so what did one bottle of padron tequila buy me this weekend??? A 289,c4 with a old gennie shifter,2 flat tires,4 ****py spoke wheels a new exhaust system,sunroof,old VDO guages(white face at one time) and some very straight sheetmetal. seems a guy had it at the bodyshop many years ago and they got it ready for paint, all primered and guess who never came back to pay!!!?? So I call my buddy Moochie up asking if he knows where I can get an old panel truck for a shop truck for the alleycat garage....he says sure..how about a 54 ford??? In my drunken stupor I'm thinking 57 or57 bodystyle...so I don't get too excited....then later on I figure out it's the bodystyle I have been lusting for for years (I know...yes I really was that drunk) so I ask him whats it gonna cost?? Moochie calls the bodyshop and his answer is "bring me a bottle of tequila...and none of that cheap quervo ****" So one $50 bottle of tequila later this is what I drug home. Oh yeah...my old nickname was Lucky
please tell me you'll have those portholes filled by the time you drive it back out here to tejas for the round up!!
Damn! I would have given 2 bottles for it, what else they got for sale? I have a couple of bottles of rot gut laying around.
dunno what I'll think tomorra but right now I'd say you got ripped off...... bytheway, still got that windshield-sandblast-post you could email me?
I know ...I feel really bad ...especially with the kool portholes and the sunroof hole (I might keep that one) I don't have the sandblast post anymore...when you're ready I can email you the specifics
Very cool! I'll get with you, in the next day or two, about that other stuff...I haven't forgotten...
Brewsir The exact twin (the same color & portholes) is in the desert East of Lake Elsinor next to a boatload of P/U's...! (Off Ortega Hwy in So Cal) When I saw the photo's..., I thought it was the same truck! If it is the same truck..., someone did alot of work to get it out of that location and bring it up to the Bay Area!!! Great score!!!
