    So, I did. It rained hard all morning after a beautiful drive in with clear skies. IMG_4583.JPG

    Whew it's fun to be retired and not have to drive to work. Car looks good sitting out there and waiting though.

    I drove mine yesterday. It's cool to look out the window and see a 68 yr old Ford parked in the sea of new Chevys at the dealership.

    Looks like a "where's Waldo" picture.

    Tell me that sign on your space says reserved for employee of the month.

    Well, I can without a doubt.... but I don't work with "car guy's"..... Last time I had a guy over from work, he rubbed his hand all over it,(my ride) and actually knocked on it.:mad: I proceeded to knock on his forehead, and asked= It's real, huh? I think he got the message real quick........ S0- If I want 50 of those fools around my car, then i'll do it. I envy you guys who can, and don't sweat it.......

    I wish I had a job that I could drive to but alas I'm retired. My two 36's just sat in the garage keeping themselves company. Kinda sad but thats the way it was today. I tore a menescus in my knee and theres not much of anything goin on round here. Mitch.

    I'm working out of town right now, so I just drove my rental car. Even if my 50 was up and going, I wouldn't drive it anywhere near where I'm working on the south side of Chicago right now through.

    My "eyeball" technique had me out quite a ways on that front end. Rear was spot on, tracks nicer now and not fighting itself. 100 bucks plus the gov's share. Not bad. They didn't have to bend the axle which had me worried as that chrome would not have survived a bending well.

    I've been retired for about 7 years so no more drive to work day for me. Before I retired, I did drive my coupe to work regularly. Drove my 66 Nova there a lot too.

    That looks stunning out in the sunlight! I aligned mine myself with a tape measure. Maybe that's why it pulls ever so slightly to the right...;-)
