Default Man's got me workin...

my *** off. Geesh, I feel like I'm never on here anymore. What's everyone up to? Jack of all trades at the new shop I'm at already. It's crazy but I like the checks. Got me a new car last night. 1990 VW Jetta. She's cherry, no rust, totally clean interior, just a little ding on the left front that I am ordering parts for off Ebay already. Got me another project. Still ain't got the new bars on the Fatboy either. Geesh, I better get on those too!! So wassup??

Glad you're keeping busy. I'm still waiting to get my bike from the dealer. Had the stage 1 installed last week but weather not cooperating. Hope to have it back this week some time. Won't be able to ride but can't wait to fire it up and listen to the new exhaust.
Good luck with the new car.

Just keep working man....you have a wedding trip to pay for.....plus that jaunt to Philly.....right? Don't trick out the VW, put some lift to it and throw some mud boggers on....then tear through those corn fields in Iowa.

Hope all is falling in place with the new job. Take care.

New job is pretty cool. They seem to appreciate my work ethic, and it's nice to work with what's left of my hands. I look like I got in a fight with a mountain lion. Almost gone through a box of band aids in 2 weeks!!

hey phatboy whats your plans for the jetta?

i had a 2000 jetta glx with a couple mods to it, but ended up having to trade it in because I got married and the wife didn't like manual, so we have a '03 acura tl. now she wishes we waited so we could've got the new hemi durango.. oh well... i'm into jeeps too, had a wrangler before my jetta... lifted, 32's... fun..

Not a lot. I'm not looking to juice it up a lot. Just got all my parts to put the front end together, radiator support, headlights, etc... From there probably just a set of rims and tires to make it look nice. No other plans. I looked into some old jeep CJ7's and that before the jetta, but they would have gotten too pricey!!
