Car in a Blanket
Howdy everybody! I want to thank everybody whose shared their interest and support in my quest to restore my car Cassandra back to running condition! lol yes I named her, and yes I find it terribly funny that it looks like she's wearing a big blanket! So anyone who read my last journal knows just how happy I am after four years of obsession and hard work paid off!! http://www.furaffinity.net/journal/8024254/ I will be recording her repairs as a youtube series which I will link to when I have more filmed! I've had her for about a week now and I've managed to start cleaning her up a bit while I save up to tackle the mechanical work and the rust. By February I want to make a big push in the repairs and by the end of the year I want to have her making noise on some level, be it a horn, the radio, or the engine trying to start. Since you all have been so supportive and interested in her I figured I'd take and start trying to take more pictures for the before and after!

Also SHE IS THE MOST COOL CAR!hope she will get fixed soon

Oh wow! lol well hey if you don't mind me picking your brain about car stuff I'd be honored to get access to some of that mechanic knowledge! My main problem right now is getting those back doors open despite the lock being rusted in place and not unlocking.
And thank you so much for the support! I'm going to give it my all to make sure she gets fixed!

Well,we had one thing like that,we took parts close to the door to see more clear the lock and the handle,we remove the handle,put a new one and then check the if it has more stuff to add,like some plastic on the part that are broken or lost,i have my granpa here,he tells me what to write,so dont worry!
So that's Cassandra. :) I'm really glad that you were finally able to get her after waiting so long, but I'm happier to hear how much you care about her, and how you plan to repair her. :) It's probably been a long time since she's had a caring owner or a good home, and I'm sure she misses being driven. Do you plan to give her a complete overhaul, or do you plan to keep what still works and replace any parts that are aged or damaged beyond repair?
I plan to keep what still works and replace only what I cannot repair myself. I want to keep as much of her original as possible. And thank you very very much for your support! Your words flatter me and I'm going to give my absolute best to make sure she not only has a caring owner, but also gets back onto the road under her own power!
lol thank you for your confidence man! Once this bad weather lets up I'm going to go up there and start tackling some more of the of the interior work and move on to obliterating that rust with extreme prejudice! lol and dude that's what I've been telling all my friends!! She can seat six, has a huge trunk, AND has an antenna on a spring on her trunk meaning she's got a waggly tail X'D She'll be the PERFECT car for fur cons!
SQUEE! She looks as adorable as I thought she would! Lol look at that cute lil face poking out from under the blanket. ^^
Geez I hope you tied that down or weighed it down somehow or you might come back and find it lumped up next to her! It looks like you've done a good job digging her out of all those weeds, it almost looks like she's just parked in the driveway ready to go somewhere. Though... I do have to say looking at it.. I actually see an uncanny and maybe unsettling resemblance to Pinky. : 0 https://www.furaffinity.net/view/12641215/ .. At least Cass has hope..

lol Thank you! I think so too man!
And yeah, there were some awful winds for the past few days, today's still a little gusty actually. But over the weekend dad went up and shored up our bungies and so forth so everything's help up A-okay >.> Despite that being a Harbor Freight tarp that's ALREADY starting to tear after less than a week of use. o-0 yeah I see what you mean there, but unlike Pinky I'm a part of the equation this time! And after, not if: AFTER, I repair Cassandra lol I'll have to figure out how to dig through reality into your comic book and rescue Pinky too!

Oh boy man, do I have a treat for you! ~<3
I was feeling like being in a Callie mood the other day on my walk. I've been giving serious thoughts into doing an animatic-style half-assed animation of that "Like We Never Loved at All" song that I sent you the script for with Callie the Woodie.
So I went back and was listening to some of her voice actresses stuff (Beth Anderson) and found another song from the Scarface soundtrack that I hadn't realized was sung by her as well.
Listening to it I was struck with how much it sounded like Cassandra. I remember you keep talking about how picky she is, only wanting Buddys to drive her and shunning all others. Well I'd say you definitely have "the right combination" then. Plus the fact that you're taking her up after her "waiting so long" and shown her that she can love again and be loved.
Anyway so I thought what would be more amazing for you then to have a song that sounds like it's straight from Cassandra's grille, sung in the voice of Callie from Worthless. : D

lol a Callie mood? Dare I get my hopes up to see a Callie comic? Hey whatever you do I'll be happy to see it! That animation is long overdue ^w^
Oh wow I dig that song! Very 80s! I've had return to sender stuck in my head all day today so this is a nice change of pace lol. lol and you're quite as sentimental as I am! Thanks for that! I actually just got back from cleaning up there! I'm looking to see if I can't have her down in my yard by the end of the week. I've been talking to my neighbor with the scrapyard behind us since he has a tow truck.

That could help..
Also I'm assuming if I did finish it.... you'd supply me with one or two of your text walls? ^^; That's my biggest fear is that I make it and all I get is "nice!"
But listen to me.. I remember your struggle with that picture you put up while I was there. I'm a dick.

lol dude you know me better than that! If I'm going to comment on it, then you're going to get a wall that Trump would be proud of!! And make no mistake, I WILL comment on such an animation!
lol dude it's fine! If it's deserving of the comments then it'll get them. And the creator commented on the picture the other day when we were talking on skype.
I'll see if I can't assemble a list tonight for you of some good workout songs.
