Wow! Nice car

That brings back memories, I had a boyfriend with a classic "goat." Although it had a mystery vapor lock sometimes when the engine temp would get over a certain degree and it wouldn't start no matter how much you needed it to until the engine cooled down. (Like the time I turned the engine off on the boat ramp with a line of boats behind ours, trying to load onto trailors )

What fun Shirley, seeing that car out there on the Brickyard!

Nothing else can be said but


SWEET!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Nothing in the world like driving Old Iron Cars. One of the Orgional Muscle cars.






I dont mean to jump on this thread but.......... I need some input.

I have a guy wanting me to trade a 84 Regal for my reef tank what ya thin I should do? I could get a apint job on it real quick and turn a buck on it and set up the new one even better than this one. He has all the hardware to make it look like a Grand National so I am considering it big time

What would you do?

Jeff S. - I know what my brother would do.
Go with your heart and gut feeling...think how alive you feel when working on your passion -- reefs and old cars, for instance...this would be an oppty to create a new reefer and for you to work on both your passions! Or not. I have no clue the value of the car.

Alice and Jeff, -- yep, they don't make 'em like that anymore...and it's got a history of memories and a wall of trophies...and it won a lot of country drag races back in my brother's younger days!
