When the express broke down for the last time i thought... "wow, now is my chance to restore it...yeah...back on the road by christmas ... TWO THOUSAND AND FIFTY!!!" Yeah, great idea, what a hobby... no stress minimal fuss...WHO WAS I F***ING KIDDING! Not happy with the paint... no drama just rub it back and respray the clear #@&@^%$# Get the sub frames blasted and powder coated... then whack em back in ... easy ... MY ARSE!!! Sorry folks just letting off steam!! Got my subframes back the other day... WRONG COLOUR! *@&%$#! Got them back again today and went to fit them (well the rear one anyway) and forgot that i havent got the *$%%^#ing rubbers yet!! Bastard car for sale $1.00 plus 10cents GST for those other bastards!! Thats my bit anyone else got a whinge? Cheers Bryan |

Step 1 , walk outside garage and scream as loud as you can (trust me , this really worries the neighbours .....) Step 2 , go to fridge and get something to drink (just lock all hammers and other large , heavy items away first .....) Step 3 , repeat step 2 Step 4 , repeat step's 2 and 3 Step 5 , and again for good measure Step 6 , eVVVerryyshhhings Boooooottteeefffull and sha Broody mini can wait ...... Step 7 , look at it again another day , make the bloody thing sit in the garage by itself and think about what it's done . |

Oh I feel for ya dude. I have lost count of the amount of times I have been "brought" to tears. Spose its all part of doing up an old car. I know this for sure though, I will restore 1 car in my life and 1 only. |

And when the car does get you to that point there's no point trying to keep going with it , just give up for the day and start again in the morning with calmer nerves . Otherwise you get frustrated and end up throwing something or kicking something and then you have another bit to fix . Yardarm's some part of the rigging on an old sailing ship , presumably high up so when the sun's over it , it must be around noon I'm guessing , no idea really but a common phrase . |
