Misery loves company
Hey Glassvair, You know how folks will encourage you to look for a guy that has it worse than you, when you are suffering? I'm your guy. In 1965 I had a '31 ford 5 window coupe with a Olds engine, Dual range Hydro trans, Chevy rear end, Casler cheater slicks, ladder style traction bars, etc. It was primered and sat in my driveway waiting for a battery and some fuel line. I never did hear it run, 'cuz I traded it for $15.00 , a FOUR TRACK tape player, four tapes and some speakers! OOOOOOOOH! I was smart! Hope you feel better now,

Late response, sorry
Howdy, I bought it from a guy in Vista, CA. It was pretty bad off. I dumped every nickel I could gather into the thing. It still wasn't any "Cherry". The body was straight, and in black primer. I never had it on the street. The guy bought it from me before I had money for a battery and some fuel line. The guy I "sold" it to lived here in Fallbrook. He had a '32 Roadster Highboy that was pretty nice. It was a "plain" car, but well done. I had a '56 Chevy wagon (Non-Nomad). I sold it to a friend for $85.00. We lived in a rural area, and some folks used to have their own fuel tanks in the ground. Well, he took my car and went to a neighbors house to steal some gas. He got caught. Nobody called the Police. The home owner simply unloaded his 30/40 Krag into the car. That killed it. They buried the car with a bulldozer, I'm told. So, if anyone needs a set of "Power Pack" heads, bring a shovel and I'll point you in the general direction of the "grave". Man, that seems like a long time ago! Feelin' old!,
Nice pics! I'm looking forward to seeing more of that Overhaulin' Mustang....looks very Mad Max-ish. That new co-host is underwhelming; her boyfriend or husband is the show's producer, as I hear it. I miss Courtney. 
The OCC bike picture reminded me of an old joke. Q: How come Harley-Davidson never made refrigerators? A: They couldn't figure out how to make them leak oil.

I hope I'm not revealing it here but Courtney Hansen will be taking Danica Patricks place in hosting PowerBlockTV on Spike. And she just recently broke her arm when a car hood closed on it. The garbage on her legs is a series of Tattoos. While not a fan of heavily tattoed women or "tramps stamps". I think they work on her.

[QUOTE="newmanx59"]Oh Dave you did it now! You let the cat out of the bag I also liked Courtney on Overhaulin far better then the new girl. ([/QUOTE] Beyond being 'easy on the eyes,' Courtney was cool because she was right there working on the cars, right alongside the 'A-Team.' She scraped undercoating, smashed glass, and all manner of other cool stuff....... to me, that's a lady. I've only seen the new 'co-host' inside a garage once or twice - she's usually outside, sitting in the grass by the shop sign.
