My dislike of Fords goes WAAAAYYYY back to the time when they had two DIFFERENT 302's that WOULD NOT interchange parts, 3 different BIG blocks that WOULD NOT interchange parts, and the fact that they discontinued the BEST motor they EVER designed, the lil ol 289/302 Windsor block! Other than that, they built their LAST pretty car with the 72 Torino Grand Sport Fastback GT.

Saw that on the FB page thingie! Lookin good Daddy-O! I got the conversion kit from modelhaus, front an rear bumpers and dash. oh an the tailights. Hardest thing about the conversion was patchin up the area over the tailights of the 69. Came out pretty good. Din't do the vent windows though. May just do that, now that I know how!!! ;D

Well at least yer stayin in shape,Bro. An that's all that counts really. ENJOYIN it is just a PLUS! I STILL like the girls bike. Is that a 24 inch or 26? I'm short(5'4'') so I can't use a tall bike, if ya know wat i mean, an Jamies bike LOOKS like it'd be a comfortable size. Plus I like the way it looks. Wat does a nice bike like that go for anyway?

It's a 26"er,ol Buddy,and besides the always adjustable seatpost,that there stem has some reach and angle adjustments on it too,it's in the "Comfort Bike Series",so it should be comfy Well,the "New Bike Hauler" search begun last week,but I only had a modest amount...last night,the budget almost tripled (even after daBoss Lady took'd a sizable cut...),I solded the Pony (Mustang),I ran it through the local auction "just to see" again,and couldn't pass up that bid,LOL! Since the gas prices are supposed to go up exponicially,I may be lookin fer another 4-banger minitruck,LOL! |

Fools are talkin 4 bucks a gal by the end of summer. Heck i think it'll only be a few weeks till that happens!!!! i got NUTHIN but V-8's an my Impala runs ONLY on premium. Now that I think about it, Theresa's little Ranger has a 6 but it drinks gas like a dam BIG BLOCK!!! Only gettin about 16 miles to the gallon! My Impala gets 17 on the street,21 on the E way.An the truck ain't got NEAR the balls my Impalas got! NOT good.
