[QUOTE="ORVietVet, post: 22691, member: 9438"] Depending on what my PCP says at my VA on May 1 annual physical, my days of wrenching on a regular basis, may be over. Chance of double hernia operation and hip surgery in my future. Both are in the realm of, "If I stop crawling all over vehicles then operations can be cancelled but to continue, I may need both operations and even then that does not guarantee I can then still do the work. After May 1, other specialists may get involved. If my girl gets involved, she has a way of "getting her way". If all this happens I will have to start "scheduling my own vehicles in to shops for needed work and have to depend on the talent of someone else. I cringe at the thought. I have a shop owner friend but he can be buried for weeks at a time and it has been me that volunteered and helped get him caught up. At that time, so that they don't just gather dust, I may be forced to sell my boxes and tools. If the time comes, I want to find a young guy that wants it all and wants in to the shop business. That way, they can make a living without having to be on the tool trucks all the time. If anyone knows of a guy/gal that may be perfect for something like that, please send me a MESSAGE. Not saying it will definitely happen but there is at least a 50/50 chance. Selling it all at once will save someone some money than if I piece it all out. This realization really really sucks. This is not an "I want to", it is a "might have to" situation. [/QUOTE]
