More... on The Virgil Dietz Living Estate Sale!!


A Teeny... Tiny,
'snippet'
of
'The Tools'.

2012 Lincoln. All Wheel Drive.
147,000 Miles
Fully Loaded!!
; )


There's Much Christmas.
; )
Stay Tuned!!

My 'FIND'... for Today.
<3 <3 <3 
We 'Find'... something, that makes us 
'Light Up'...
Every Single Day.
That's... What Keeps Us Goin'!!
: )

1966
Shelby Cobra
Tachometer.
9,000 RPM
<3

Found it this morning, as I was going through one of Virgil's...
Old, Old...
metal cabinets.
The cabinet was filled with all Sorts of 'paper', miscellaneous parts,
odds and ends... 
and
 More.
: )
I... believe, that little old cabinet, was where Virgil 'Stashed' some of his
 Favorite 
Treasures.
; )
I've pulled some Very Interesting Things, 
from that Old... chippy painted cabinet.
; )

{We'd priced it early in the day. For some reason... I took another look at it, later.
Seems there's a big difference between a 6,000 RPM Tachometer, and a 
9,000.
It also 'matters'... where the Cobra is situated on the gauge.
yes...
we are learning a lot, with Virgil's Sale.}
: )

Felt so sorry for Pal, Bill... today,
He... had a melt down.
: (

Virgil's Sale... is quite different from a Usual Estate.
Normally, when we have a FULL Home, we can take overflow from the House, to the garage.
Not this time.

Put my foot down.
Virgil's Workshop is 100% 'Workshop'.
No Household.
so...
The House, is FULL, Beyond.
but,
so is Virgil's Workshop.

Helped Bill, for several days in Virgil's Workshop.
{Love... being there.}
Bill said to me, tonight...
"How do you keep going? I'm exhausted."
I Roared with Insane Laughter!!!
Hahahahahaha!!!
replied,
"I hit 'exhausted' about three days ago!!"
Hahahahahaha!!!
"Now... I'm just Runnin' on 'Insanity'!!"
Hahahaha!!
; )

The Huge... problem, we're both having...
there's So Many 'Specialized' Tools, Parts, and Equipment.
Even one of The Best... Mechanics I've ever known, didn't have a Clue, on some things.
It's like asking a Dr. to perform a root canal.
Might be the Best Dr. on the planet, but... he/she... wouldn't know the first thing about Dentistry.

I'll share more about 'that', later.
: )
<3

Bill's on his own, tomorrow, in Virgil's Workshop.
but,
 he's in a Good Place.
; )
Assured Bill, and Everyone,
We're Gonna Make It!!
; )

I'll... be setting my sights on The Home, tomorrow.
: )

Pal, Gayle... Virgil's Son... Jerry, and Daughter in Law, Christene...
Pal, Dale... and Grandson, Justin,
have made Huge Strides, in the Home...
<3
Have a Lot to Do...and a short time to get it done.

 Price... Like Crazy.

 we'll...
 get done what we can...
I know, Customer's will understand, and be patient.
<3

We'll be pricing throughout Virgil's Sale.

When I say... This, is a BIG Sale...
Trust me.

; )

Many more images tomorrow night, of The Home, and Virgil's Shop.
; )

Stay Tuned!!
