That would be cool. Gives me a date to shoot for. Blazer Bash is at the top of my list of places to go when it is finished.

I'm pretty sure it's in September every year so your goal should be around there.

I would offer to come help but I'm not sure I'm worthy to work on such a piece of art. :thumb::bow:

Thanks man. Help is always welcome. I don't know about work of art, but thanks.:D I am hoping that when the chassis is done and it is a roller that things will progress faster. So September might be doable will see.
 
So no updates on the build, my life is falling apart. Just confirmed my wife has been fooling around, so I will soon be getting a divorce. I can't imagine this situation playing out any worse. Don't really want to go into details or bash on my soon to be ex but it is bad. On top of and besides her actions we have a two year old daughter toghether. It tears me up thinking of how this will effect her.

So with every thing that has gone on and a divorce sure to come I will surely be losing my toys. If anyone thinks they would like to finish it let me know.
 
dam buddy


I'll be praying for ya....
 
Sorry to hear , but you might want to hold on to the project, its good breaking up therapy untill you find peace. Oh you will find peace though so hang in there.
 
Maybe someone close could "Buy" it from you to get it out of your name and after everything is over, they would let you buy it back... I would be willing to do something like that for someone in need... Basically just gives you a place to store it and keep it out of your name for a while... I'd hate to sell off everything I have too.... Sorry to hear about your situation... Good luck with it all...

I did something like this for a friend that was going through a divorce. He had a 67 Camaro that he would rather let me have than for it to go to some stranger if he had to sell it as a condition of the divorce.
He sold it to me for cheap, and his wife didn't balk at it. I had it for several years and did some restoration on it and had purchased quite a few original parts. Years later when I was talking to him, I could tell he really missed the car. He had driven that car through high school and college, so it had sentimental value to him.
I had several projects going on, so I offered to sell the car back to him for what I had into it. He was ecstatic...he has it going through a full restoration now.
He is the only person I would have sold that car too...if he had not wanted it back, I would still have the car. I know it will be difficult to ever find a great deal on a 67 Camaro again, but I feel better knowing he has the car back that meant so much to him.
 
I got plenty of land for storage man, i saw you had the crewcab up on clist, and if i had the cash id buy it. If you need any help with someone buying it, let me know, I got 30 acres out in the middle of nowherezistan.
 
I know everyone keeps offering to store it/ buy it for you temporarily so i'll be just another voice in the choir but i could stash it away for you out of state if you wanted... You do damn fine fab work and i'd love to have it sitting out at my place to try and pass it off as my own :whistle:

As far as your daughter is concerned, I know it doesn't feel like it but it's much better that it happens now while she's young. My uncle just went through a divorce because his wife was unfaithful and his daughter is 11. She has taken it really hard and is old enough to understand everything but not old enough to make sense of it and is really struggling. As hard as it is, it will be better for her to never have known any different and for her to have no idea the circumstances surround the separation, it's hard for little ears to here that their mom is a cheater and worse. I'm praying for you buddy and your daughter. Be sure and let the brotherhood know what we can do to help you...
 
Thanks for the support fellas. I don't know for sure what will happen with everything. I am just going to take everything one day at a time and try to make the best of it.

I get my little girl tomorrow. :D So that is good. Then back with her mom on Sun for mothers day.
 
That's good to hear man, hopefully you get to retain custody. Your a good guy and hopefully the sun keeps shining down on ya.

Is the crew still efi?
 
try to hang in and not let it stress you to he!! bud... I know it doesn't mean much but I've been EXACTLY where you are, been a weekend dad to my daughter since she was 3... it sucks, but is managable, and is what it is... I tried taking my ex back after 3 yrs, and as I should have known, that didn't work either...

and I hope you can find a way to store this rig till things get better... you where doing cool original stuff and I'm all about that... I'd love to root you on to finishing it....
 
Actually yes. Finished signing papers on the divorce today. It should be final in 30 days. Got split custody of my daughter. Hoping to get back to work on it soon.:D
