So...how did you get your tree home?

i picked up a tree while i was in town today, problem was i was driving a geo metro and we had no bungie cords, so we threw it in the back hatch and duct taped it shut.

 

Damn Mercmad, get a fake tree. LOL

 

how did i get mine home?

i gave my parents a ring to pick it up , because i couldnt drive it home while i was at work

.....im that kid that puts the trees on your car.... B)

 

NO kid is putting anything on my car!!! I do all my own damage...LOL!

 

Today I go my tree home, but it cost me an head gasket plus both my kids fell asleep in the backseat so it will probably be an wake night.

But the tree was the best good locking Christmas tree ever!

 

1973

 

I guess that I should have save all of the evergreen from this past falls run to the tree drop off........



Bad bob, that picture is cool............and the funny thing is your kid is going to be doing that in about 20 years in an old car.

That's right! Next year he'll be drivin so he can tie the tree on his Shoebox...

 

The 1973 pic is great. Thanks for sharing.

 

who says we do damage??
i know for sure i dont....i make sure it goes on without a hitch.

....now the other guys i work with

and i know how you feel though. i wouldnt let anyone touch my tbird with a tree

 

The little one was 2. We all set in the front. No seatbelts. Heater was on and we were excited to go pick out the tree. Car had a 350 with a 65 Rochester FI. Seems like a million years ago.

 

That's so cool!!!

 

This might be a little dark.

 

Cool Henry J! Your house looks like a X-mas Village house. Right out of Heidi,HA HA!

 

finally talked my wife into a REAL x-mas tree this year, went out to warm up the ole rig and find another flat. so the old ford truck didn't make the trip, had to call in the cavalry and brought it home with pop's new ford truck.
TWO FLATS IN ONE WEEK!! DAMN ROOFERS

 

mines on lone from the track

 

funny...

 

it's nice to see they come with instructions as to what the colors are. I would never have guessed otherwise.

 

Bob, that would make a great Xmas card. You should send one to the gal that helped you in Malibu.

 

No tree here, maybe next year.

 

I got home a little early one day last week so Flower and I motored out to the "cut yer own" tree farm to get a nice one. We figured it would be alot more fun in her flatty milk truck than her daily big ol Avalanche......and my sedan isn't a good candidate for carrying a good sized tree. This picture is off the camera phone...of course the high-zoot 10mp digital SLR was left at home, not much better than Bad Bob's card-less camera. Anyhow, we stopped for lunch in Moorpark and snapped a photo. Boy, ya sure get some weird looks doing stuff like this in the hot rod but it's alot of fun!! Merry Christmas all!!!!

(Moorpark= "Gateway to wine country" according to the Kitchen Nightmare producers.......where'd they get that idea??)

 

Here's one I used for a Christmas card a few years back as I was putting my '32 back together.
