Finding my 10mm was easy when I owned a bug, that was basically the only size they used on the whole car so it was the only wrench in my set that had grime on it.

The "back room" of the shop I work at: The red coupe in the foreground is a 1948 Chevy Fleetliner, on the lift is a 1951 Ford Victoria, in the background is a 1956 Chrysler Imperial, and under the cover is my boss' 1966 Pontiac GTO. Aside from the GTO, these are customer cars that we're either waiting for parts and/or authorization for repairs.

Saw a couple of neat cars today. First we have this pristine  In the driveway, we have.. something French. They said it was a 2 cylinder air cooled FWD of some sort. Interior looked mint, didn't look under the hood as I was somewhat in a hurry (was on a delivery).

Owners seemed pretty cool, they were sitting in the garage drinking beer when I walked up.

Am I reading the article wrong, or do they start talking about the high school shop teacher who owns it, then immediately switch to some other guy who actually built it? Kind of lame that an auto shop teacher is driving a car he didn't build.

Find someone on Etsy who makes stuffed animals and ask if they'll make you one.
