Got out the stuff today to work on the rear batt rack. Did a few welds... and then ran out of welding wire

. And the parts store was closed. D'oh!

I spent more time driving the car up & down the street this week than I did working on it. I wonder if the parts store sells discipline too?

I'm going to be away for 10 days at the start of Aug. I'd like to get something accomplished on the old FS before I go.
