High Noon: Get ‘Er Done

Ah, Jeannie, don’t hold your breathe… we have been a proud owner of a 1947 Ford pick up. It came with a faded yellow paint job. It sat in a friends garage for 3 years. It has sat in our garage, and been torn into pieces, for 7 years. The box is up against the garage wall, the cab is across the garage wrapped like a baby in a blanket, it is finally…finally painted. The fenders are upstairs in the garage. I don’t know where the bumpers are, I suspect they are under the platform that the cab is on. And the flat head engine is swing on a chain from the ceiling. The trannie is on the floor in the corner. And the frame is outside of the garage. And I am still waiting. And every year we have the Lost in the 50’s, I tell him, next year, I want the truck in the parade/ Cis , From A Simple Mind. More here .

Question: Does your husband/boyfriend have an old beater project that has been cooling its heels in the garage or side yard for at least a year? How can you encourage him to “get ‘er done”?
