Yeah, the guy that did that didn't have insurance. I'm just thankful for the seat belts. My wife was hosptalized but was out that night. Madonna was in a car seat that did it's job too. My knee came awful close to hitting the switsh to turn on the sparkers. With a full tank of gas running all over, there would have been a pretty big hole in downtown Gas City. RIP!

This is supposed to be the replacement that's in the garage covered with junk. Hopefully the cash will come soon....

I got a motor but it needs freshen up, want to put some disc brakes on the front and go thru the steering. Thought I'd make an effort to collect parts over the winter and maybe start for real next spring. Thought over the winter I could put new bushings in the front end, and mabe some new springs all the way around. I don't want this as low as the Merc. I've learned my lesson with that thing. Low is cool but not necessarily practical. (LOL) I want this one for traveling and camping in. I got most of the frontend sheet metal in the basement that's in pretty good shape, Got some inner fender panels this spring that are pretty good. I got plenty of tractor black!

Come on Doug what are you waiting for. If Chip doesn't get it soon, maybe you can get the car on Pimp My Ride.
