    Excessive posting? ... Interesting.....

    My dad used to get free Lawnmowers all the time. He had a small engine repair shop from the time I was 3 or 4, until I was about 12, when he gave it up to focus on the gun sales more (he did both from our barn, and then later a shop in town.) People would bring them in for repairs, and if they...

    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    I've had a Buick Electra and a Cadillac Fleetwood, there is little difference, when you get down to it. I happen to prefer the Caddy for a few extra details/gingerbread, and the prestige of the name. Besides a matter of preference, they're pretty much the same thing. Around here...

    No green, I have two orange models! I don't have the ridiculous tires or muffler on mine, though.

    Yes it was. You don't have to justify it. I have two garden tractors and I don't even have a lawn!

    Vintage Car Thread - Discussion and Parts Requests

    That baby had everything and the kitchen sink. All the power goodies, all the deluxe add-ons, heck, I didn't even know Olds had the Autronic Eye in '53. On the note of back-up lights, my 58 and 60 Chevy Sedans didn't have them, I think only the Impalas did. QUOTE=Big Man;1791758]...

    Besides needing to pinstripe the new fender, you wouldn't notice the difference. I couldn't have done it without my dad and brother in law helping me. Jeff had a Bonneville and had to do the same to it. Ever since she told me she wants a Caddy like mine, I've been on the lookout for a beater...

    Of course I'm going to fix it, I just got her the car 3 weeks ago, or so. No, I don't have a dealer's license, unless you would care to lend me 50 grand ;) She doesn't want a truck, she likes sedans lol Something newer? You clearly don't know who you're talking to :p NO! She didn't...

    Yup she hit a deer. Oh, yes. Luckily, I found a new hood, fender, and headlight/cornering lamp assembly. The hood and fender are at the body shop and will be painted and ready tomorrow.

    Well, in relation to our discussion of the woman not driving the Caddy, she smashed up her Bonneville. Yet another project on my plate I don't want.

    That would mean I let her drive it! I'll let her stick to the Bonneville. Once she actually LEARNS to drive, maybe I'll let her behind the wheel of the brougham :p Physically, no, mechanically, yes. Big block, 3/4 ton frame, 1 ton suspension, 4.10 gears, 5 speed Allison. It's a monster...

    She does know that. I let her drive my truck while I was doing some roofing, to run some errands for me, though. Figured she couldn't break that monster too easy lol On that note, my two favorite ladies in my life:

    Don't even say that, I've already had to put a new hood, grille, and headlight on my Brougham! (And she's a terrible driver) Farms are great, especially if they have plenty of storage space for autos. I'm not doing anything of the sort! lol

    She starts driving a Brougham, she's gonna improve her odds :p And you wonder why I wanna buy a farm? lol She's a doll and then some!
