Went for a ride with RocketJ2 yesterday in search of a few rumored "old car finds" that he'd heard about along some stretches of Gay Michigan Roadways. First up was a chopped model A body that had vanished before we got there. Kept driving. (Like a Too Much Joy Song....) "I could go east, or I could go west I can't decide which way I like best. The girl at Stuckeys, her face was a mess, I could think about you, but I'd just get depressed..." So, we drive off in search of what was said to be a "32-ish four door car" near Howell. No dice...just Travolta-Vettes for sale along Grand River. We DID see a guy standing outside of Wal-Mart with a sign that said "WILL WORK FOR FOOD TO FEED FAMILY ON THANKSGIVING", though. He shoulda grabbed a bell and a bucket...done the Chong Charity Gig and made himself some dough! "Oh, I seen that dude! Yeah, we made ALOT of money doing that one year!" "Naaah, man...Santa Claus is not a musician!" "I'm hip, man...that kat didn't know ANY tunes!" We spotted a few orange-clad hunters lurking within sight of the roadway...hope no deer bolts between them and the pavement...could prove to hamper our state's tourism industry further if gay hunters accidentally shoot pickup trucks instead of deer! We discussed other possible locations to scout for future tin-hunting adventures...possibly south. "Down in Oklahoma everybody wore hats, And they looked at us funny so we got outta there fast. We missed a girl by missing her cats, We missed a guy with a sign that said 'Missisippi Flats'..." Hey, Jay...forgot to tell ya...there's a house on Michigan Avenue just a wee bit east of 275 on the north side. Usually has some old stuff in the driveway...some for sale. Might be worth a look??? I also know of a few possible locations out south of Belleville if you want to make another expedition sometime soon....or we could buzz up the highway to a few places up north??? "Didja ever drive at night blaring Chemical Wire? Passing station wagons with engines on fire. It's snowing in the desert and I don't understand... I vote, I gloat...but this land ain't my land..." Maybe that Texas Roadtrip ain't such a bad idea after all?? Think of the stories we could tell after that trip!!! My car has a free-flowing, Full Race exhaust system on it now...so we should see IMPROVED mileage figures....saving more pennies for Sonic refueling and Hardees transfusions in between Waffle House lay-overs... "I don't need your evil hatred, Cuz I'm in love.... With a Waffle House waitress" Cool to read about T-coupe's finds... We'll score ya a cowl or something soon... ...or maybe just shoot some penned up deer. ("Those are COWS!") Yeah...but can we shoot 'em???
You forgot about the 20 lb turkey shot with a 3 in Magnum slug... I wonder if Waffle House has a credit card? Only 1 month til Christmas, and 11 days off. WhiskeyTallFalls Texas is 1437.37 miles from my house, we got a Metro, an empty pack of Marlboro reds, it's 60 degrees, and a Stovebolt with no home... Hit it. Jay
Has your Metro got the optional Rope starter-in case the battery dies? also HACK -GAS IS CHEEPER IN THAT AREA.
Hell, depending on how we angle the "T" frame, we might be able to produce some lift and "fly" part way home! Are you sure that the frame won't exceed the GVWR? Jay
