I get people all the time asking me "why would you own a vehicle older than
you?" then when they find out all the work and money i have involved, they
get even more confused. Well I can honestly say it's all about the community
(well, mostly).
I drove across the country with the confidence that whatever happened, i'd
have a friend near enough to help and a group giving me suggestions and
support. Not only that, i have had the great pleasure of meeting some truely
wonderful people through this community and stay with them across my travel,
I am still AMAZED by the hospitality of this community!

I'm a college student that asked for an oil pan for christmas.
I think i have a problem.....
