"Handsome"---definition two---'Moderately large'.

I am handsome, except likely around the beltline. I've probably passed handsome in that area, at least.  :-)

I am 6 feet, 220ish. Not so bad for my late 40s. When I was 17 I weighed 165 amd was a skinny little punk. Literally, mohawk, drove a beat up 69 Mustang coupe with a Batman sticker on it, etc.

I posted that video to my FB with the message, "Some of my oldr friends will be amazed I look EXACTLY the same as when I was 19." becuse I look totally different.

I didn't go over razorblading and using acetone on the bottom of the block surface, before I put the pan back on, mostly because my hands were too dirty to pick up my ipad. That's a given though,,right?

This whole process, restoring parts I didn't use, ordering new parts, etc took me about 3 weeks. Once I got the new pan (and I went ahead and got a nice magnetic oil plug) I had it in the car 5 hours later and was finishing the sway bar. I have arthritis in my shoulders and needed frequent breaks, so obviously it could be done in less time. I pushed myself to finish it actually, and now my shoulder is killing me from all the wrenching and jacking. (No jokes, please).

I got like $27 invested, and my time in the pan with a new gasket and bad bung hole. Think it's fair to try and get $25 for it on craigslist?
