Morning!
Going to rise above freezing, seems to be warming up a little. Studebaker is in shop, working on the windlace around the driver’s door. I need tacks. Staples just arent cutting it. Some spots i cant get the stapler in to secure it.

The middle Son, Thang, age 19, has a performance Honda 150cc motorcycle. He has modified this thing significantly since he got it. Custom brakes and exhaust and different things including carbureation. I've heard him run it down the road. It sounds great and loud. Last week he had a collision with two young girls on an electric motorbike that crashed into him broadside. He went down pretty hard and it broke up a lot of plastic parts on the bike and scraped up the exhaust system, and threw the front wheel out of alignment with the handlebars. He also received some pretty good road rash from the fall. In Vietnam when there is a traffic accident, unless somebody is deathfully ill they pretty much let It go and each party goes on their own way. That would never happen with our litigious ways in America. So today he started out to remove some of the plastic parts. I think he was trying address the out of alignment problem. But I don't think he could really figure it out by himself, so I stepped in to help him. Mind you, he's got this thing disassembled and parts scattered everywhere in his mother 's Spa Shop. Kkkkkk. Same thing we would do in America in the living room. Lol. After I told him we had to pull all of the plastic off the front in order to expose the forks, he did so. So then I showed him how to untighten the bolts on the front tubes tee and jerk the front end back into alignment. All good now, but he'll need to buy some new plastic parts that were broken or cracked. He could hardly believe I knew all this. So then I had to show him pictures of all of the things that I have either restored or built from scratch. kkkkkkkkk

He like so many young people look at your generation as not having value. Now that he has gotten a bit of insight into your skill set he will undoubtedly look at you very differently moving forward. l would venture a guess you just created a number one fan out of him. Plus ya got some brownie points with mom. Well done Sir!

Wow, he did go for a spill. Quite a bit of road rash there. Good that he didn't get hurt bad.
