Well, I’ve started sanding the Silver Fox to paint her.
And, well, as long as I’m replacing the rubber around the rear window,
I might as well pull the rear hatch off. That way I can paint around it
better.
Well, as long as I’m pulling the chrome off, I might as well pull off
the door handles. I mean, you can’t just paint a car and leave the door
handles on, you’ll notice the oversparay every time you open the door.
Yeh, it’s a bummer to pull the door panels just to get the handle, but
that’s the way it goes.
Well, its cleaner to pull the bonnet. Might as well pull it while I’m
at it.

Lloyd;

I saw your post and I thought I was reading my own writing. I sat here
today, after taking off the right sided carbs, and made the mistake of
dragging out pencil and paper to maybe help me organize my thought
processes…I started out writing things that I knew I wanted to do, and
like you I kept saying well while that is off I might as well------- just
thank god I came to my senses and that it was only on paper— I wasn’t
wanting a basket case .

As long as youre at it, you might as well get to the other stuff
beneath what
you are doing. You’ll have to eventually, anyway.
