That's my shop in the background of the first pic. My shop used to belong to a guy that had a paint and body shop. It sits next to our house. We bought the house from him and then he decided to sell the shop. He made me an offer I couldn't refuse. Frank picture 1 And this is me when I'm between projects, which is not very often. :p picture 2 My wife often wonders what I'm doing out there when I don't have anything to work on. She just doesn't understand. When we gear heads don't have anything to work on, we are thinking, dreaming or druewling about what we are going to work on next. :p

I'm your neighbor over here in Parker County. There are quite a few of us in the area. We often meet at swap meets. You're welcome to join us.
By the way, I'm also the moderator here and you have been keeping me busy. Management has asked us to post links to pictures rather than the pictures. Please help me out.
Thanks, Cletis | | |
