if she understands YOU, then she'll "get" your passion. That's what matters.

... one of the bolts that hold the AC compressor bracket is a cylinder head bolt 
... and it's one that threads into a coolant passage 
All I wanted to do is stop the darn oil leak...
Or:
Transmission no worky in Low. Pressure diagnosis necessary.
Main circuit diagnostic port identified.
Plug in said port removable only by using a slinky wrench 
Can I get my pressure gauge connected - no
Can I get my hand in between the x-shaped frame and the transmission - no
I built an extension for an 1/8 NPT port; Claudia's hands were small enough to reach up there and install it.
the good thing: Pressure on the main circuit within specs...
Of course, now it leaks from the port extension...  |
Strange. My '68GTO had all the bells and whistles. EVERYTHING was easy to get to....

I cant speak of all my other old rides, they were bare bone basics.
Including my current 64 GTO. I swear you could tear apart that car so fast with a 9/16 and a 1/2. The only difficult part I have on that one is the top shock mount on the rear axle. Just not a lot of space between it at the trunk floor.

What you'll find out is with the boxer twin is it ain't no iron-butt 1200 mile day. It's more like being forced to sit in the comfy chair.

I could not claim that sanity reigns in my family
my brother runs an HO model train track around the perimeter of his bedroom
my sister took up politics to do something against letting the local dogs run free in the park - where her boys play soccer and step in the shit all the time
my landlady mother insists at age 80 that haggling with the contractors keeps her invigorated 
and me, I am just a freak as it were

No.

That would sure shake things up though, wouldn't it?

that's very nice. Except for why on Earth does Sean do that overexaggerated smile thing? Just smile and be done with it. Lovely kids and lovely mom. Oh, and what's up with the "leisure suit" look--with shirt collar outside jacket?

My grandpa was building up a collection. He had one from every year after WWII til '65. All low mileage. '65 is when he married my second grandma and he sold all of the old ones off.
