I find that when I finally get a chance to get out in the garage to work on my 57, something happens to shorten my time. Case in point...yesterday, after spending way too much time doing absolutely nothing, I decided to get the 57 running, back it out of the garage and paint the dash. I had a couple of issues getting it started but I got the Beast into the driveway and painted the dash. That's when a friend drove by, saw me in the drive, and stopped by for some idle chatter -- which I am quite adept at myself!

Well, I couldn't ask him to leave, so I tinkered a little, but didn't want to get too involved with him there so all I did was get sweaty (it was about 90 degrees out) and NOT get any work done! Finally, after about an hour and a half he left and I had just enough time for a little more tinkering and then back into the garage she went.

Not a real productive day! Hard to complain about friends stopping by, but it'd be nice if they'd LEAVE so I could get something done! I'm sooo ungrateful :(

thats right if you stop by and want to look at the classic when i'm working on it, you will get your hands and clothes dirty because you can always use another set of hands.

Thats ok. You need a friend like mine, he came out yesterday and we worked on my house all day. Of course payday will come when it`s my turn to help him.
