It was a pleasant evening as I made my way home from work. But I needed to make a stop for the wife to pick up some work related materials for her and so, since I would be in the area and I had a 'stubby' for our friend 'jetfuel', I thought I would drop by his house.

First, the directions "Left, right and then left" only work when you're coming from ONE direction!

Second, once I found his house, I was immediately greeted by Mr Fuel's 'best side' as he was showing me which driveway was his.

Out came "Mrs Fuel" and I got to meet her for the very first time and she is a very special lady. You know, to have to deal with 'jet' day in and day out, well I'll just say that SHE should have her own "I love ME" wall to celebrate HERSELF!

Soon after he invited me into his garage, installed installed his 'stubby' with a big GRIN and then proceeded to show me his Mustang, "Pat". OMG!!!!! This guy is an artist! The work he put into this Mustang is simply unbelievable. So many parts were HAND MADE and he did EVERYTHING HIMSELF. Hence the personalized license plate "1MANJOB".

If you're ever in Indy, you have to stop in and 'Meet the Fuels'. It's one stop you won't regret. Right John???

This is true; the Mustang is absolutely unique (although I've never seen it running....)

Just don't go to dinner with him unless you've been fasting for a week or so.

Looking forward to seeing you guys on the 19th!
