    I saw these gauges and wanted'em sooooo badly. Momma Gozt said "Get'em, they'll be my anniversary gift to you." So.... here they are today! They are supposedly NOS from a Huppmobile and are Stewart Warner. I can't wait to get these into the RPU!

    I think I'll keep her!

    Holy cow!!!!!!!! That's NICE.

    You better keep her now, if she goes, she might take the gauges.

    I'm slowly collecting some $$$ to buy and build her a '69 Mach I nosed Mustang. It's her dream car, and someday - she'll have it.

    Until then, I've got 2 toys. That's part of the reason my Dubble A is going to be an auto - so she can drive it!

    Our 3rd Anniversary is the 18th, so we'll be partially celebrating it at MoKan with all of you!

    No... but her brother does have a limp wrist. Seriously, he needs a man. LOL


    I've got a great wife. She encouraged me to buy my Dubble A, and has always encouraged me to put this old RPU back into the good graces of the road. She openly states that she wouldn't let me sell it, so why not spend the good $$$ on it to make it right?

    Gotta love a woman like that. I think I really screwed up and didn't marry her when we graduated high school - shoulda never waited that 13 years to fine on another again. We've been together about 6 years now, and are coming up on our 3rd anniversary the 18th.

    She is definitely the best.

    No, she can't paint or weld, but she does know how to sand'em down and prep'em for paint. She dated a guy for several of those years she shoulda been with me who painted cars for a living.

    I'm hoping for mannnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnny more!
