This black coffee tastes like I'm trying to prove something

Some of my purchases past have arrived...and remind me that I need to stay focused.

I bought what were advertised as NOS bumper brackets-they arrived yesterday-and it's hard to believe they are NewOldStock.  They're a set but that's about it.  Not 100% happy with them but they were relatively inexpensive so I guess I can't bitch too much.


I also found the dual contact plastic bits for the front turn indicators-very very expensive to acquire but I now have three (in the event I break one installing it).  I hope I never, ever have to buy them again.

The seat belts I bought arrived-I am most likely going to put them back up for sale.  They're not quite what I wanted so I'm not going to hang on to them.

The ignition column arrived-it'll get cleaned and painted and I'll sell one that's stripped and painted.  I don't need three of these.  The part I wanted was intact but in worse condition than I expected.

I bought, for the second time, a hood pull cable and, for the second time, it came in the wrong color.

Might be time to step away from the "Send Money" button for a while.
