Thanks! That lets me know I got a deal on mine!

Don, you didn't by chance see what the two 82 Corvette Collectors Editions sold for did you? I was hoping to see one or both cross the block but missed both. Mecum hasn't posted any prices yet on their website. One of them is very close to our car, it has 56,000 miles, ours has 60,000 on it...

Check or money order was the only way for years. Some of the wife’s relatives won’t use a bank other than to get their SS check, they get a money order for their phone and electric bills and mail them in. USPS used to reimburse you if you didn’t receive what you had ordered and paid by their...

You can bring me the blue SS Chevelle or the black Mustang fastback. Just park it in the driveway, leave the keys under the floormat. :LOL::LOL::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:

I try to be like Gene and stay ahead with parts, but sometimes things just don’t work out. Like this week, I’ve been doing belts, hoses, and heater core on the Vette. I’ve made two different orders with rock auto, ended up having three different shipping locations on one order, one on the other...

IIRC, your find Gene caused GM to add a ground strap under the coil on the HEI to prevent it blowing through the rotor. Great detective work Gene!

We're already into spring. Trees are budding and blooming, grass is greening up showing signs of life again. But, we're in monsoon season. March is our wettest month, and it's been living up to it. Got 3.25" of rain in 12 hours last week, rain coming tonight, scattered rain tue through...

So you're setting up the Tcase to work like an old Jeep, 1 lever for FWD, 1 for high -low? Neat. Low 2wd can come in handy to pull out of a rough spot, like pulling a trailer out of a muddy yard. Brackets look great. Especially like the MF badging!

Can’t believe I didn’t mention Torchie. Donsrods was still around last I heard, but he doesn’t post anymore. Haven’t heard from Sgt Pontiac in ages, either. So many I can’t think of that were regulars just quit showing up, makes you wonder what happened to them.

For sure! I retired at 62 but kept working part time for another year and a half, blew up my last truck and said that’s it, I quit. Fully retired in Sept 22, turn 65 next month. Stay busier now than I did when I was working full time!

I hate clowns.

Getting there!

That really is a rust bucket! Or a bucket of rust!

Good to hear from ya Eric! I posted a Mia on you a couple of times, really missed you around here! We’ve lost a few guys since you were here last, Dr Crankenstein and Willowbilly3 both have passed away. Billy checked in the other day, first time he’s been on in a few years. Good to see old...

Got a show coming up over in Sumiton on March 2, maybe you’ll feel up to coming out a little while. We’ll be in the wife’s Corvette, my car is still down, haven’t had time to look at it.

As long as it does the job, that’s all that matters. It probably won’t last as long as a name brand might, but with light usage it should last a long time. I had a Bulldog brand flux core I bought off eBay for about $95 several years ago, it did fine until it was stolen. I’ve got a friend that...

We didn’t get a color TV until around 1973. Had to let the old b&w set die before they would buy another one. I knew of color tv because one of my uncles had one as long as I could remember. My parents didn’t get AC until around 1980, two years after I married and moved out. I think the first...

Grew up with septic tank, house I moved into after we got married was is septic tank, probably put in about the same time as my Mom’s was, mid 60’s. Best thing I ever did was dig up the old terra cotta lines and replace them with thick wall sch 40 pvc. Terra cotta is made from paper, rags, and...

At $54, that was probably more than the Vega was worth! A hard lesson for sure!

That double blower coupe is wild!
