good news everybody


I don't have to put the car in a storage unit.

My mom said I can park it in the driveway, under a car cover so the association doesn't whine.

So, tommorrow I'll get the glass from my parts car and put it on my car and then fiddle with the drop window in the passenger side door and roll it out of the garage so she can start putting crap in there.

I will also wrap the car in a tarp since I do not trust those door seals and to make sure the interior stays mold free, some Damp Rid.

woo

Plus I need to even see if I can like work on my car in the unit.
I paid half that in '94 - but still..

Get one of those "tarp shed" instead of a car cover.
