My dream car.
The car that inspired my love for Trans Ams.
Can you name the tv show this car is from???
There was also the Chevy Stepside from the
same show. I've owned both a blue stepside
and a Trans Am, lol.
You ALWAYS see bandits and K.I.T. cars
at the Trans Am car shows but NEVER
this car!!
It's taken me about 6 years to find
photos of this car!
I know it's only a dream because to find
a 1971 to 73 TA under $3,000 is like finding
a needle in a haystack!
The color is coppermine gold or rootbeer.
I have a big job ahead of me.
I have to figure out how to paint
one of these birds on the hood of the Trans Am!
Don't this look like fun with
all the little details???
It's either that or pay $269 for the
hood bird decal. A complete decal
kit costs $299!!
This is the type and color of bird
that used to be on our red Trans Am.
We had to remove it as it was causing
the hood to rust.
Actually the top, first bird is correct.
It has 5 feather tips compared to the
one below which only has 4.

I've started cleaning the dining & living room
& coat closet which is a magnet to pack
full of crap! I can finally put
my carpet cleaners and vacuum in there!
Tired of them sitting in the hallway
and stubbing my toes on them!
When I get in one of my moods, cleaning
does not mean tidying up. It means
a total overhaul of moving everything,
dusting, vacuuming, carpet cleaning
and throwing crap away!
I'm gonna try to do it in little
strides so I don't get burnt out
from it. Then later on this week
if I feel up to it, I'll start on bedrooms
and the kitchen.
6:55PM
Sorry I have been on a retro kick. I get
like this every now and then.
I spent my day cleaning and listening
to 80's music.
Then for the past couple of hours I have
been watching my CHiPs dvds. I have
the whole series. It was a favorite
show of mine when I was about the boys
age. The get hooked on this show also
every time I play it.

Me and Tony were sitting outside waiting
for the storm to get here.
As we were getting ready to come back in
the neighbor caddy corner comes over
and wants to know if I would babysit his
THREE kids tomorrow. Uh hello, doesn't
anyone have a little respect to ask someone
ahead of time, and I don't me right before
they head off to bed???
I knew this would eventually happen since
our neighbor got another job.
He's an over the road truck driver
of all things. I just hope this doesn't
become an all time thing. I'll try to manage
this one time. One of his kids is about
kindergarten age, the next should be almost
ready to go to school and the third one
is 2.5 years old. Now add that to my 9 & 10
year old!! AHHH 7am to 5:30PM is gonna be
a long day for me tomorrow with 5 kids,
a dog and a cat of our own, along with his 2 dogs
and a cat that I probably should go
over and look after a couple times
throughout the day to go pee or what not.
Well the storm is rolling through.
Time to head to bed. I love listening
to thunder and rain when drifting off to sleep.
