Thread: Embarrassment

G'day sleepy the one in my avatar pic is my last one it was a 69 2a ,that was my baby i loved that car it done everything we asked it to do & only every broke twice once was a short rear half shaft & the accelarater cable in the mainstreet of cardiff,droveit on the choke to get it round the corner & off the road..
we only sold it because karen couldnt drive it no power steering & non syncro box...





this one is our curent one it has the holden blue 202 & full power steering .steering box is off a toyota 60 series ...
is going real good now was over heating we thought but it was just the sender not beeing compatable with the dash gauge now it just run an electic temp gauge & is fine ...
I dont get to drive this one much cant seem to get karens bum out of the drivers seat she loves it & tells everyone its her car..
It looks a little differant now it has the sill protectors (sliders) fitted...




I'm looking forward to getting this one out & dirty.
if karen ever leaves it home long enuff..LOL

Does anyone fill in there profile we where wondering the names & age of the people who have been chating in this thread karen doesnt think the younger members would understand but i think its more likely to be across the board..

Paul the build pics are here if you interested but there is alot 400+

Jason and Karen,

I commend both of you for your courage and openess in discussing what you both have throughout this thread. I think there is no need for embarrassment, I wish I could be just half as strong and resilient as both of you sound as though you are.

In regards to the background info you posted a couple of days ago Karen, I admire the strength it must have taken for you to keep sticking around for Jason, you sound like 2 amazing people who definitely seem great for each other. I can understand a little what it would feel like to have been through all that you both endured, as my cousin (same age as me) went through a very violent upbringing, fueled with alcohol, drugs and sex, and in many ways not too disimilar to what you described, although I recognise every case is individual, and Jason's certainly sounds a bit worse.

At the end of the day, you are both amazing people, who have done a fine job of making a great life together, and I can only wish both of you the best of luck in continuining to make progress together, and I would like to thank you both, you've certainly inspired me as to what the stregth and power of humanity can be.

PS I'm a young-un Jason, 22. And a Ranga.

lol - fair enough...

Well i have to be honest guys i have nearly been in tears & Karen has been in tears reading everyones good ,posotive,encouragement..We have never had any sort of surport except from the doc..use have all boosted my conferdance so much & have helped karen it is incredable not one of our family on both side have ever done this at all.. i read karens post where she had told use a little about what has happened to me , i felt so small,, that is just a very small amount,because i find it hard to tell anyone even karen..
A couple of use have sms't me & i have added use to my phone with karen & the kids & my cousin that i see (thats how i met karen @ my cousins 16th bday party)..Witch is good as i told karen i now have friends i hope this is ok. (never had that before) once in high school but my parents soon scared him off....so this friendship thing is new & very exciteing for me..
I also class everyone on here as friends & i'm slowly remembering names & nicknames & seem to be on here more & more & greatly enjoying it..
i am using this thread as a sort of diary as to when i have been out & what i have done so if i start to bore use just say so...
WE CANT SAY THANKYOU ENUFF FOR YOUR HELP & SURPORT TO EVERYONE..
Thanx Jason & Karen
