If you don't mind me asking, what other cars have you kept since new?

[old man jimmy]

No don't mind you asking Jack. A 64 electra 225 rag top, 68 Chevelle, 71 LTD and 72 Centurian. Had some before and in between, but these have special memories.

Hice looking Blaz. Welcome from Royse City.

For those that like pictures. Went out today and shot some. Kinda ashamed of the way it looks now. (never has looked this bad) made a couple changes to fit my needs. Used to camp, fish, hunt with it a lot. Bed opens to fill the back, and cut up an old cabin tent to go over gates. No motor home, but I can get it where I want to go. Hope I'm not boring you all. But nice to talk jimmy blazer.

Good looking jimmy! Wish my dad had kept all the vehicles he bought back in the late 60's early 70's.

[old man jimmy]

Thaks Krue. But money wise I really messed up on one I got rid of. Picture of 66 plymouth I also ordered. Sold it in 70. BIG MISTAKE. I know this is truck forum. But none of my older wheels were trucks. When I was young trucks never left the farm. But thought might let you now, I'm not smart on what to keep. These guys on here from what I've seen have more talent in their little finger than I do in my whole body. Some of the projects they bite into are amazing. It's far easier to keep them up, than to fix them up. My hats off to you guys. And thankfull you are saving the old iron from the crusher.

Thanks for the pics. and memories. I've had a few I shouldn't of let go myself.

Wouldn't mind if the LTD was crushed just kidding

Nice truck, very functional... J.

Great mods.

I like seeing the "real world" trucks more than "trailer queens" anyway.

[Yukon Jack]

The Jimmy looks great to me - it is modified to do what you need and that is what it is all about. Making what you want/need.

[Yukon Jack]

BTW, that 66 Plymouth is so cool. What were it's stats. Would really enjoy seeing more pictures of your older vehicles whether you still have them or not. I was born in 67 so I missed out on these vehicles when they came out but sure do appreciate them!

Welcome from Bluemont, Va. Good to see original owner iron.

[old man jimmy]

Sorry didn't give any stats on 66 jack. My age showing again. Thought the emblem on bottom of fender said it all. It was a 426 Hemi, 4 speed, 2 afbs, 456 dana. was real scary car in its day. Don't think this is the place to post this sort of thing. will try the private massage thing if you want more. Sorry guys.

[DURRTY]

WOW that is really nice thats all I can say man NICE work.

66 Hemi car!!!!! WHAT were you thinking??? The selling price of that car today would go a long way to supplement your retirement!!! Very cool picture. Love the old cheater slicks. I would have loved to have riden in it. Thanks for sharing. I know this is an old post but just ran across it.
