Well I bought a 74 Maverick today. It has been parked on the same road that I live on for 10 years and the guy would not sell it. Today he decided that if I can make it look as good as mine that he will sell it to me!! Scott Remember that Blue one I pointed at that day you came over? Thats the one. Its going to be the wifes new Cruise car this car has Bucket seats,AC,Disk brakes and no rust!!Its a 250ci Auto. think I'm bolting a 5.0 to the C-4 and going!!

Scott Yup thats the one! I've been bugging him for 10 years! He finally gave in! As for Parking I'm renting a Garage in the same Barn as my son's Mustang is in. So this one will go in the back yard where mine was.

Gunrocker and I just put our "Baby Bird" (Falcon) to bed for the winter in my mother's garage. Sure wish we would get a decent day so we can take her out for a spin now and then... We always tease my mom that we check the mileage... (she's a "young" 87!)

Hey scott! I was wondering if you had gotten the video's Those are AVI files right off my Digital carmera. Me and Jim jr. Went to a local Factory parking lot and just did some burnouts and lunches with his car to adjust the traction bars. Someone came and booted us out of there pretty fast!
