Shame it’s not in central Ohio. I hear there’s an interest in this sort of thing there.

Can you double check the link? It doesn’t seem to work.

Cool. I didn’t know Aston Martin was that old.

All these years I’ve spent searching for barn finds and it never occurred to me to simply ask where they were.

Most likely a seagull post.

He was referring to me. Fortunately, he didn’t actually draw a line as it would have seemed strange at the time.

The next total eclipse is in August of ‘26, but it’s not in the US. A road trip to Greenland is all you need to do. 😁

As my dad would say, “how high is up”?

As an added bonus, I’m sure the older ones have found a new sense of vigor in doing their chores. 😁

I went to an eclipse tailgate hosted by the nice folks at the Model T Museum in Richmond IN. It happened to be on my way home from Charlotte. I’ve seen a partial eclipse before, but didn’t expect the huge change in light as that last 1% of the sun gets covered. I’m glad I made the extra time to see it.

I had two enjoyable days at the shows and just wanted to say thanks to those involved for all the hard work to put it all together..

V16 and 16V do not mean the same thing.

I’ll add another “go for it” to the tally. If both parties like what they get, it’s a good deal.

I owned a business that had a shop rate for the purpose of pricing out jobs. You are correct, and there are other costs to employ people like FICA, vacation time, workman's comp and so on. The rule of thumb at the time, 20 years ago, was you multiply a person's hourly wage by 1.3 to get close to your actual cost. Then you need to mark it up. I'd wager that number has grown. Another complication is, the more experienced they are, the older they are and the more their health insurance costs you.

Thanks guys, very helpful. What I’m hoping to do is when I go camping in the van, I can tow a small trailer behind me with a car in it. That way wherever I am, I can still have some car fun.
