Sled: I go to Mexicali to visit my girlfriend, she lives there. Her friend is moving to Mexico City soon, and we plan on visiting her. If I ever make it down there I'll hit you up for info on the area.
analphabetism = illiteracy I think he may have meant something else although this is true as well as the wealth being un-evenly distributed. There are "Haves" and Have-nots" but far more "Have-nots" and the "Haves" have quite alot. I should write presidential speeches
Dang T442! I looked it up in my Webster's 9th Collegiate. Never encountered it before. I thought I'd hear every word that starts with "anal-" The prefix "an" means back, upward or again. Here it seems to mean "without". Similar to "anaerobic": without oxygen" Yes, by all means you should be writing speeches or doing poetry slams.
I almost forgot.... You sure this is unusual considering the loc you list? All in good fun. Don't encourage me
WOW this is making me sick, Just found this, And I'm to scared to go there, so maybe you can just send it over the border and I'll pick it up, so Have you seen any 70 to 73 pontiac trans am's, or GTO's.
Heres a few of the pics I snapped while I was there last weekend. Unfortunately I wasn't able to take pics of all te cool stuff due to being in moving vehicle alot of the time. I know these aren't exactly the finds that some of the Mexico City cars are, but I was only there for a couple days. And a parts car for the 2 door. Missed the show from the day before, but the security officer told me this one broke down so it was still there.

Sled, Host your photos on PhotoBucket. That way you don't spend time resizing, you just link it to the Hamb.
Folks, I have re-sized some pics for sled, and have attached them below. He has sent me a bunch more, which I am working on also. I'll post the pics, and sled has sent me some text to describe the pics. Anyway, heres the first of them: "met recently a car guy wich i met once a year ago from a closeby town,he owns a restaurant... he invite me for lunch and after the coffe also showed me some of his cars... i was really surprized to find out that he owns this kustom lincoln 47 continental cab... this thing is sectioned all the way 4 inches...seems to have been pancaked hood too. engine is a mid 50's Lincoln,runs strong.. as you see the bench seat has been lowered a lot. looks like the winshield is stock height. just to be sure we measured with another stock 47 linc and yep, 4 inches cut.... you can see some weldings on the doors,still there. but i wonder who did the job???mexicans don't know much about kustoms.. and sectioning is another story....my guess car can be imported from US.. he has no idea,he found the car in town abandonded,and bought it....still unrestored. someone has ever seen this car in US?? actually is really weird to use such a car to be kustomized... any help greatly appreciated...."
here a private collection from a friend o mine,almost all convertibles and all frame off restored... all cars are in fully running order,turn key. my mate is 70 now and he's willing to reduce his collection...cause he's still willing to restore some more cars anyway. have TONS of pix and list with prices... in case please PM me,will provide all details... no problem at all to deliver eventually cars in US or worldwide. anyone seriously interested to come and touch em,highly welcome to mexico
