i traded that yellow mustang as a roller, no motor or trans for a 65 chevy swb truck that had a 454 and th400. I kept motor and trans and traded 65 truck body for a 70 and 72 swb chevy trucks that I ended up giving to a good friend of mine. HOWEVER I still have a 93 mustang 5.0 notch and a 88 gt vert that has a ton of crap done to it that I would be willing to part with . The 93 mustang is in the alternative tinkerings forum here. I just got it a month ago. Traded my 97 mustang gt vert for my 2000 trans am... good trade.

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.

Re: more than one project at a time....???

We use the truck for camping
after finding collecting rust free doors/fenders and other stuff for my
85 4X4 Suburban over the last few years
I found out it was really an 88
It had to become an 88 it's next sticker Dec
which would have meant $$+Etesting
not to be, it was hit and written off by a drunk driver Nov
this is my third truck hit by a drunk driver,2nd written off,all while parked
I've since picked up a 78 Jimmy 4X4 in Oct
Plus rebuilding our trailer over the last few years
the truck stays with the trailer all summer
last year 2010 we did a new deck 12x24
I don't have a garage to work in at home so the laneway it is right now
the town house garage slopes up to the back
the burb dosn't even fit in
cleaning the workshop/furnce room started the night before the burb was hit
still torn apart
but have refinished an oak bedroom set,painted my sons bedroom
Christmas eve the crank seal went on the Grand Am
and Christmas Holidays we painted the living room Newyears eve.....
finished as company arrived
And thats about it

Tell me about the novas! I am building a 68 nova. It was an old drag car.. Too rough to build but I did anyways. New quarters, complete trunk floor with braces, tail pan, rebuilt gaskit lip around trunk etc. on hold till summer.
