Got a build thread for that car?

My Father's Oldsmobile

Just figured I'd throw this out there. My screen name comes from the 67 442 in my Avatar. The story goes like this: allegedly, my dad ordered a brand new 67 442 from City Olds 'round about getting out of high school. I've heard multiple stories of how the gearheads that used to hang out at the...

No, I've surpassed his abilities. He won't even drive it anymore. Well, he will, but it takes a lot of coaching.

I get where the comment comes from, but this is truly a family affair. The daughter doesn't quite get it, but she's coming around. I like to think think she wouldn't sell it.

Future ex-son in laws that pass the shotgun/snipe hunting test?

Yes

Shotgun test....

Step 1: he knocks on door
Step 2: you open door with shotgun pointed in his face

Fail: he pees his pants, runs, or, cowers and stammers

Pass: he starts asking questions about the gun

That about right?

We built a garden/potting bench for the stepfather today.

Hand cut all the wood, 4x4 post for legs and 2 top crossbeams. Used hurricane ties to keep legs from getting wobbly, then put 2x2s spaced an inch and a half apart for the slotting.

Unless someone intentionally tries to trash it I'd expect it to outlast either of us.



Of course I took an off center picture, because, it's me, but you get the idea. One way to stay busy for for the day and only spend $20.
