MacGyver would be so pleased.

That must be a C++ clamp.

i like the ships wheel!

I like the whole thing, but the ship’s wheel is my favorite.

He, Bleeb.

dude….. are you going to park this on mount Ararat?

If the thing won’t pass the emissions test, you’re still out of luck.

Any father would be proud to see his daughter’s new BF show up in that chariot.

The older ones were built with pride and built to last anyway. ;D

It may make more sense to him … but most people wouldn’t even call what he is doing “fixing up”.

Looks like instead of parting it out, he’s parting it in.

Never been more true.

Looks like Red Green’s car, except Red’s car has more duct tape…

At least it seems to be rust free!

I’ve owned a few cars like that.

Well now there’s something I’d like to see. A parade of Red Green’ed cars. Not just duck tape either.(yeah I know ""duct"", but duct isn’t funny)

Added bonus – the kids never ask to borrow the car!

Now THAT’S what I’m talkin’ ‘bout!!

I am gonna figure out how to put a door knob on my passenger door!

Just how much of that is still “car”?

Well, I’m going back to the horse and carriage!

I have a preferred customer card at the local DIY salvage yard. They scrap a dozen of mine every week, so I get my choice of parts.

Get the new convertible powered by your foot speed. No key needed. Just a password. I believe it’s “yabadabadoo”?

Apparently he has never heard pf scrap yards.

That looks like the inspiration for another Johnny Cash song.

Hi Bleeb!!!!!!! Glad you’re helping out. At least it’s not held together by bumper stickers. :)

The guy knows how to adapt. You got to give him that…..

That would be an adventure to ride in. If one likes adventures.

I agree..

Yeah, especially when you consider how they may be outlawing gas cars in the near future… Why spend all that $$ and not end up getting your money’s worth ?
