There is nothing like building your own street rod!

If you think because we have a hot rod shop, we are any different than you, you are soooo wrong. Ken is trying to get his ’37 Chevy on the road. (He has had it under construction for 21 years.) We have paid some people to do things along the way. Usually, when he is frustrated because nothing is getting done and he really wants a ride! Some things have turned out perfect while others have been torn apart by Ken, because they were totally unacceptable. It turns out that every seemingly small project takes a month to finish! This car will be exactly what he wants when it is done. Suede black paint, since we don’t have time to repair paint jobs. Steel painted wheels with baby moons. (who has time to polish aluminum when you could be driving?) A comfortable interior that seats four so if we have time to go out with friends, they can just hop in!

Shall we mention reading the instructions? I heard the perfect solution from a girlfriend of mine! She stands next to the workbench and reads all the instructions out loud! He doesn’t have to read them and she remembers them! We here at ididit know that men only read instructions out of desperation. I understand why, after reading a few….some creative slang would be comic relief!!!!

On one of our many adventures with my panel truck, we had an electrical problem. When you go on a tour you have an advantage that there is always someone that has more knowledge than you do about some subjects. Lucky for us, we had an electrically skilled person on the tour. I told him the problem, he had a solution! He goes to his trunk to get his electrical tools. He came back to our truck carrying an old purse! He told us it was just the right size, had a handle, and protected his tools! This is a creative man who has no problems with his masculinity!

It’s okay to laugh at ourselves with others! A sense of humor is a must in hot rod. Have a great week!
