Woody...The bride and I attended a car show and the announcer read from a list like that...He had one for Duesenberg but I missed it because I was laughing so f'n hard at Chrysler..😁
I`d never advocate drugs,alcohol,violence or insanity to anyone...But they work for me.

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been around.

See you soon. God Bless you all. 🙏

Well Stan, maybe the flats would be better off there...OK just joking.... I missed that while watching the cool parts... Good thing at least one old guy is paying attention around here...

Thanks guys. I have neglected the project to a degree because I get disheartened.
Then I'm trying to earn a few bucks to survive but I have my mojo back so I'm getting back to work.
This sport is expensive from a South African perspective, 15:1 is no joke but hey I have to deal with it.

If I tell you things are bad here then worry. We're doing OK thanks.
Being present on the forum is a good thing. It kept me motivated and excited.
I'll be spending more time here from now on if you guys can put up with the whining?.
It's in my DNA.  :-)

Thanks brother. Guys say life got in the way, It did.
I need this project. It's my life. I've got crazy stuff going on here
and all to do with making bucks to afford the Sodium addiction.

Got a fixed wing drone in the works with an 8' wingspan that can carry
35lbs and stay aloft for 6 hours based on the calculations by the genius.
I found a cool way to recharge batteries in flight. Got some African dudes
on board as investors and if it flies I'll buy 4 sets of MT rubber and get over there to take delivery in person.

I'll be back with news on the long car once I move the 280Z project. It's cramping my style.

Mike, building a streamliner alone & with Fu(# all money will run you into burnout more times than you can count, I know mate, I am that soldier. :?  You just have to back off, gather up what's left of your sanity & go back in swinging for another round.
I moved out of the house & into the shop when I started building my big long pile of parts so I could get more done, that was 13yrs ago & I work on it virtually every day. It's been so long I see stuff that the "other" Sid built! :-D
I'm in outback America but you're more like outback of the world down there so to me your achievements are even greater. Just pace yourself & try to see your accomplishments & successes rather than focusing on the mountains ahead. Remember Mate, one bite!
