Re: [BaadAssGremlins] @#$%^& Tool Failure

[AMC74HORNET@xxxxxxxxx]

There is 3 months till May 1'st. The problem is not having a heated
garage. I may see about renting a spot in my friends shop for a few
days. Call it an advantage or disadvantage being disabled however you
look at it but I have almost nothing to do 7 days a week but work on the
parts for this interior job. Although I am a bit slow. I just keep
plugging along at a steady pace. I wish you were closer as I have a
couple of pieces from  the hatch area  that need to be sand blasted.

DOc,
Take it easy and don't over do it or you will have to
take a few weeks off. Better to pace yourself at your
bodys level and take your time. You do have lots of
cold weather left.
