Congratulations to both of you for all your successes. Nothing comes easy but there are ways to make it easier and that's how you both roll, I believe. It takes two baby!

You could pass for 20 in that picture

**Palf70Step** · 11-27-2019, 09:12 AM

Congratulations Mr Larry!

That makes two of us! I remember when I woke up the morning after a car accident in the hospital, and had no idea what happened. I got up and wheeled my IV stand along down the hall to the nurses' station to see what was going on. They were shocked to see me out of bed walking and hurried me back to bed. The one nurse later told me they got a big kick out of that and the fact my buns were showing on my way back the hallway, gown wasn't tied. I was doped up with a broken jaw and one knee laid open, among other things, from a head-on I was lucky to have survived.

I wonder what my grandson is telling his horse?

**special-K** · 12-12-2019, 06:38 AM

His horse looks like Mr. Ed. No telling what they might be talking about

You guys are pretty cool but are you two throwin down some kind of Arkansas gang signs?

Killer Bee · 12-22-2019, 07:13 PM

Annie Oakley's maybe. Had sunglasses been invented by that time?

Those were the days. Nobody took the keys out of anything, or locked a door. I guess in a way were throwin' down the sign.

**davischevy** · 12-23-2019, 01:30 AM

I'll bet my parents looked at me and thought "What the hell were we thinking?".

**special-K** · 12-23-2019, 12:18 AM

Foster Grants were the buzz back then. Or was it Cool Rays?

That's a good picture for the "Vintage Picture Thread" in 67-72 forum

**davischevy** · 12-23-2019, 12:55 AM

The cousin had a Plymouth Satellite sleeper. It was a Raod Runner in disguise, with 383 Magnum, four speed and sure grip. About the time that picture was taken, we sent out to Industrial Park Road one morning for a match race. I had a 70 Chevelle 396, four speed, and my uncle had a 66 Ford Fairlane that was pieced together,(another sleeper).

I ran the Satellite first, both of us not taking the Fairlane seriously. He beat me about half a car twice, then he ran the Fairlane and it beat him twice. Like I said we learned the true meaning of sleeper that day.

**special-K** · 12-23-2019, 07:21 AM

Hair all down in your face like one a them mop top Beatles. No Brycreme, just a floppin' in the wind. Next thing you'll be talkin' all that hippy talk, yeah man, cool, hip, groovy, and all that! My my my

**Ol Blue K20** · 12-23-2019, 12:00 PM

Hmmm...I was nine years old in 1970 and didn't know what cool was....

GOPAPA · 12-23-2019, 12:42 PM

Well ,,there you are on the couch Larry ,,,,,,,,,,looking comfortable in a way that would throw my back out these days ..Let's see..?..I remember going shirtless ,,but didn't have a lot of pictures taken as it was flash bulb in the house back then for me except for out side ..and I do have a skinny version of me on the beach with my best friends 57 Vette.. still had my shirt on as Oregon beaches were never real warm..

looking Cool

**davischevy** · 12-23-2019, 01:44 PM

I think that picture was taken in Southern California in 1973. I don't think I have any from the beach on that trip.

**special-K** · 12-24-2019, 08:29 AM

...

**davischevy** · 12-24-2019, 05:09 PM

I was telling a young girl in the office the other day that four years after that picture was taken I sold my first $700,000 (Todays dollars) house. Looking back, It never occurred to me I couldn't do it. I don't know if I was confident or stupid.

**davischevy** · 12-24-2019, 05:14 PM

When you load the little woman up in the El Camino, and head for Washington DC in July, and the blower motor on the AC quits in Columbus, OH, naturally you pull into a motel, find a shade, pull the inner fender and change it.

GOPAPA · 12-24-2019, 05:46 PM

That's a story with a good ending .. did ya have the spare blower motor with you ,just in case? Is that blanket from the motel? and who's that ol guy? just funnin with ya .. I guess all went well after fixen the AC. I think you are like us ,,Our son is having Christmas with her folks and then we will have ours with him and his sister on the 28th so , I just happened to be available on this Christmas Eve to catch your posting .. glad I did ..

**Boog** · 12-24-2019, 05:53 PM

I don't know but it looks like the guy is asking you if the blower motor isn't back there?

**davischevy** · 12-24-2019, 10:31 PM

My friend (the one observing) drove me to the parts store for a new fan motor. We had to change the fan as I remember it, and use a chisel to "brad" in on. That was ten years ago and it is still working. I was putting the last bolts in the inner fender. I always keep a couple of old blankets in the back of the El Camino to keep bags and tool boxes from scratching the floor.

We just got home from my sisters and need to get in bed so we can get up and go see the kids open presents tomorrow.
