One of the most shocked looks on my Mom's face was when she came home and
found me rebuilding a Roadster 4 speed on the family room floor. "Phillip
B. Hall get that out of my house - NOW". "buuut Mom it's 10 below outside".
"I don't care - out NOW". Geez, Mom's are tough on kids, and I even put
news papers down. Ok, I did use her good baking pan to hold parts. Last
time I did that. At least I learned my lesson at 15 years old.

The previous owner of our home used to rebuild engines and trannys in
the living room. Also did Harley rebuilds in one of the bedrooms. Parked
his leaky bikes in the front room by night. Even after being empty 6
months, there was a lingering order of grease and oil. Do you know what
happens to 9 inch 3/4 sawn oak parquet after it has been leaked on?
Hello fire pit. So, please guys, have the decency and do your Datsuns
outside.
