Ha ha ha

 

Funny? Hell, I almost got arrested as an accomplice!! Good thing Little Truckdoctor was asleep!

 

Are they going to site you for using Rotella also? Ha ha
Dan

 

Dan, don’t you worry, we both got tickets for that!!

 

I thought the bench racers were clear when they said you CAN’T do that!

 

I was gonna make a run for it, but i was just too tired. And fat. And old. And enloe had been feeding me Jim Beam pineapple.

 

Man those sound good.

 

They’re not going to put you two Hoodlums in same cell are they?
Dan

 

I’m in the campground having some right now

 

Hopefully, between the two us we have a file and hacksaw.

 

That’s what I’m talking about lol
Dan

 

Dude I didn’t think you’d take me seriously about the bail money

 

Kinky

 

Dang! we gotta get this thing to lift its wheels! Why are all the Guys actually doing Shit never in my neighborhood?

 

Looks awesome brother, congrats on getting it together

 

Right? The car shows seem like way more fun too in other places. The only people who seem to be having fun and not taking themselves too seriously down here are the low rider guys

Ya know, I think this place (the HAMB) is becoming a Bad Influence on me. I've had this little sweetheart hanging around in the Barn for about 20 years. (yes, you read that right)

However, I've had a finished vision of it of my own all that time. I have talked about selling it a bit but no movement as of yet. I have a ton of takeoff Shit laying loose in my shop like a front Axle package with no projected home. A 351-C CRAZZY Camshaft installed with a 4 speed bolted to it. A set of 488's on a spool and several pairs of wheels and tires to pick from. Heck, I have less work to do than Lloyd did when he started. But First, I need to send this little project off to Paint Shop lock-up

Then I have this little 57 all painted and Upholstery ready to install. Ther's not a lot of finish work to get done. Of course, it's been sitting and waiting like this for about 8 years.
Then there's this little Jewel that was making good progress until I found a Body Guy that I actually think will get my F-100 done and back to me. That put a full stop on my 40.
Then there's this little 5 day job that would make it at least drivable again so I can rehome it and stop thinking about doing a full rebuild and gain 1 parking space in the Shop.
But before I do any of those little projects, I've been telling myself next year for 4 years I'll be at Tootle next August relieving some Rubber from those back tires. That said, I don't know when I can get it close enough to the Toolbox and actually make it happen.
So Hell Yes, why not start yet another little project. I mean, it doesn't need any fresh paint or upholstery and today fully accepted as is. How hard can this be? I better get out in the Shop! Thanks LLOYD!!

 

@Pist-n-Broke this is screaming for a big FE.

 

The car project equivalent of, “which young and willing supermodel do I want to casually date this week?”

 

One Nasty FE in the family is enough and that's in the Black Fairlane. Don't mean much though if you can't drive them. A heavy hitting Cleaveland motor is just about as much fun and a little easier to support and it was alive when taken out of service. Wish I could remember how long ago that was.

 

First, we’re talking hot rods. There is no such thing as enough! Second, you’re talking about FEs. While I realize that trying to make one nasty might seem like a daunting task, before you think the one you’re working on is enough, refer back to rule one.

 

For me, a little too much is just about right. I'm no stranger to Horse Power or big numbers. Generally speaking, I look at what I'm building and how I intend to use it. I love it when the uninformed think I'm just an Old Man in a old car. The look on their face is priceless when they can't get around ya. Never underestimate a Silver Back. We don't get Old by being lame.

 

You western car guys are killing me , nothing has rust ! The 57 two door wagon is bad as it gets . I agree huge FE and no repaint , drive it like you robbed the gas station in it

 

Funny I took you as a brunette

 

This 57 2-door wagon is incredible. That's unobtainium here, especially sans rust.
