Dont worry i know all about waiting for people to do things! The fibreglassers was supposed to be finished with mildred 2 weeks ago, and im still waiting!!

Seems no-one wants to do the work, but when you do find someone they take their sweet ass time cos they know they can get away with it!

yep

bin there...it seems like its gunna take forever some days

but once its on the road.....*ahhhhh* no feeling like it

I've been driving the one that drove me crazy like that for months now...and i love her to death.

Just be patient. It really will happen. and ask around for help. I found once i let it be known as to exactly what i needed, people came forward from everywhere to help me. Some just gave me new leads which was great. People are willing to help, if they know what you need.

cheers

Hi

One of things to do with a long term project is to try to do something every day, even if you just tidy up your tools.

Keep pluggin away, Vallas a way of yet, beer helps, but not Cowboys, had too many Saturday night and didint do much all Sunday.
