    You best watch out for Chevy Cavaliers, Dodge Neons and free falling anvils as well.

    Glad to hear that you are ok.

    Hard to tell from a pictue, but the wagon looks fixable with a shitload of work.

    FYI, there is a '62 Comet wagon in Cave Creek listed on Craigslist fot $1500.00. It appears to be a running, driving machine.

    Picked up the car today, I highly recommend the guys at automatic transmission experts. I took off it held the gear and shifted good, down shifted great very happy with that part. the motor is running a little warm 225 to 230 don't like that, but again if I have a trans problem that's were I am headed. Hope you all are having a great week. Somebody please bring a camera so I can at liest prove it made it to Central LoL.

    I sure hope it makes it the next 6 to 8 months with no problems, or it is going to make an expensive flower planter in the back yard LoL

    I guess since the shopping's all done and the offer has been accepted I can let you guys in on a secret.... Me and Jess' just bought a house near 24th st and Indian School. Should be able to make it down more often once we get moved back to civilization.

    Edit... I just noticed that this is my 1000th post and is probably the coolest one ever.

    I saw that the other day, I meant to post on that thread. Dave seems to think it's Lowell's bucket too. I'm going to try to order a copy of that shot without the big watermark. I need to scan some of the pics from the Scrambler book at the shop. The one of the blown-out block is pretty amazing.


    Thanks dude, we're pretty excited. If all goes well we'll be ready to move by the 15th next month. Keep your backs in good shape boys, I may need some help.

    You just gotta love the Cruise on Central, that's what its all about cruising, girls, and hot rods. Really a good night having fun, I sure hope that somehow we can get more people to get together up on Central every Saturday night, and have fun. Hopefully for those who don't know we meet at McDonalds every Saturday night.
    Keith I think I am going back to 7:00 PM ?
