Future Posts on Completed DIY Projects

I thought I'd make a list of projects that I've completed in the past so that you will know what to expect. Some of these may seem easy, but I have been asked or seen questions about all of them. Also, it's helpful for some people (including me) to see pictures of what someone else has done before jumping into a project.

So if you somehow find this blog and are interested in seeing any of those descriptions, let me know and I'll be sure to bump it to the top. Or, if you drive one of these cars, leave a comment and I'll focus on that car's repairs first.

Pictures of the other Vehicles

I made the banner for this blog because I think that picture is amusing - I can't believe how much stuff we crammed in and around the Volvo. Our gas mileage on the trip was definitely the worst I've ever had. Unfortunately, it's my least favorite car, so I thought I'd add some pictures of my Eclipse and the motorcycle. The picture of the Eclipse is from a long time ago when it was almost new, but I haven't really had any reason to do any photo shoots of it since then (sorry for the quality, cameras have come a long ways in the last 9-10 years). The motorcycle photo is more recent, but from when it was still in CT.
