Our Cars (dream or actual)

@giles I love that sooo much, could even turn it into my screen saver. For me it's also the process of making and keeping a fire going. Outdoors or indoors, indoors in a grate of course not that much of a pyro [emoji51] yes, making fires I think it's one of the few things my Dad bigged me up on as a kid so I still make them whenever I can!

Don't want to derail this thread too much, but Madame Buttonfly and I were late into the office this morning as we had a 'load" of wood delivered yesterday and we decided we needed to stack it neatly. We are away for a couple of weeks as of tomorrow, job when we get back is to build a slate roofed version of this in the rear courtyard…..Can't wait, especially now I have found a local pikey who is over generous and under priced with his loads. Getting the thread back on track, he and I each have a Land Rover 110, so we bonded.....

I remember wood stacking. We had a stoat that "lived" in our wood pile, well probably not lived but spent his days catching mice for his supper.
I must admit I am very envious @Giles and @madame Buttonfly. Barcs and I are hoping to move back somewhere rural as soon as we can. Thanks for the very small derail it brought back some good memories.Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

@Giles i'd be into selling it for the right price
@mahlon321 yeah i hate the grill, i hate the paint, i hate the engine, i hate the mismatched rims and tires, i hate the stock cast mustang 2 a arms in the front suspension. so yeah i got some plans
-
that ford is blowing my mind @natehate, fuckin' awesome
-
Well I guess it's a little bit cooler than our Nissan….. slightly
-
@mahlon321 its a mostly fiberglass car
glass tub, hood, grill shell
real doors oddly enough and hood side panels (so weird)
theres a lot of undoing other peoples work to be done
i want it to run it no fenders
and some brainiac decided to fiber glass the fenders right to the body and make it smooth
so that could be a nightmare
the tail lights have to go and the big holes they will leave need to be glassed in
the steering set up is umm interesting
so thats gonna need attention
the interior isn't to bad
i actually kinda like it, minus the purple rope in the windows -
Well @natehate at least the main bit is solid and straight. (hopefully)
It's so strange that of all the things that are still metal, it's the doors. I'd have figured they'd be anything but metal
and fenderless is just rad. too bad you're gonna have to go digging and cutting to get them off!
I kinda like digging through the timeline of other peoples projects, always good for a laugh or a face palm
good luck man!
