    Withdrawl pains allready

     



    ALL of you better walk over to the wall and pull the plug that connects to youre "Idiot Box" and go do something worthwhile. TV's "Americas Wasteland", the news isnt even worth watching. If you dont get creative it could be a LOOOOONG winter.

    What??? and give up Speed TV??? Along with it I also enjoy the Discovery Channel, History Channel, and the Powerblock thingy on Sunday morning.... Can't say much about the rest of the selections that are offered, but I guess someone must be watching them....

    Back when I could still work 18 hours a day, TV wasn't on my schedule at all... Now it fills in a lot of the R&R time... Don't think I'd want to give it up completely, takes some searching, but there's some very good shows on the tube these days, too....

    Dave,you could come out to Arizona and join the rest of the "Snow Birds" this is when we can work on our cars,the cruises are huge, sometimes 300-400 cars show up every weekend! I will be going to the Nostalgia Drags and show at Speedworld this Sunday,so put up the snow shovel and help stimulate our economy!

    Dave,
    This is just to get you in the mood.

    My son bought this 66 Stang 21 years ago, we took it all apart, sandblasted, replaced the quarters (paid a guy and I helped with the welding), replaced the floors, inner wheel house, straightened and patched in the pannel between the headlights, replaced rear frame rails, did a little body work and sprayed lots and lots of restoleum primer. We worked on it for 2 years. I found a pretty good 65 coupe in a junkyard, took the motor out of the fastback, and got it on the road for him. That was the last time the 66 got worked on. He's got all kinds of "new 21 year old parts" for it. I think it's time to get it on the road. BUT not until my T coupe is done though.
