Been awhile since I've been able to do anything other then work and work on equipment. I haven't been able to build or work on any projects for over a year now. Going to have to get in the shop some how.

Anybody else having the same problems? Live getting in the way?
 
I have not worked on my rat since 3-2014 . Ive been busy on other stuff and when I do have time the weather is bad or my back hurts or something. Im not giving up though.I hope 2015 will be the year ,I get it together.
 
Used to, but ...

I was having problems, as many know, but got my life back and getting things done, which is REALLY great !!! There had been too many complications going on, but once those were settled, it is now back to FUN TIME !!! :)
 
Hasn't been that long, about Oct-Nov, but sure seems longer. No $$$ for stuff, just work and pay bills. Things are getting paid off now, weather is trying to get better, so maybe soon I'll be out there turning wrenches and beating on stuff.
 
Been building OP's rides and mine sits in the end of the shop.
That's how I make my money so no complaints here.
 
Ill get my stuff together one day and stop buying other projects and finish the ones I have in my shed ..... ...... ...... ....... but when that deal of a life time comes up .... boy thats hard to pass up ........ I am going to get a gas tank and sending unit this weekend for my 65 f-100 its roached out full of rust and the sender is gone!!! ,,, I still say miss ethol done it ... and a radiator and hoses for the 97 Ford 150 Im getting some overtime this week ,, ya hooooo :D
 
Haven't had anybody cutting on me but I did get bit by the teardrop bug ..been spending the winter building one , it's not the Willys but I'll get back to that come spring ( I hope ) .:rolleyes:
 
Part of my frustration is that I have almost everything to build four complete builds. I just need a t case for my jeepster, nothing to build a all Mopar dually rat truck with a 440, I have everything to build a Chevy speedster with a international flat 6 drivetrain, and everything to build one of my other cabs into a rat truck. By "everything" I mean I have all the major components, axles, drivetrain, frame or frame material, and steering gear box, etc. I just need the small things for the most part.
 
Seems life has gotten me off track a lot lately....

Been a real struggle with the in-laws having to live with us and my two boys having financial issues.....but things have settled down a bit so hoping that here and there, I'll get back up to speed....I thank the Lord every day for helping me stay healthy and safe and that each of you can fix those things that keep you from doing the things you love....Amen....:D
