Joel needed a die grinder this morning. He owns Boss Interiors. His handiwork has won the Riddle Award . Always fun to see what he's up to. Today he is building a custom interior for a Chevy II convert.

My sympathy to you. It's heart-breaking to see a loved-one suffer a long illness, and a relief when his suffering ends, as much as we wish things could be different. He would want you to remember happy times. Praying for you and your family at this difficult time.
Needs a battery and a clutch.
The guy tried to say it just needed a clutch adjustment, but I think it needs a new clutch, so I talked him down $100 more for the kid... :evil3:
He went around his work (dealership porter) and asked all of the expert trans techs how to proceed... #-o
He's learning to go seek out expert advice when you don't know what to do next... :cheers:
That's cool.
We have an interior trim and glass shop here that does all kinds of stuff. I've seen them do custom interiors for boats with cushions and material from scratch.... It's an art...

Dang, weird weather. It's raining and there's a tornado warning for my area. Radar indicated not not one spotted though.

Had to ask.
Dannys car should be done today, I am glad I had Chuck(the guy that does bodywork) do it a rad support on a Cobalt is a *****! Be nice to have a car again, really weird not having one been using the Tikey truck up and down the street to his shop, Funny thing our local trooper jogs every morning and we wave to each other!
