    Do you have the chipped out piece? If not you'll need some material.

    Any good junkyards nearby? Used might not be more $$$ than time and glue

    I've fixed them with epoxy good as new. Last one I was backing out of driveway and got the mailbox..........had to fix that too..........

    I just thought of something...if you can find a small piece of broken tail light, you can glue it over the hole.
    Just an idea-I've been pulled over for "white light to the rear". It was just a pretext for a fishing expedition.

    Been at a few "fishing sessions". One time they wanted into the trunk. Car was an old beater and I'd just made a run to my friends junkyard for parts, trunk was full of greasy oily stuff, I made a stink so they would have lots of fun...... got a good laugh as the gestapo was covered in grease and I made them put all the parts back.

    I don't hate cops, most all are decent, it's the bad ones that stink.

    Hey been looking for you to report the last of the apples went into the apple wine today. Had about five pounds or so and they was ripe. Ran em through the food processor and loaded two batches in knee high hose along with a box of raisins and 10 pounds of sugar. Topped the bucket off with six or seven gallons of water and half a pack of champagne yeast. Expecting great things. That last batch is keeping me not needing much from the store. lol. Works good with the ho made ginger ale over ice.

    I haven't the cider working yet. I'll post on the other thread when I do.

    As I was taught at an early age when a missing front License Plate resulted in recovering a truck load of stolen TV sets, "From tiny acorns do mighty Oaks grow." lol
    Kindly absorb this info and report back for a pop Quiz on Tuesday. Thanks.

    Wished folks would lose the quote function around here. It takes forever to track it down as to who is nagging about what. There has got to be some better software available to handle that problem. Who is the boss of this place? Thanks.
