That barn is magnificent! Wow! Do you have a car lift in it yet?

Nice rides man! Dawsonville, huh! Home of Bill Elliott . Not far from me in Clemson SC.
I really like the 64 Impala. I just got one my self back in July of last year. Truck is very nice too!

Put me down for a "nice barn" comment, too.

Reminds me of a story: My buddy Tom was getting ready to build a new barn at his place and was looking at a lot of pictures, deciding on an architectural style, roof type, with or without a cupola, etc.

He and I had to go visit this lady's office for something work related; she was obviously an "equestrian" since her desk and office area were covered with photos: pictures of mighty steeds, steam rising from their nostrils, their black coats glistening in the sun. The property looked pretty impressive, too, with white picket fences and big barns.

When we were done with our meeting Tom asked her "...are those your horses?"

She said "yes" and took a breath, as if to give us more detail, but he and I cut her off saying at the exact same instant... "nice barn."

Gotta have right priorities, you know -

What size tire are you running, front and back? Thanks.

275/40 rear & 245/40 front I believe...

thanks for the comments on the barn! I love it. I always wanted to do a shop but wanted it to look like a old barn from outside. no lift "yet"!

I found the old Iroc last year,,, as a teen that was the go fast sports car... I even had a poster of one on my wall(white one I believe). the yellow gold color is a pretty rare, 3200 I believe that year. I love the softer yellow, its not screaming in your face. its all original except for the tires and battery. 15,555 miles. still got the window sticker, manuals, keys, everything...

the 64 impala was my first old car. its actually got a trans issue right now. must have busted a seal or something sitting. I gotta get that looked at soon.
