Field find in Oklahoma
So I'm back in Oklahoma last week, visiting a friend of mine.
His cousin comes into his shop and says " Think I found ya an ole car while I was out hog huntin"
Shows us a pic (he took on his cell phone) 10 minutes later we're all in my truck drivin out to the middle of nowhere Oklahoma.(20 miles down a dirt road)
Gotta climb over 2 barbed wire fence's and hike about 1/2 mile in.
Lo and behold we come across this.
The best part--- we get a hold of the owner of the property and he didn't even know it was out there.
So we end up buyin it for almost nothing.
100% complete with very little rust out (maybe 2 days work)
Yep there is still good iron out there !!!!!!!!!!!!!When I get to where I was goin, I forgot why I went there>

Very cool find, Don. Are you taking it back to AZ, or will your friend be building it in OK?Roger
Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.

I know that most everyone is aware of the intelligence, experience and "WIT" of many of the members of various Hot Rod Forums but I truly think that is one of the funniest comments I have seen in quite some time. Thanks for the sore ribs. Originally Posted by TooMany2count

I check in everyday and some are better than others. I don't think Brent has anything to do with the forum anymore, but I'm not sure. Hopefully as time moves on the forum will get better.
Where is everybody?
