Well, Looks like I’m Going Straight to Hell

I don't remember any of those in the Bible - Except perhaps coveting anything that belongs to your neighbor.

...if the wife is home.

Actually, I did an electrolytic rust removal on a fender in the front bathroom bathtub.

[Getter-Done]

Right, I got a divorced (32 yrs) not even midway into my restoration. It was awesome, by example I packed a ton of parts in my master bedroom. I thought the benchseat was a real nice touch. Not sure my girlfriend loved the decore though, I don't care
