      to the women

      Just want to say thanks the the women to get out in the garage and help on the cars. My wife was in the garage with me till 1am even tho she had to be at work at 7am. I could not seem to get the upper control arms off with out some help. All my buddies were to drunk at 11pm to drive over and help mean while i to drunk to drive over to help them if they asked. She is awsome thanks to all the ones out there will sacarfice sleep to help get a car ready before a show. Even tho its still about 2 months away. Just need to make sure its done every project takes longer than expected with me.

      Maybe being drunk is what hindered the control arm removal? Perhaps you should thank her for being sober! haha

      Congrats on having a cool wife!

      A cool wife makes all the difference in the world! My wife has progressed from watching me work on the car to helping me work on the car to photographing me (and friends) at events to now driving one of our cars at events!

      I couldn't be any happier!

      Here's me and Carol at the 2011 Motor State Challenge following the Friday cruise...

      I fully agree. It not only makes thing go smoother and easier it is just more enjoyable to be able to share that time together, wether in the garage, or car or at an event.

      DOH!

      My wife could care less about cars. Just put gas in it & go. Oh well, I still love her.

      Do you still believe in all the things that you stood by before? Are you out there on the front lines, or at home keeping score?
      Do you care to be the layer of the bricks that seal your fate? Would you rather be the architect of what we might create?

      My wife is awesome. The wagon is "her car" and she drives it way more than I do. Heck she will drive that ANY day over the Escalade! LOL. She has been under it and was speckled with POR 15 all over her face (for days if you had messed with it before!). She was helpin me bleed the brakes the day before her due date on out first boy, which is actually what brought her into labor! LOL!
