at least once every month some one wipes out in this curve .. it`s not the least bit difficult to handle if you`re not speeding .. but kids in their slot car fast and furious stuff think they can take it at 70 .. NOT !!! .. this kid got lucky and stayed in the small ditch rather than going into the deep side .. loose gravel from some driveways up the hill gather on the roads edge and if you hit it at anything above 35 around and around you go where you end up you dont know .. many years ago 4 hunters were killed when they wrapped a big lincoln around one of the phone poles .. recently a semi did a nice 180 and blocked the road for a whole day ...i didn`t get a pic .. i`ll have more road rage tales soon .. i have several rants and pet pieves about some driving styles

Some one needs to make a road sign, "Idiots beware....this means you!

these are rotting away about 4 miles down the road from me .. not much happening in my world lately .. i did manage to blow up the motor in my stang again .. cutting some doughnuts and apparently slung the oil away from the pickup tube and spun some bearings .. gotta quit doing that .. 400 bucks for every doughnut session

go around the other way and the oil should go to the pick up

here is myself looking at myself on another car site .. if i had a " club hotrod " shirt i`d post myself in it .. you can see how buisy i am usually at work .. and my buddy carl childers hanging on my system "" uhphhmmp " i like em french fried taters ""

i hate people who pass ( or attempt ) to pass me on the right .. by that i mean i`m doing the speed limit and some person decides im` in their way and pulls out in a turning or merging lane to pass me on the right .. it usually dont happen .. especially if i see them in time .. my little V6 pinto aint no earth scoarcer but it will keep up with most anything short of a GT mustang ..i also hate tail gaters .. i will brake slam them in a second .. or just keep turning on my turn signal with no intention of turning ,, if i cant see the bottom of your front tire in contact with the hiway thru my rear view mirrow then you are too close ,, i once thought a cop was pulling me over for something as i could only see his blue lights .. come to find out there was a small car glued to my back bumper between us that i did`nt even know was there ..i hate overpass riders .. by that i mean people who get off the side road just to go over an overpass and avoid a light .. but it must not be against the law as even cops do it ..should be a law for impeeding traffic flow or something ..`im developing a bit of road rage in my old age ...

this is my 87 ford truck .. been a good old daily driver for 8 years .. has a very tired 6 banger .. thought about selling it when i got my dodge up and going .. now the latest plan is to destroy the 80 pinto since i cant seem to be able to sell it .. put the 351 in the truck and make another toy ..put the front suspention from the pinto under the stang .. gotta rebuild it anyway ..i already have the nescessary oil pan and frame mounts to do the job as i had almost did it 3 years ago ..dont know whether to keep the 4 speed or make it an automatic ,, cross that bridge in a week or so .

a buddy of mines latest ride .. i gotta introduce him to this site .. he`s been hooked on rods for a couple years .. got a 360 dodge in it .. just likes putting the glass back in and doing some interior and its done .. not gunna get clear coated ..

Nice ride Hoss! What are your plans for the Mustang?

if i cant sell the V8 pinto pretty soon i will just trash it .. cut the front end out and put it under the stang .. may put the windsor engine in the 87 pick up .. have to fix the motor in the stang again .. locked it up doing doughnuts again last weekend .. not starting out to be as good a year as i wanted .. my girlfriend has gone back to her other boyfriend .. my best dog got run over .. i wanted to quit drinking beer this year but that may have to wait .. i need to write some country songs ..i bought that new toyota and dont need it ..just aint been my year yet ..

on a more cheerful note .. warm weather is around the corner .. these will be out and about again i just noticed this thread celebrated its one year anniversary last week .. man .. been a fast year .

Hoot hoot! Happy anniversary. Thoughts for the day, rain dambed if it does, dambed if it doesn't. We need it to avoid a draught, but it always seems to come down on my days off!

if you sneak up real quiet you can catch a glimpse of the famousely shy round bales peacefully grazing in the morning dew .. the slightest noise though will send them scurrying back into the distance woods

mustang graveyard in alabama .. in celebrating the one year anniversary of this thread i didnt realise or simply had forgotten there was an 8 month gap in it .. no wonder the year seemed to go so fast

Some nice old fastbacks in there!
