Nice!<br /><br />I saw a great bumper sticker the other day on a 5.0 Mustang. It said:<br /><br />"My lug nuts have more torque than your Honda".<br /><br /> :D

My step son found it, bought it, lost interest as usual and I got it from him. As to a Garage, I will be able to store it over the winter here where I work, but its under a carport at home next to Mommas PT Cruiser Dream edition. Both backed in, They look pretty cool together.<br /><br />Guess I havnt mentioned that yet!

Nice ride, LD. I got a '67 Cutlass F-85 that same color - wish it was a 2-door! However, mine only has 2,000 miles on it! Really! Sold it to a little old lady after her husband died - he was a mechanic and never let her buy a new car. She never drove it! We would put the miles on it picking it up for the annual state inspections, change oil, etc. She sold it back to us in '82. Most of the belts are still original (cracked, but original). Original paint is still on engine. We fire her up periodically and take her for a spin a few time a year to clean the rust off the brake linings! Garage kept all her life!<br /><br />Yep, sure wish she was a 2-door. Would be worth a lot more!

I know where there is an original 62 ford galaxi Hi-Pro, 4 sp, 427 and all with about 20 miles on it and has never even been registered or wet setting on blocks in a garage. 100% original.<br /><br />No, he wont sell it.

'dude. I thought '62 would of been a 406? Did they even have the 427 then?<br /><br />If you can get a picture of that, I would love to see it. That'd been something like Freddy Lorenzen would have driven back in the '60s Nascar days.

Very Nice, LD!! I bought a '67 Camaro RS/SS396 new. I gave it to my son in '97. He sold it the next year to buy a house :( .<br /><br />CD

Nice looking muscle car. I wouldn't hesitate to race it against a German Race Car for pink slip if I own one. :rolleyes: .

No, really, where do you mount the outboard to take people fishing? You gotta make a living somehow. Yes, I'm still jealous of your thread about your job and now you go and grab a classic like this.
