Too many vehicles to keep insurance on at one time

Awesome, if you have more pics please share them. I love the binders.
I'm leisurely keeping my eye out for a good IH truck with a 304 as I'd love to have one as a driver.

Hey Mac, I think you may need an overseas adopted son to spoil with old cars...

Just think, someday you will have to retrofit all your vehicles with electric drivelines.

I had one more '50 Ford coupe that was outside but I couldn't find the pictures of it. Somebody put my pictures is the computer, all willy-nilly.
Bama, I never let a thing like 'thinking ahead' slow me down.
Snopro, this truck is in pretty good shape but it is a heavy one ton with duals.
Dutch, the offer is still open; give me all of your savings and come and pick roots all summer for a project truck.
Bob, one of my nephews thought that the Desoto should be made into an electric car. He may have read something in my face at the time and has never been back to visit.
Skip, I don't get to display them as yard art, so nobody else can either.
Dr. C, that sentiment might have been what was quietly written all over my face when my nephew suggested electric power when I was thinking 354 Hemi.
I thought at first that the two pics were of the same car but they are not. The rear view one is my uncles '49 Ford two door which I have sold now., but the side view one is still out there.

Bob, why do you think I don't have a bunch of cool yard art. [hint hint]

I do! I do! Very cool for yard art or rolling stock. I like anything with four wheels. preferably a consumer of fossil fuels. Although I wouldn't be opposed to building an electric something, if someone dumped a wrecked Prius or Tesla in my yard.

Wow! And, hmmmm. [S I wonder what it would take to fit all that 'lectiic stuff in a Model A or something. Maybe a discussion for the crazy ideas section.

There`s no way to get a home built electric car on the road legally here. Tech inspectors won`t look at it.
I can`t say I blame them. Imagine working for a roadside assistance company

Holy moly. Those things are unsafe! They should be outlawed.

Just a few bugs to work out.Holy moly. Those things are unsafe! They should be outlawed.
Must have been parked in front of the Portland courthouse or downtown Minneapolis last summer.
I see Tesla has to come up with a noisemaker because people can't hear them coming. Top fuel dragster noise would work.[ddd

That sounds good. Maybe have a proximity detector to set off the "noise maker". That would make it even more fun.Just a few bugs to work out.

Bob W, we have a misunderstanding [higher up on the page], about yard art. I have some potential yard art, but it only becomes yard art if it is in front of the house, where as mine has to stay behind the house. In fact, my inventory has to stay behind the outbuildings which are behind the shop which is behind the house.
