I don't wanna grow up

So,
pixel sees my post about wanting to play bumper cars in my Volvo today after a slight overindulgence in iced mocha latte.
He says, "I always wanted to turn one of those boxy Volvo wagons into a Radio Flyer little red wagon."
He lives right around the corner from me.
I'm gonna have an art car! Whee!
He also told me how to fix my power steering without spending the money to get the AC fixed as well -- I just have to take a tape measure and figure out what size belt I need. I can do that tomorrow. And he's going to keep an eye out for rear winshield wiper arms, and help me rig something for the missing handle that lowers the seat back in the cargo area.
And we are definitely going to test the sprayer attachment to my Kirby vacuum to see how well it functions as a paint sprayer. Yes, the instructions say "don't." I suspect that's because you get a permanently painted sprayer bottle when you're done. Ask me how much that matters to me. I could even get a spare sprayer bottle if I cared. Just the idea of using my vacuum cleaner to paint my car is amusing the heck out of me.
He promises we can make the wagon handle removable -- just install a permanent bracket where it can be bolted and unbolted.
Whee!
