    Well damn, guess I won't be buying parts for awhile!

    When I did it in the 90s it was a mixture of things, some were high-rise, but even on those I was just expected to hang out on the ground. I would either get killed or get in trouble doing security in this town.

    Be aware....be thankful.

    I had a friend who worked for 50 years for an auto repair shop run by my best friend. He never talked about his war experience, I found out after alzheimers took him, from his daughter. A small man, he was a pretty good professional boxer. He enlisted the week of Pearl Harbor, went to Africa...

    If you can get back into construction security, that should pay well, isn’t that usually around high-rise buildings though?

    Well damn, guess I won't be buying parts for awhile!

    I made a joke about that in the last meeting I ran. I wouldn’t do it tho even if I wasn’t in my mid 50s, my feelings on that are more complex than some would assume and that’s all I’ll say at the risk of this taking a political twist.

    Well damn, guess I won't be buying parts for awhile!

    Thanks. I had a short career in construction because my dad did it and told me I’m doing it too until I find another job, and yes there was always the gap between jobs. After that I moved to construction security which could still have gaps. A good thing that I carried with me into the high...

    That sucks, maybe it was meant to happen and a new door will open up. Good luck, you can always apply to be an I.C.E agent. $50,000 sign on bonus, that will buy a lot of parts. You can always apply for unemployment.

    Brought this beauty home today. 69 coronet.

    The 69 had the best looking tail end of the Darts IMO. Especially if you add the GTS blackout panel minus the GTS badge of course.

    Aftermarket or late model seats in Early B body cars

    I actually like the look of my stock seats but the SRT4 seats are more comfortable, they hold me in place, are lighter and the wife is more comfortable. Oh yeah, they recline too.

    Aftermarket or late model seats in Early B body cars

    Yeap, I have Corbeaus in my Corvette, some kind of Scion seats in the Ranchero and Procar seats in the Coronet. Except for the Dodge they don’t really match but I’m still happy every time I sit in them. It’s better for my back and makes the drive more enjoyable for me.

    I’m sure someone here had a pair of these in there early b-body. Not adjustable but more upright and not a bad price. Low-Back Front Seat | Rugged Ridge

    Well damn, guess I won't be buying parts for awhile!

    For those people fortunate enough to work in an industry that isn't ripe for corporate buyouts, a layoff like this is a shock. Guys that have worked in the trades are USED to layoffs. The project ends, the next one hasn't started yet so there is down time until the next job is up to speed. That...

    Be aware....be thankful.

    I grew up with stories from the other side, my dad was a little boy in WW2 Germany. He said one day someone came to the house and said his older brother is big enough to serve, he ended being killed when they moved on Russia. Same trip they pointed at my dad and said he was old enough to show up...

    Well damn, guess I won't be buying parts for awhile!

    I think this is my second layoff in 25 years, there was an in between not quite a layoff when a company knew they were close to being sued which is like half a layoff. I am gonna avoid anything with a long commute. I spent years commuting a couple of hundred miles a day, I’d hate to go back to...

    your favorite breakfast cereal?

    I don’t really eat breakfast but my fav cereal which I’ll occasionally have for lunch is Peanut Butter Capn Crunch with a table spoon of chunky peanut butter.
