I tried calling you, many times.. sorry it didn’t work out…  Sounds like you and Franz have it figured out though….

So I need to dig up a thick lip parcel tray, get them old safari’s apart, side window frames apart, blasted worked, sealed and painted…  And then you reassemble right?..   Hang the two parts, do the fauztina.. bam.. You come get it… 😎

I am going to focus on getting this beetle painted and outta the dirty shop….  maybe next week.. 😎

I think I said “fuck it” a couple years back..  When my back was killing me….   I stopped setting myself up for success..

Well… I feel better, and I am remembering what things set me up for success, daily, monthly, financially…

The harder I work the more successful I am… 😎
