Right, might acquire one off lease, or an exec's ride when the time comes. I just have one of those 150's now, -my oldest daughter wants that. I haven't let go yet...

Yea, but I'm falling behind. Needs some TLC. Mechanically it's about as perfect as it can get it. It's been problem free for awhile. The body work needs completion. I can't find nobody that loves to do body work, - 4 Free... Dagumit, soo, converting the garage into a makeshift paint booth, running more power out there etc..

jbrew, what do you do for a living? At one time, I thought construction, then I thought computers.

Basically, that's all correct under one title -

http://www.iuoe324.org/contractors_info.php

I was @ BP for quite awhile, Ford Dearborn for 3 years, Computers come into play Via GPS set ups and laser plane. Automation systems.

The title is operating engineer. We take engineering that works on paper and re-engineer it to actually work in the field lol. Well, sometimes...

Involves Heavy Equipment. At Ford I did the finish work on the track, the parabolic, among other things..
