Well,
I think they are kind of make believe
Similar to the pic below
But
If a gentleman wanted one
He could, Search the internet
And Find one

So
I don’t really see the point
In carrying
A
Man card

Welp, I was wadering around the neighborhood yesterday, pushing my napping kiddo and ended up spotting a 84-87 gmc. Rough paint but solid, also spotted two under cover cars and played the guessing game. Got pretty close on one. I was thinking 3rd Gen camaro, but ended up being a 87 trans am. Nice old fella named Norm (73) was the owner looking to sell. His wife recently had a stroke and he's trying to get it out of his driveway. Told him my wife would kill me if I brought another project home. Plus I'm not really into the 3rd Gen trans am. But I posted it up on Craigslist for him and am gonna make sure scammers don't rip him off. I might swing by his place this afternoon and see if we can get it fired up, so it'll sell quicker. The other mystery car I didn't get confirmation on but I'm pretty sure it's a 66-67 chevelle or similar. I could see a rally wheel and blue rocker peeking from the cover. Man, as soon as I finish Rhonda, I'm hunting for a 66 chevelle. I'd like to go ls and matching trans on a holly efi and daily drive it. Nice seeing some other project cars in the neighborhood. Seems like it's hard to find guys my age (29) still into wrenching on old cars for fun. All my (few) friends are into games and don't speak car beyond dropping it off at the dealer for a oil change.

It seems like I'm seeing more young people at the Good guys event's.

It just seems that way, but really it's us getting older

It's true. They keep on coming along. Good to see.

What a wife!

A police officer pulls over a speeding car. The officer says, "I clocked you at 80 miles per hour, sir."
The driver says, "Goodness, officer, I had it on cruise control at 60; perhaps your radar gun needs calibrating."
Not looking up from her knitting the wife says: "Now don't be silly, dear -- you know that this car doesn't have cruise control"

As the officer writes out the ticket, the driver looks over at his wife and growls, "Can't you please keep your mouth shut for once!!?"
The wife smiles demurely and says, "Well dear you should be thankful your radar detector went off when it did or your speed would have been higher."

As the officer makes out the second ticket for the illegal radar detector unit, the man glowers at his wife and says through clenched teeth, "Woman, can't you keep your mouth shut?"

The officer frowns and says, "And I notice that you're not wearing your seat belt, sir. That's an automatic $75 fine".
The driver says, "Yeah, well, you see, officer, I had it on, but I took it off when you pulled me over so that I could get my license out of my back pocket."
The wife says, "Now, dear, you know very well that you didn't have your seat belt on. You never wear your seat belt when you're driving."

And as the police officer is writing out the third ticket, the driver turns to his wife and barks, "WILL YOU PLEASE SHUT UP??"
The officer looks over at the woman and asks, "Does your husband always talk to you this way, Ma'am?"

"Only when he's been drinking."

**special-K** · 05-16-2018, 08:12 PM

Ohhh nooo... time to stop knitting and start driving.

**davischevy** · 05-17-2018, 05:08 PM

Does this motorcycle Make me look fat?

I think it's the fat that makes me look fat.

Looks like Easy Rider to me.

**special-K** · 05-17-2018, 08:57 PM

That bike brings out the hog in you. Nice one too.

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-18-2018, 09:58 AM

Nice bike, it's getting time to break them out again.

**special-K** · 05-19-2018, 06:21 AM

Easy Wider?

Nah, it's the leather. Doesn't conform to the figure

. HEY! That's an older picture. I used to weigh more, too.

**davischevy** · 05-19-2018, 03:44 PM

My lawyer ended up with that bike.

I sued a doctor for final payment. I won the case lock, stock and barrel, and the doctor filed bankruptcy. The doctor was sleaze ball. I lost $30,000 and the bike. Even his mother in law lost $50,000 in the deal.

I had already bought an Evo so I let the lawyer have the shovel head. He still has it and it is in his will.

I had to eat a little lighter for a while.

**Dieselwrencher** · 05-23-2018, 04:40 PM

Sorry to hear that Larry.

Life is a box of chocolates, you never know what your gonna get. (Forrest Gump)

Luckily I've received a lot more good chocolate than bad. I'm not gonna complain.

And for a comparison you can relate to Ryan, it cost twice as much to replace a 60 series Detroit as two of those motorcycles.

**Ol Blue K20** · 05-24-2018, 10:56 AM

I wouldn't want to think about replacing my bike. I've gotten to where I hate making payments.

**davischevy** · 05-24-2018, 11:22 AM

I've always saved the money up till I could pay for them. I dislike the obligation of payments.

I feel like this is turning into Facebike
