I haven't been around much lately, I bought a house and have been moving. Yesterday was a landmark day though - for the first time for sure in 25 years (maybe more), the Del Rio spent the night in a garage. She looked so good sitting on the flatbed truck - I saw several neighbors come out to take a look.

It will probably be quite a while before I can work on it again, but at least she's inside and sure looks cool sitting on the ground. I never liked to leave it on the ground at the other house because it would have been so easy for someone to just tow it off.

Congratulations on the house.  I must agree that cars look better on the ground than elevated.  It may be some time before I get mine back to ground level.

 Did you move very far? I'm sure glad my '57 was on the road when my wife decided it was time for a change of scenery. I've managed some road trips and a few shows, but a far cry from what I had hoped this summer would be like. Like you, mine does have a nice garage now.
Ha....electrical, plumbing, painting, brickwork, finish carpentry, drywall finishing, wallpaper, etc etc. At least all this work is getting me in better shape than I was.
Oh well, I was just typing this while I was giving my arms a rest. back to plastering.
I can do this, I can do this, I, well, maybe
