Stop in for a cup of coffee

Must be breeding season for the humming birds. They are chasing each other around. May be he just wants a "hummer". :rofl::rofl:
 
Well Jodi about ran over two guys at a gas station in Mo. she finished fueling, checked all her rigging, then went in for a coffee. Came out jumped in truck, fired it up and two guys bailed out from between truck and trailer like rats! She stopped and they both started laughing, turns out they were up underneath taking pictures of front end geometry on Cuda. She did not see them because of bed and dresser loaded on truck! It is typical drag car front end, total hodgepodge of parts and nothing even remotely looks like Mopar! Blend of Hemi Denny, QA1 and Hodgkiss (sp?) and Wilwood. And of course the obligatory old school chain torque strap! But it has weathered many a wheel stand and more than one panic lift off the throttle from the moron driving it. Giving the Cuda some much needed attention is on the horizon. The last launch put a nice crack right up the center of front left fender. I keep meaning to stop drill it! Hah!

Too bad she didn't have a camera on the truck recording the area around the car during the trip. Probably make a great home movie night
 
So, it's great to have connections. I called one of my part suppliers and asked him if I could have some of their totes that their parts come in. He sent me four of them. They are great for parts when you're restoring a car. Keeps them all in one place, which suits me well.

Home almost a six hour round of golf. We shot a 17 under for 6th place overall.
First and second place posted -25 and -24 for those of you that play the game I say :bs_flag:
Leaving soon for my softball game. I bet no problem sleeping tonight.:thumbsup:

I would be a little upset with them going under there without asking... :mad:

It's one thing to take pictures from a distance, but to start crawling all over and up in it is going too far without permission... :mob:

Winter rules...

 
Damn, should have taken a photo. Tenderloin sandwich and a margarita or two tonight. I hate to use $75 Tequila but damn are they good! Thank God for spell check 5 misspelled words in 3 sentences. :rofl::rofl:
 
Evening all, got the suspension done up on the Fairlane and it started raining. We need the rain bad here.
 
I put up some lights over the patio. I hope we like them. They will be more fun in a hour or so.
