The JOYS of getting OLD

[Felineman]

SOOOOOOO after a long long time I return to a favorite site. I have moved back to Hamilton and have a new shop in Smithville, nice 50-60 barn with a 14 foot tall door, will post some pics when I get new battery for camera, hasn't worked right since last winter off-grid. Still have motorhome, bike and Terrajet all NOT completed. lost right hand pinky finger and left hand is slowly healing after a flesh eating infection from a 1/32 inch nail head poked the skin healed but 3 weeks latter I woke up and my hand was 4 times it size, so PLEASE be careful and always be safe in work and play. Had 22 teeth pulled all at once and have had MAJOR nerve pain from what I'm told was 20 years of un-treated diabetes that I didn't even know I had but am slowly getting under control, was so bad I could barely walk to bathroom. So ya I got the FULL 12 ROUNDS with ever damn thing they could throw at me and currently trying to get Hypotension under control, I stand up too quick and my blood pressure drop to 60 and I in turn KISS the floor, very tired of broken noses 4 times in last 6 months, thank god I have no teeth to knock out. so YA GETTING old Sucks, FOR ALL YOU youngins "LISTEN TOO YOUR ELDERS" because when you get old they will still laugh at you from heaven or hell.

BUT I AM BACK and looking to CREATE HELL ON EARTH I got years more of experience little more tools and enough space and spare materials to do some really CRAZY "scheiße"

Currently looking into a 500 HP engine swap on a car I wanna buy 1991 Chev Sprint Convert (Geo Metro, Suzuki Swift, Pontiac Firefly, Suzuki Forsa) with a "STANDARD" trans too bad its only a 4 speed, and not even half as good as the Honda Civic had. I would swap it ALL out for a small block or V6 with manual trans and REAR wheel conversion with FULL frame. Body is OK no major structural issues, other then that slowly getting shop set up and getting myself back to a healthy state, Its getting late and I can no longer do the 3 am party.

So I shall sign off and leave you with some funny pics.

Well that deal fell through but Oh Well, maybe next time. Been doing wiring and more insulating of new/old shop will post some pics on the weekend, Move into a 50x50 barn so I now have 4 times the size I had before but its a 80 year old barn that news major work to be usable in the winter months. Still looking for new projects all the time son will keep you all posted on what I find.

Well its been awhile since I updated this post. I'm back to work on the shop after 7 trips to the hospital and losing a finger on right hand and half of the palm on my left hand due to infections, Blood pressure is so what under control and slowly getting the insulation and skid wood on the walls and finally got enough steel to make a 29 foot beam and slowly making a 12 foot ceiling installed so I don't have to try and heat a (45) YES forty five foot ceiling :O

and finally have the other half of my loft done, I'll post some pics IF I remember to take them, Been trying to get everything ORGANIZED YA RIGHT I live in a "Organized CHAOS" ask me where something is and I';; say "Its in that pile" so its gonna be ceiling loft moving stuff around and slowing organizing everything and trying to find a place to put everything in its place. Still have motorhome motorcycle and buggy but haven't done anything to them in couple years and most likely won't till spring and right now I really need the get my ceiling done and insulate the walls in at least half the shop and install the tube heater so I can stand the cold this winter, So with that I'll leave you all waiting till I post some pics.

as you can see I've been busy too bad the work isn't going as fast as most of my other projects have been fighting low blood pressure and and other health issues.

Just don’t die in there, they’d never find you! Low blood pressure can be worse than high blood pressure.
