the Ranchero disaster & Brand X update

Let me give ya'll an update, ranchero still runs great but ain't fixed...Brand X is a driver now and I've spent a fair amount of time on the Junk Pyle, no it ain't started up yet, got the rear glass out, cleaned and sanded the window channel, no rust cept where the paint chipped in the past around the edge at the trim but surface rust had to be taken care of, so that done and painted. We are ready for glass, that took a week and a half but I ain't complin'n only charged me $20, DEAL!!
Hiccup (not the only one) was the lower right bracket came off the glass, gotta go see my restoration buddy and maybe mooch something that will hold with little worry, anyway window in, clips installed, trim installed and it looks MEH, it will surfice, here's a pic or three.....

The other hiccup was when I discovered that one of 4 screws to secure the louvers to the hinges was missing yeah fun, I could just run up to lowe'sdepo and grabbed a screw and been done but noooooo, not me, only three places, not counting the distance between inside the garage and the first stop out side for prep and then another 20' or so to the back of the car, where it could have made it's escape, if it fell off in the garage where I had the window settin and last notice all the screws were in place then It's a gone dog, I've swept the floorseveral times since then, looked anyway, checked the area where the glass guy prepped the glass with a magnet and found two car keys, neither are mine and a nut and bolt, checked the hatch area hoping it fell inside but nope, looked around the rear area of the car on the floor and didn't see it untill I got down on the floor to gaze under the Pyle and THERE IT IS!! Right where you would stand to work on the hatch/glass. Shuffle one foot wrong and that screw would have never been found, it's only about maybe 3/8" long so I believe I earned the "Lucky Dog Award".
Not really.......I just didn't want to go to lowesdepo for a 3c screw..
Lets see, I've spent how long play'n with these louvers and the Pyle still ain't running?
But boy do they look neat
Now if I can just get the irrigation pump repaired and back to work but that's been going on 3 months now, oh, and the electric stupidity that home owners insurance want done (to the tune of about 5K) just to insure the house and property that is already "code compliant", now I know why I don't have any friends in the insurance industry
Wait do I have any 'friends'?
Gotta go hunt down some parts for a 'friend'. Hey at least he called, when did one of ya'll call me last?
