Sad day for Fixie Wheels

What a week! After completing work on a few cars I noticed my exhaust was hanging loose. Took the “Fixie Mobile” to the muffler shop to repair it. Seems that while the exhaust was being welded a spark ignited part of the interior and a flame busted my rear glass. The fire was promptly subdued but not before causing damage to interior parts. Luckily my air compressor and paints were spared any damage.
At this point I need to either get another vehicle or find a hatch for this one. Not an easy thing to do. Not only is this a rare car but it is also an older model Audi 100, a station wagon which is even rarer. (Not many Audi cars in Atlanta’s salvage yards.)
For now I am working on a solution so I can get back to repairing wheels as soon as possible.
