Gonzo

To all my fellow shop owners and friends here at ASO, today is a day that I knew had to come along sooner or later.  I've closed the sale on my repair shop that I started with my own two hands nearly 34 years ago.  I hope the new owner becomes a member of ASO too.  I'll still be around and for those followers of Gonzo's Toolbox ... don't worry... I've got lots more stories to tell. 

Vision is next week.  I'll be there from Thursday until Sunday.  Who else is going?

Question: How many reflashes do you do in a year, what kind of cars, and is the investment worth the effort.. (new article info)

Finished the last of the electrical and mechanical on the 56 fire/rescue truck I've been working on... go to my website or to my facebook page you can see more pictures of it. After it's painted I'll post more. Next stop Paint.

I've got one more car to get picked up and I'm OUT OF HERE! Long weekend with family and friends... and some golf time.

internet down at the house... will post new story as soon as possible.

internet. down.... AGAIN!!!! chat tonight might be a problem...

Internet finally straightened out. The receiver box was the problem. Internet for about an hour, then nothing for about 3 hours. Well, back to work. Gotta pay for it now... LOL

Had an interesting day. I taught at a local technical (automotive section) college today. Showed them how to do a parasitic draw test with a volt meter, how to read and understand relays, and how to find a back feed on an electrical circuit. Really cool... hope to do it again.
