Put down that wrench..........
...........and pick up that saw!
A week or so ago I mentioned in a thread that I'd parted out a nice '40 Ford sedan project I'd gotten in a trade deal. My biggest concerns were finding a buyer for both the body shell and the frame since they were both pretty big. I figured the frame would be easier since it had a good title and so many of them are rotted but this one is as nice as I've ever seen (it would have been great to have one this nice when I started the '36 roadster). Well, it worked out easier than I thought as buyers for both stepped up. This frame is going to Hawaii, but in order to go in the container it needs to be crated. Since I have the tools I offered to help the buyer out, and he was good enough to send some money for my effort. Not nearly enough, but I am getting paid better than when I work for myself!

It's much easier to promise someone a "free" ride on the wagon than to urge them to pull it.
Luck occurs when preparation and opportunity converge.

".......So sanded it all down and resprayed. ......" Been there. done that on a couple of paint jobs over the years. Usually took me a couple of days to get over being mad before I started...
