    Just trying to get by,

    Was getting close to retiring, would have time to restore my 51 pickup, and just take it easy,
    Then it happen! my back went out & changed all that. Now 6 yrs. later after 2 operations,
    I am trying to restore my truck, & all that good stuff, it is hard with a bad back, but I told them,
    at least I can still walk & you are not cutting on me no more... I worked as at truck driver, over the
    road for years. Then in 87 went back to auto repair till 94 & on to heavy equipment up to 2010,
    that is when it all changed. So here I am today think about making a hot tank to clean engine parts,
    out of a 275 gal. oil tank. that is about it. all ready said to much about my self
