This project was never supposed to be quick and dirty. This is a proper race car build; I'm in no rush. It's not my problem if people are trying to live vicariously and don't like my pace. I prefer quality.

I refer you to my budget build if you want slapdash results.






And from yesterday..

Moved some rocks, then went flying.







Happy Memorial Day everyone. I hope everyone enjoys their day.

..So here's what has happened since you last heard from me...





-Been daily driving the 280



-Painted a motorcycle for a Gentleman. Bed liner.

-And finally, the sailing program that I teach has now come to a close for the season. But I've been doing this as often as possible.








Went sailing yesterday, broke the boom...WITH MY HEAD.. Already fixed by this morning.

Lots of stuff has been happening, luckily, my busy schedule has paid off.

Got these boxes yesterday.....
