hello. I'm still here. Doesn't look like anyone missed me...
Four tires are all scraped. One wheel is 'degreased'. Gross. Very dirty on the inside (under the car side) of the wheel. Guess I'll get to the others in a bit. Just sent the hoodlums off to their cousins' birthday party. Finally get the computer. What a wild day. Kindergarten graduation, end of year party for 2nd grader, and the hoodlums were scattered all over..... Lots to do, lots to do. Finally all done with school. Sorry you're not done, yet, Mike! Boys finished exams yesterday. Moody boy did fine; mostly A's, couple of B's. Smartie boy made all A's. Got to go to lunch with the school president for all A's all year. (He's the one that thinks he's a cool dude, and will get the cobra - don't think so....)
little cobra girl went to grandparents after graduation, think she needed some TLC. dragged hither and yon around here.... big girl went to six flags over texas with a friend. will be home shortly. Scrapbook tonight!!! better get out there and wash the other 3 wheels. After this step, will spray paint the inside of the tire black - to cover up the goodyear/eagle on the inside. too much trouble to scrape that off, too! Then comes the tire black stuff. then paint the letters back on. Should be done this weekend. I'll keep ya posted. Gary got his csx car from shelby today. He is really pumped. Called me twice!!! Once to say he wanted his jack stands back.
Suggested he go buy new ones, and I would pay for them. Save him mucho time and trouble coming over here and jacking up my car, replacing his stands with new ones I haven't bought yet, and then taking his home. What a hassle. Just buy new, and I'll pay him back. He had an extra hour today, so he did just that. Might go over in the a.m. to check it out. He doesn't think it'll be ready for Tulsa.
He got the car (the first time) the night before we all left for Tulsa LAST YEAR. bummer. Anyway, he said the car looks 10x better than the first time. I'm soooo glad it got fixed correctly.
hmmm. who keeps posting while I'm typing? I've gotten 2 email notifications that someone has posted to this thread- all while I'm typing away. Will put pics in gallery of tire progress. Couple of cute ones..... Will add them to thread eventually.
