(Sure thing, that works, and my responses are going to be on and off- I apologize in advance but I have a lab final for my anatomy class coming up next week, so lots of studying x.x)
Eric paged through a parts magazine, tapping a black pen on the counter of the gas station. They usually only got two to three customers in the off hours between the 'rush hour' where folks were going to work or coming back from it, leaving him to do just about whatever he pleased. Once glossy, the pages of the magazine were worn and torn, with different parts circled, crossed out, scribbled over, and notes written alongside different parts he was interested in purchasing. Over the past year he had managed to save up enough money to purchase most of the necessary parts to put the chevelle his father had given him back together, although the thing wasn't drivable quite yet and was in desperate need of a good paint job. Eric had been given the chevelle as a graduation gift after finishing up with high school, just before his father had died. He glanced up as he saw movement in the lot by the pumps, but it was just a plastic bag blowing along down the road. Eric flipped back and forth between two pages of the magazine, trying to figure out which part to get first- both were necessary, and with the two of them the chevelle would be road legal, although not exactly pretty.
