I feel sorry for the flathead-------that's about it.

You really shouldn't mess with the natural selection of things in this world...nature has it's own way of cleansing the gene pool.

Bob (I should be calling you Uncle but me being older it just doesn't sound right), what, no Jim Kweskin, Hot Tuna, Papa John Kreach, or Beaver and Krouse?

Hey,I dont mind Uncle Bob flyin with his Iron Butterfly,,
And bogart that joint in Dennis Hoppers memory...

Fireboy fits the Forrest Gump statement" Stupid is as stupid does!"
I guess he never thought to rent a trailer to get the truck to the show? Might have cost a few bucks, but a burned flathead's gonna cost ever more.
Maybe we should start a hotrod Darwin awards thread(good idea Bob) and post stories of what not to do, to help all of our poor souls here!

lamin,

I don't mind either, just exploring the width and depth of Bob's listening pleasures. By the way, I forgot Dan Hicks and his hot licks.

Jack.

I know better than to get into a contest over obscure bands with someone who's got the same birthday as Billy F. Gibbon.....

Bob...

Here's to you, Northwest Socks and Sandles guy!

First: Sorry Bart, your thread has been officially highjacked....

Are you and Severson brothers?

OK,

To get back on topic, I and my friends at the time never put a glass bottle on the engine to use as a temp. gas tank. We did however take my 35 ford 4 door on it's maiden voyage at night with no tail lights or brake lights whatsoever (not even the housings), no exhaust (right out of the block), no gas pedal (friend worked the gas by reaching through the floor board), 4 bald tires with thread showing, and mech. brakes that just worked. You can imagine the horror of the CHP officer when we crossed the Bayshore freeway in front of him. Took him close to 45 min to write that ticket and read us the riot act. He let me drive it home as I lived just a couple of blocks away.

Been there. I had a 65 chevy super sport with a built 327. I use to manage a automatic car wash in my earlier days and put all the cops thru at N/C. That included states troopers. I got to know most of them pretty well to a point where they would bring me down a 6 pack of beer at night . One night I was going home and decided to see how fast my 65 would go and since I was half in the bag, I saw no problem with this. A peg my needle at 120 and was still going strong although my front end was all over the road. I drove home happier that a lark and the next day one of the troopers stopped down and showed me a piece of paper. He said "Bart I clocked you at 128MPH and knew it was you" because I had open exhaust pipes and you could hear me a mile away. He knew he wouldn't catch me and just let me go. I thought he would give me a ticket but because of my job and putting all there vehicles thru at N/C, he let me go. I still have that piece of paper. The crazy things you do when your young and live to tell the tales.

Hi Bart,

Amen. What say you about keeping this thread alive by seeing how many are willing to tell us about some of there stupid antics? I'm sure there are some beauts.

Jack.
