    Painfully went to a car show yesterday. (My back has been _way_ out since the 3rd...)
    But look at what I saw!:D
    Just thought I'd share...;)

    A LOVELY Jimmy !

    I especially like the two toned bit , woulda used less yellow in the green paint but that's a common mistake these days .

    FWIW , I HATE dope but I know all too well crippling back pain , try various different painkillers as each person's phyiology is different and there's one out there that'll give you blessed relief and not make you woozy .

    In times of crisis , I take Vicodin ~ too often and it loses it's effect so be wary .

    Nate, you over looked the obvious! There's just the right amount of yellow in that green because that is John Deere green. I'll bet he got the green and yellow at his local John Deere implement store!

    Nothing runs like a Deere!;)

    Duh !


    (smacks forehead) That is _so_ obvious now that you mention it.... :eek:

    :p

    You'd think a guy who spent years working with JD Model A & B tractors from the 1930's would know this.....

    You got it, Big Brother

    We have a winner! This truck even had some JD floor mats. I just kinda wished it had the original 6 banger in it. Maybe he got the truck without a block and decided to stick the Vnate in there.:confused:

    Pain

    That's true! I'm sure what pain I have wouldn't come close to what you've been through, Nate!
    I at least know how it happened. I had built my garage door and had set it up the way I thought it could work. However, the higher it went, the more it would bind on its rollers. I took the rollers off to lift the door manually to see where the problem was coming from. I found out. I pushed it up and out. Gravity pushed it back my way as I was fully extended. That was all one of my discs in my lower back needed. Yesterday was the first day I skipped pain pills. It was my best day to date. Hope it keeps getting better, this week my room is full of third grade students!:eek::D

    ... and the pain will move south from your back.

    Now try painting murals with about 10 to 15 3rd graders with wet paintbrushes.....and the attention span of a horney gnat.

    Life Of Pain

    I do lots of physical therapy , it doesn't help the pain much but it has certainly made me more flexible , this is a good thing ! .

    Last night I attacked the alternator on one of my old Mercedes' , it's like doing a Chinese Puzzle , will finish it up to-night as part of pain management is pacing your workload , not when we were 20 and could juggle a whole shop full of brake & clutch jobs :rolleyes:

    I'm just happy to be alive at this point .

    Same thing but different

    I think this might be a F@#! - but more obvious on the paint job.
