You have learned well, Grasshopper.
Compared to parenting, Cat herding is less complicated

Sadness
My awesome mechanic died of a heart attack a few days after I picked up LooC…
He was out for the weekend, racing cars with his son.. so went out doing something he enjoyed, with someone he loved.

Good mechanics are getting scarcer ......

My mechanic just flat out retired and disappeared .

My mechanical engineer is still around making things go fast. But he doesn’t get too excited about my rides anymore…no 500hp MR2, no Dodge SRT10, or challenger just a white shoe box. He mentioned stuffing a twin turbo charged coyote motor in the front, adding that “recycling dinosaurs is part of our mission” i need a suspension system and rear locker and awning first. Lol.

Doing what I can and saving what I can to do what I need to have done next.
Made nice reflectix/blackout inserts for the sliders, learned that the sunshade I inherited Years ago in Arizona is a perfect fit for the windshield!, and I think I have an idea for the rear wings and rear window.. *should* work..
Going in person today to speak with whatever they call DMV here.. may need an extension for my temp plates… as no sign yet. (And they will be mailed to the middleman, who them mails them to me..) it is a stupid system here.. Lazy dealers are allowed to use middleman processing companies to submit the paperwork.. so adds another level of F-ery and delay to an already complicated process..
