Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Goodbye road runner

Some you guys had cool first cars...mine was a Volkswagon Rabbit.

Believe it or not, there's a purplish looking car sticking out of the berry vines about 20 miles from here that looks sure enough like a Judge, what little I know. At one time they wrote "NO!" on the windshield. Can't imagine why can you??

Cool story. Happy ending.

remember you saying not so long ago u were wanting to build a shop and go full time ,
good luck with that .

Thank you Norm.

I lay awake at night dreaming about it. I sit in the evenings and sketch out the equipment layout in the shop and I simulate working out there in my mind. Then I erase and move things that are in the wrong place...

I think I am getting very close to my goal of a seamless layout.

I'm probably just as wild as this guy that's getting his old road runner back, I am very excited for my shop.

The win-win aspect of the Roadrunner returning to the previous owner is better than I could have imagined.
I suspect you'll make the most of it, well done, Sir!

well like the guys have said keep us informed , stories pics , ups and downs , just like deer camp but better well maybe better

PS wish I still had my 36 chev 2 door coach,

36 chev 2 door, NICE!

A Chevy 2 is PREZACTLY what you need Dave.
Free your mind from that Mopar junk.

ND... cool to know you can get this RR back to its old owner. Cooler to know that this will get you closer to your dream. Good luck and smooth transitions, amigo.

Doc

Plenty of Chevy projects laying around here Bart. One of the favorites out of my project row is a 54 chev 2 dr post, she's a sweetheart.



Thanks doc!

Dave,

Once again thanks for sharing another one of your car stories, they are IMHO my favorite threads to read on the campfire. I remember showing my wife the thread about weezie's stang build, I think that's the only thread I thought was so cool my wife would enjoy reading it. BTW, that was before the demise of the stang.

Looking forward to the completion of Northern Dave's motorhead lair and what comes out of it.

I'm also in the planning stages of at long last my first shop, albeit much smaller than I'd like and part of the house. In our local I had the option of a lot big enough for a stand alone shop but with a price tag on the dirt high there would be no funds for a shop, or a lot big enough for a house with a 4 car garage (really a 3 car with a tandem on the 3rd garage) and hopefully enough funds to build the house.

Don't forget to make motor and tool noises when planning out the shop

Sure can tell I will have to keep an eye out for 8-track players for your future projects.

Man - somebody smiled on your life lately, and I think we all know Who...

i wouldn't sell it. its like selling a kid after all that work.

There's plenty of that going on. Even at work!!!

I thought the same thing when I read that... " I bet he makes them when he scoots around in his chair and had a pretend steerign wheel.:



Am I right WB?

That would be correct but with the occasional grunts like tim the tool man.

Well, I put the air grabber back in the car (the black cowling on the underside of the hood). It looks great.



And I stripped and repainted the air cleaner lid, installed the new decal.





And on Sunday, We smashed snow with ole yeller... Shashed the 4uck out of that snow.



Cleared the snow off the future shop site, try to get the ground thawed quicker.

Geez do you own the whole state of Nort Dakota too?
