    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.
