[BaadAssGremlins] Gremlin Garage II nearing reality in Virginia....

["Jerry" <gremlingts@xxxxxxxxx>]

  Due to my Aunt's farm being sold ( anyone want 1,000 acres, a Civil-
war era mansion, and loads of virgin woods and open space, for 
$4,000,000 ? ), and I can't afford it, so my cars ( all 15+ of them 
down there ) will have to move or be forfeited. I am working on 
acquiring some property near there, I plan on saving 8-9 vehicles of 
my own. Several AMC parts vehicles may not survive or make the trip 
whole ( or even as parts ). Time to seriously pare down my fleet now. 
  My DAd's 2nd cousin has a pretty ideal piece of real estate, for 
$18,000, it's a steal considering I live around Wash. DC area, which 
that won't buy you a fresh Star Bucks coffee, it seems these days. So, 
if all goes well, in a few weeks, I will be the proud owner of some 
more dirt and a leaky building. A steal, considering the timing and 
location of it, 8 miles from the farm. And relatives nearby to boot, 
to keep an eye on it while I'm living 3 hours away. 
  The building has a rear cinderblock, concrete-swathed attached room 
about 18 x 35 feet, concrete floor as well, it needs a BIG hole 
knocked into it to make a garage out of it, but not undoable. I hope 
to get a big steel I-beam mounted above the opening, and worry about 
doors later. Also get a 8-foot high fence enclosure built to keep out 
the unwanted as well. 
  Do to an early inheritance ( thanks, Mom! ), I can afford to save my 
fleet stored at my aunt's farm. Only 2 obstacles left; making sure I 
have the TIME left to save them, and get the ink dry on the contract 
and deed. If those two things happen, I'll be a very happy guy! 
  Sadly, the 2nd Gremlin GT will probably become parts, as in the last 
3 years it has rusted past saving, I think. Finally got a chance to 
see it a few weeks ago, and it was in pitiful condition, Ohio started 
the rust, but Virginia has finished it off, I will pull the Levi 
interior out, some parts, and scrap the chassis. Sad , but it's too 
far gone now. AT least for me to try to save it. So, there ends my 
tale, hopefully it'll have a happy ending in a month or 2, when it 
will hopefully be all over with. Not counting any chickens here, but 
hoping that it will go smoothly and with very little trouble. Wish me 
luck,

Jerry in Virginia, trying to ( as always ) save AMCs...
