Glad to see my ol' towtruck bed got put to use on that lucky's truck. I'll have to swing by and have a look at it!
My 78 mercury cougar sedan mad max car had a latex house paint bright pink roof for a few years. That was apparently the cause of some jackasses...
"You slamm'a my door I slamm'a yo face"
http://vimeo.com/28638402 This resonated with me for various reasons, the music is odd and distant but fitting considering the subject matter....
Love the pics! Great cars! Is there a version of the video without the music? I like the tunes but would also like to hear the rigs. Nice...
Man, great info. I have one of these in a 52 dodge coupe I have in my storage lot. I'll bet it would run with some tinkering, oil looks good. I've...

Well...it has a car part in there...I welded it up as a tool actually, to flail at the damnable blackberry vines. Turns out it just snags them and...
Burnouts in the shop. A minute of fun followed by 20 minutes of standing in the rain assuring people driving by they didn't need to call the fire...
I managed to weld my teeth yesterday. Was cutting with the ol' hot wrench and somehow got a slag spark in my mouth, which promptly welded to one...
I've run ads that say I'm going to scrap it, and I've scrapped them before. I have had the last few cars up for under scrap price, just trying to...
Check out the Beavercreek Auto Salvage yard. They have several of this body style truck from what I remember seeing. Easy to find the place, has a...
This is pretty common at swapmeets on vendor set up day. I bought six old truck headlight buckets from military trucks for $20, sold two pairs of...
This:[IMG] Became This: [IMG] I've seen it two years running. I liked the pickup version of it better but the bus is still quite amazing in...
Aw man, that black desoto is the right car to be the Sam & Max Freelance Police car. Want! It for sale by chance? I tend to ask about stuff like...

So here is the story of the 'sitting and rotting' 1956 hearse that showed up on here, parked in Washington state. Not sure where the picture...

Why not move it to the Beavercreek Auto Salvage yard? How many cars show up normally? They have a flat okay sized gravel parking lot you pull...
