Wow.... Youre way over to the left from home looking @ stuff. I'm not too far from Garland.

I haven't seen any GTX's or Vega GT's running around this area. Are these running/driving projects or finished 'investments'?

They are both hot rods not original just toys. I hope to buy something to drive home or I will have to buy a truck to pull one home. I will be going to the races tonight at Red river raceway. Anyone going to the races tonight?

Haven't heard of a Red-River raceway. Red-LIne Raceway in Greenville TX I've been to.

I'm having trouble finding a good old car for sale around here that is why I have to go to Dallas. I hope to find a Mopar or Vega this weekend. I sold the truck as planned now I will have to walk if I don't find a car.
