Re: my 1965 c30

i found the same excact glass on ebay last night new for $150 but that didnt include gasket shipping and not to mention professional instalation yeah great score im glad. only thing that could have made it better is if i would have been there when the glass guy showed up and saw my 1965 shed laying on the driveway would have loved to see his face DD

Re: my 1965 c30

yeah man im very fortunate things are crazy out here i was very lucky to loose power just for one night but there are still sooooooooooooooooo many people entire neighborhoods in the pitch black so many traffic lights out and people just about killing each other for a few drops of overpriced fuel and no the cold weather is here and to top it off were getting a nasty storm on wednesday i almost feel bad about touching my project at this point.
