Great article. im asuming we are talking $1500.00 AU.
It should be titled "a love story"

I gotta admit, I was close to tears with this paragraph:

I'd be the first to admit that I'm not the most skillfullerest person I know when it comes to electricity and the various devices that are associated with it. (I ain't so real crash hot with grammar, either!) Over time I have, however, developed my own theories of electricity through close observation and repeated electrocution. Electricity is a form of smoke that lives in wires and bites people. If you get too close to the smoke, you get bitten. If you let the smoke out of any electrical or electronic component, it won?t work anymore unless you put all the smoke back in. This is almost impossible, so it?s easier to replace the component with one that still has all it?s smoke. In addition, I firmly believe that multimeters are totally inaccurate and superfluous, and all electrical troubleshooting is more successful (and ?stimulating?, in all senses of the word) when it?s done by trial and error. Trust me!

I knew the rusted-out mufflers would probably need to be rebuilt, but after the budget overruns to date I hoped that they could be revived with the generous application of muffler putty. Sadly, it was not to be. I used two tins of putty plugging up all the holes, but as soon as I fired up the old girl, she blew lots of new holes through the rust and sent big lumps of putty flying all over the garage. I surrendered to the inevitable and admitted that I needed specialist help (with the mufflers, I mean).
