Three Lions Garage

This past weekend, Dad, Charlie and I managed to put in a good number of hours at TLG (I know, its Friday already, but school and cross-country get in the way of writing these things). I wasn’t too productive; the only things left to remove from the car before I start suspension work will require […]

Our son Oliver has brought to our attention that for his last few teeth, the tooth fairy seems to have totally dropped the ball, often taking DAYS to make payments for teeth left under his pillow.  Several mornings he woke up looking to collect his bounty, only to find that the assigned tooth fairy was […]

True Confession time: It’s not all vintage vehicle fun at the Three Lions Garage.  Our newer vehicles need care too.  While I’ll admit that I’ll rarely decide to sacrifice any of the few precious hours I can manage to dedicate to the garage each week on projects as routine as oil changes or tune ups […]

ACK! I only just got back from a writing program, and now I’m leaving for Hawaii? WHERE DOES THE GARAGE FIT INTO ALL OF THIS?! The sad fact is, it doesn’t. You’re not alone–I hate it too. At the rate I’m moving, my car will be drivable by the time I pay off my first […]

Didn’t get too much time at TLG this weekend; I was busy driving (everybody off the roads!). Nevertheless, Dad and I were able to work a for a few hours last night. Since the next major step in our restoration is removing the interior, I started with the windshield for better access to the dash […]

This past weekend Dad, Charlie, and I were able to put in some time at TLG. Dad moved the trailer to his very helpful friend Rob’s house make room in the garage for us to work on our cars. I had been been storing a significant amount of parts on it before it was sold, […]
