Made Myself Something For Once

[kmmcrafts]

Made a clock of the car I'm building.. 

BUT, now that I made it and the local performance shop owner that specializes in these cars is really into these little Chevy Cobalt SS Supercharged cars and has been consulting me a little on my build.. well I may just give it to him since he has helped steer me in the direction I'm going with my street / track car and has saved me a ton of money.. he could have sold me a lot of parts I really didn't need, LOL

Anyway, cut from Cherry using a FD-UR #5 balde.

Super Job!! I do that myself from time to time. Just recently I made myself a Pipe stand and ashtray.

 It looks like you could not have given him a better gift if you shopped for days in a store for something. Hey, You can always find time to make one for yourself too.

Yeah, always was a kid that liked cars... had my first car to fix up at 12 years old and had it ready for the road in 4 years when I finally was old enough to drive " legally " on the road.

Yes, I'll make another one someday.. If not, I felt good to give it to someone that'd appreciate it and one who had helped me..

Speaking of cars, My son was in Boise, Id. the other day. coming our of the Hotel he stayed in and saw this... The young man getting into is was the valet.  I son told him to relax no pressure.. The kid was really nervous bout driving it.  This was always one of my dream cars...

I'd have been nervous too, I like cars and love driving old cars etc.. but only if I'm the owner.. I have a friend that is always wanting me to test run his car after he's done some performance stuff to it etc.. I don't care if it's an old clunker, that old clunker is someone's pride and joy or their only means to get around.. and my luck it'd break or someone crash into me etc.. so yeah.. I prefer not to drive others cars..
