My son came back to help me out this summer, I am getting annexed to the city as light industrial. my taxes went from 900 to 2700. ouch takes a big bite out of my social security. I have a 40 by 120 shop with a 10 k 2 post lift, and 4 x 4 ft table lift. we had to build a 1/4 mile of 8 ft chain link fence and put in the plastic slats. they didn;t want to see the backhoe, dump truck , sawmill, project cars etc from the road. Junior decided to start on the 48 jeepster. it was supposed to be an easy swap to a blazer chassis. a real headache. He found a couple of international truck cabs for rat projects and a 37 olds sedan. We saw the wrecking yard owner in the store and he said he was crushing cars so he said to check out parts cars with a red X. My son ended up pulling radiators in front of the chrusher. traded for a 46 ford truck with a 54 lincoln engine , a46 international pickup, 2 big chevy cars with sbc- auto, 400-400 from a truck.. we bought a48 nash 4 door and 48 chevy fleetline 2 door 45 chevy truck... projects everwhere. he plans on building cars this winter,and selling a couple next summer.
