don't you hate it when...
don't you hate it when you have just spent 3/4 of an hour assembling a set of steel shelves, it all eyeballed nice and square, you've just
finished tinghtening down all the bolts so it is nice and sturdy, you walk away to put your tools back and happen to look back only to realize that
one end is actually really really crooked.

just had to get that off my chest

HEY! How do you know about my five year plan???
In five years... I will be living in a kombi in a caravan park, with three kids, to 3 different blokes... called Cletus, Hank and Jethro...
Ahh, well, ya gotta have plans 
I think Wolfie will have to have his own tent to keep the weather off him.

jay if you were doing the trailer park thing properly the wolf would have to be left in all weather with the windows open, (perhaps one smashed???)
the entire back seat area filled with near empty junk food packaging and beer/bourbon bottles and 6 months of collected grime/leaves covering it. to
get the right rust i suggest driving it into the ocean and not draining out any of the water from the sills/pan halves. half an hour with a shopping
trolley plus letting one of the many fathers drive it home drunk and side swipe a parked car should sort out the panelwork. i think that should get
the wolf to trailer park standards.
ps don't forget to make sure the ash tray is overflowing and there is a generous sprinkeling of buts through out the rest of the car.
pps on consideration, getting the wolf to that stage plus giving birth to all those children sounds a little too much like hard work....

Thanks for the tips whatnow :P... no way Wolfie is gonna have that done to him though. He gets his own tent. Better than what the rest of us (me
n' the kids :P) get to live in. He's had too much money and heartache poured into him to trash him.
It'll just have to be the one bit of non-trailer park in my life
