Just came in from the garage. I wet sanded my brackets, mixed some paint, sprayed them, and cleaned the gun. I still need to clean the fasteners, but it can wait. I am extremely sore and tired from my first week back to work.

I did not even get to my shop today ,had a young lady wreck her car at my mother n laws house this morning ,it was rainy and very foggy and she didnt make the curve at my driveway and overcorrected ,hit the culvert at my MIL's driveway and went airborn into a very large tree .I spent a couple of hours there with the deputy's and the paramedics ,she was not badly hurt but her car totaled.Then I came back home and gathered firewood for the next several days as it is going to be much colder than normal .

Hope your MIL is OK. Sounds like only damage to a tree. Hope her house is fine.

I didn't do anything to my Chevelle today, except think about it while we were shoveing the 10" of snow from in front of the garage in 8 degree weather. I am so glad that she is stored away in a climate controlled warehouse. No snow and 55 degrees.

I went in the shop and looked the cars over while looking for missing truck parts but did nothing with the Chevelle or Elky. Im going to start polishing the valve covers that WildBill sold me to go on my truck in the comfort of my easy chair after I get thawed out.

I'm beginning to think I don't even own a classic car any more. The Chevelle has been at the speed shop since before Thanksgiving and the Vette has been at a buddy's shop since.....Mid-September (actually had to go look at the calendar because I couldn't remember.)

Guess with the weather we've had the past few months it isn't a great loss. Between the weeks of rain and now freezing temps, there would be little driving to do anyway.
