Cool photo. Any old photo with your Dad and an old car is cool.

We all know that extra garage space is a good thing, especially when it's free! A local farmer has this building near me that he wasn't using and it needed some repairs. He's letting me store "extra" vehicles there in exchange for me mowing around and maintaining the building. Actually he said that I could just use it, but it's the least I can do to make repairs and maintain it. So far I've used it to stash a junk 70 C10 that I parted and I store my 72 C20 there most of the time as well.

What a deal!!! It's nice that you threw in maintenance. It works out for everyone. :)

The Vette was a gutless 76. Ahh the good old days of emission controls smothering out horsepower.

The one Harley is a 79 and the other is a 1942 WLA. My brother still has the 42 and it's fully restored now.

Well at least it picked the right place to die. And hopefully the hole wasn't "occupied'.

i thought that too but when I blew up the pictures to post I saw all the mud and damage on the passenger side. i think I came by right after they pulled it out, they were all milling around it and i used photo editing software to remove them and the names on the gravestones.

Better get crackin' so you can get some practice on that thing. Seeing it makes me want to order up a steak & cheese sub with fried onions so I can watch you round up those onions with your spatula and rap it on the grille


Do you know this guy?

Random. I snapped these pictures at our local ATHS show last fall

Philly CheatSteaks On The Blackstone Griddle - YouTube

I don't know him but he's got the right idea.

I was planning on making Oklahoma Smash Burgers & Chili Cheese Dogs on my hot dog roller and fresh cut Animal French Fries in my deep fryer. It's going to be a Cholesterol bomb.

I have the same Tony Luke knife to slice sandwiches as he does. It works great. Dull knives are the worst. Nothing beats a sharp knife and a lot of onions.

Nice looking shooting irons. My arthritic old hand needs a thumbhole stock. I bought this Hogue stock to check out the needs for a wood stock (cheek height, pull length). I have a plank of walnut with some wild grain in it that I'm considering using.

Super Tug working our local airshow several years ago.

Cool little tug! Good taste in wheels.

Question: Ya think it might be a little overkill running a supercharger? :confused:

Answer: Absolutely! :bann:

We just got a bench with arbor delivered. Standing on end, where there are arrows on every side, pointing "This Side Up", and beat to snot with parts hanging out. Took pics, we'll call the vendor.

As a former owner of a real AMX not to sure what to think of this 77. He cranked it up for me, has a nice lopy cam. I’ll toss in a pick of my old one too.

Those two cars occupy two completely different places in my mind. I like yours for what it is as a representative of the muscle car era. Good photo, but looks like it was a little foggy that day? I like the green one in that it represents an era where the automakers were doing what they could muster in the wake of the gas crisis. The era of where the Mustang King Cobra shared its chassis with the Pinto, etc. I like that they were trying to do something to set those cars apart and that one is certainly eye-catching. From that era I think one of my favorites would be the Chevy Monza Spyder.
