Todays task is to clean the car , storing the car parts when stripping has made a wee mess but nothing some elbow grease and my old henry cant fix.

Looking back now seemd like id hit the wall & i nearly scrapped the car , wasnt till i contacted the same fellas ive been using for a long time they swayed me & made me see even tough other things needed doing it was still cheaper to keep & repair , when they took the engine & box out it was so much better for them to work round , i hepled a little, most of the time they made me still & watch . Dodging the rain , being out in the wind , losing daylight , there other call outs they had to sort, plus people i dont know asking me if they can use my tools & giving me a mouthful when i said no sorry cost me a lot building up my tool set i dont lend out , i made that mistake when i was in my 20s lots tools never getting them back .. some people !
