned some wrenches on the 370 today.

I painted my front rims black and figured out that I ordered 15s instead of 16s. . lol.

And yesterday I helped Brent change a transmission on his FB. That thing needs a lot of love bro'. But thats what we give them every day.
