You guys saved the dixie destroyer from death

Im sure some of you remeber the other day I was burned out and fed up with my 71.I was to the point I was gonna litterally cut it up for scrap and give up..but I was standing next to it with a sawzaw ready to end its miserable existence and be done with it...then I started to remance about the last time my ole chevy cruised down in flordia and all the other good times with it,I couldnt bring myself to do it..felt like killing family..So this time im dusting myself off,gonna grab some metal and fix it..cause I aint got the heart to slay my poor poor baby.So thanks to the board and all the awesome project threads..My 71 will come back with a firey vengance full of hell fire and defiance of defeat..thanks to everyone on the board who inspired me to take a rusty swamp truck and restore it again to preserve my own history and what america used to stand for
