hehehehehehehehehehehe
yeah the shed will happen this year, but the driveway's first.
today Dad and I spend the day up at the farm, stripping the body off the superbug and cutting the floorpan in half so we can use the bits on my baja and my sister's street bug. I reckon about 40% of the bolts/nuts were rusted and seized and snapped off skinning your knuckles. And the STOOPID previous owners had patched up the pan with large plates of steel (no problem,OK) but they hadn't bothered to cut out the rusting section of floor first and had just riveted the plates underneath (big problem). Consequently the entire floor would sag when you stood on it. ALso they obiously had a section of the heater channel rust out on the passenger side up the front. The peice of plate they welded in was fine enough but for some reason the welded about a foot and a half of the heater channel to the floorpan. So here we are with every nut and bolt off and all wiring clear, lifting and jumping up and down and it won't come off cause it's welded down. !!!!!!! Fun.:thumb photos of my driveway tomorrow...
