Its been a long week, looking to be an even longer summer, so I will post some pictures.

This one is the view as I drive to work in the morning as the sun rises, the Grand Tetons are there too, they just don't show up with my camera, my windshield is a litte dirty.

These next two are for toilet.  The first is a trailer I rebuilt and by boss's order, painted it safety blue so it wouldn't ever get lost.  The last one is of some of my toys,  I'm a hit with the kids on my street.

Yesterday I dethatched my lawn for the first time,  I hope I never see this much grass again.

This post is for you Eric. The first is the 9620 in front of the 8230, the second is a GI joe standing in front of a ERTL model tractor.

i don't have a lot to say lately, sometimes its just best to stay quiet and watch a video. I prolly should move to venice beach, it fits.  --the hermit

double click the video to watch it full screen on youtube, it is cooler then.

I did a good cleanin of my house this weekend so no pictures of projects.  I'll put a couple of pictures of when Tyler 'n' Nicole moved.

Todays project was running speakers into my living room.  I set everything up for a future TV I will hang on the wall.  The setup is a 5.1 and I think it turned out OK.  Now its time to watch a movie.

A couple of random pictures from last season. The tractor below just gave up on life.

I was checking out some online sites and this is a badass VW baja build,  the kid has some skill at fabrication.  He just needs to quit the procrastination.  Its not like I have a bug that I have been building since '95? Oh I have? I'll get right on that.

Saturdays project was getting the '61 volks home. I have a shop that I have been keeping my cars including this ragtop.  It is an early '61 which means it shares many parts from the pre '60 cars including  a hump gas tank, old style brake reservoir, and ice pick door handles, but it has an 1835cc motor and close ratio transmission for drag race, a KCW narrowed adjustable front beam with drop spindles, and it is currently running 14" type II wheels on the front.  I don't care for the one piece windows so I tracked down some new doors to put on the car with OG style windows.  In my searching I also found an original 4 tab hood I plan to put on the car.  Normally I would just drive it but the day I hopped in it to bring it home was -15 outside, I guess the lack of windows made the car want to give up, so the throttle cable snapped. For a normal volks this would be a quick change, in fact everything on a stock VW is much simpler, including loading the thing on the trailer.  After a couple of hours, I had the car on the trailer with some spare doors, my 2110cc motor, and other various parts. I also put a picture at the bottom of my other 3 cars, the yellow '65, black '61, and my viper blue '70 that the 2110 motor goes in (It is mostly under the cover with my jet ski cover on top)
