What did you do to your non-G body project today? [2021]

[Northernregal]

New brakes and chain for the mountain bike... No big deal...

Just finished up the police report for... unknown damages at one of the houses.







They took a bunch of linoleum floor, paint, materials, light fixtures, all kinds of stuff and made a massive fire so hot they broke the concrete block on the fire pit, and left a black glossy slag on the sills. Tried to burn their vodka bottles and mad dog, didn't work on all of it. Idiots left 4 aluminum cans from malt liquor and high gravity beer behind in the grass/ivy they must've missed.

It's now in the police evidence locker.

And they did all that sh*t 30 feet from a bored (not drilled) shallow well as the property doesn't have city water access. Soo..... there's that to worry about.

Pics didn't come out as good as I hoped..

So. . . one of the houses = one of your investment properties?

Welp, since the cunty old guy who is building a house across the street keeps calling the powers that be (cops?) to put that lovely orange sticker on my stuff parked outside my house, I moved the car into the driveway after getting 2 used junkyard tires to replace the ranger wheel and flat tire on the car. 235/75/15s still look small on that car.

Also at that yard pulled two 800cfm qjets. One from a 78ish buick lesabre with a 403 and one from a 76 cutlass with i think a 350. Both are complete engine wise (minus carbs obv) so anyone in the area hit up wrench n go in iowa if yall want some olds engines. Old cars dont last long at all at that yard.
Also got two non eq tape decks from 90s gm fwd stuff.

No Jordan, you can't run a junkyard from the street in front of your house.

Friends don't give friends Fords... or herpes. They're the gifts you can never forget you got.

Got some poly sprayed on the coffee table project, just a few coats for now. Need to get the legs and framework put together and stained now. Will give the top a few more coats later on. Got a bunch of other odds and ends done yesterday as well, finished up all the baseboard molding in the front entry of the house and built a small display stand for a dish that my wife picked up. Need to stain and poly that too. We refinished the little blue corner table last week, that came out pretty good.

I told my MIL one time that I could find she had only one major flaw...she liked Ford cars. But she offset that by paying me with her awesome apple pies she used to bake me for doing maintenance here and there around her house. I would tell her that was my standard fee. Need a new bathroom faucet installed?....apple pie whenever you bake again. New storm door?...apple pie. She liked baking, and I liked eating the stuff she made. Amazingly I'm down about 10 lbs since she passed away. 😆

Highlighted the MAIN reason above. I can't knock a gift for sure. My mother-in-law willed me her 2012 Ford Focus with a ridiculous 3,800 miles on it when she passed. I found out why after she passed. It was simply because I went with her to help make sure she got the best deal on it. I thought it was because she thought I must have needed another car! 😊 I tried to get her not to will it to me as I really didn't want or need it. She insisted. I'm conflicted on selling it, though because my wife says when she drives it or rides in it that it reminds her of her mom. Old people are strange sometimes, myself included.

If you keep the Focus for a little while, and decide to do some deeper investigation into them, there are a couple of Focus forums you might browse through.
AllFord Focus, and FocusFanatics. It seems that some of the Focuses can be bumped up to some amazing horse power levels.

My niece has this Focus hatch with some mods. It's not an ST or RS, but it's still a peppy car. I've always had a soft spot for the "import" type cars that are tastefully done...
