Nothing to report lately. The month of May was a bust. I had surgery for a hernia, and had my gall bladder removed both at the same time. 3 weeks recovery time, then went back to work rolling into June, and they had a major emergency which required me to work 12 hour days for about a month straight. Then the summer heat hit us. Its been in the 100s temp wise since then. I refuse to go and cook myself out there.
This car was sold to me on a hand written bill of sale. The good news is after doing all the pain in the *** paperwork to get a Vermont transferrable registration, and licence plate, I finally walked into my Texas DMV and got a receipt document for transferring it into a regular Texas title. This is a major piece of this puzzle. It will help this project a lot.
I coulda went thru Texas with this, but they rewrote the title laws for bonded titles. What a pain in the *** that has become. I believe they rewrote it because of all the ID10Ts building these ScrapRods that look like rolling refugees from the recycling yards, made out of tack welded together junkyard ****. I think it was written this way to deter this type of shenanigans, but doesnt help me doing a restoration. I payed quite a bit more money to go the round about way to get a legit Texas title, however the end result was worth every penny spent.
