Fired up the 47 rat rod today
« on: March 15, 2012, 02:37:35 PM »
Well, i have one day off at this point in the game, feeling better after being sick for 10 days. So today, being 66*f outside, i threw a battery charger on the ole 47 and fired her up....sounds awesome.

I too decided to go get my license plate decals for the rest of the year, and now i can drive the rat too. Maybe depending on the rest of the afternoon, i may take the ole rat for a quick ride around the town........oh i am so ready.
