Really Boring Stuff Only II: Return of the Boredom

[craig7]

and this driving in VERY classy car (S550) but without class (roof ski mount) and stupid vanity plates
I took this pic this Saturday

Lol I hate that but I don't see an issue with the plates. Ab777... Nothin wrong with that. Although a s550 isn't considered VERY classy here, We got a few rolls Royce's, I've seen a few bentleys, and quite a few Lamborghini and ferrari's... Haven't seen any maybachs yet this year though. It sucks living in the "ghetto" of a city full of rich people, not a very bad place but it really makes you feel poor sitting in a caravan next to a Ferrari (happens rather often)

You can always get an old civic and makes some mods.

p.s: Just looked up base price of S550 - was surprised to see it only at about $90k

Still pretty classy

so I just got to work on a 1968 jaguar xj12... Sooo beautiful.

What kind of work were you doing on it?

What kind of work were you doing on it?

Stealing the stereo... He said he lives in the ghetto.

What kind of work were you doing on it?

mostly pushing it around a parking lot, figuring out how to open the hood, removing the hubcaps and anything of value for now. hopefully were gonna restore it. no stereo in it, but there was a clock... good song by the way...

Big day today.

I filled in the nail holes on my subs today with Minwax Blend-Fil Pencils.

I used 3 different shades.

Eddie thought it wasn't going to ever happen but I showed him.

.... figuring out how to open the hood,

You seem like the perfect candidate to do a restoration.

it wasnt as straightforward as you would think...

Set the emergency brake and chalk the wheels.

Yeah, thats a sick joke the British liked to play on the French* back in the 60's. Pulling the motor and re-doing the upholstery should be a piece of cake**.

**Sorry Alex

**Sorry Alex

I've got frozen cake in the fridge and I just bought milk. This is brutal.

 

[adwilk]

Word on the street is that you're *$#@%%^ starving.

Its just one piece of cake man.. and if you have one, you might as well have four.

The cake is going to make it through the night.

I'm curious...did it?

Insightful note to self: If the hood is this difficult for me to open, what will the restoration be like?...

I know it won't be easy... That's the fun part. Also I think it has a fiberglass body... Just a cool thing I noticed
