Well Tim, my 4 year old son picked your 32 as his favorite and had to have his picture taken with it. He has some good taste

That's because he didn't have any "red" accents.

What part of Norway is that johnson guy claiming to be ancestered from anyway?

I was so embarassed cause I guesss" I got me one of them thar rat rods". Man, I dont know how many times I heard that this weekend... I even heard a kid telling his buddies," Yeah, thats what their doin now, Buying new bodies and ,makin em look old. I almost said something ,...I just laughed and figured it doesnt pay any way. The highlite of my weekend was Sunday morning in front of the TP motel and resort, when a 75 year old guy comes over and starts telling me "thats the way we use to build jitneys back in the day", He goes on to tell me he was a welder from Michigan and remembers many T's and A's like mine with the flatty and all. He was all over this thing, talked my leg off...I noticed all weekend its the old guys that really check it out. Maybe its the gray hair thing, I dunno. Good to see the gang again, and thanks Eyeball for the load of goodies and congrats on the" Ebens deuce" , I'd say its a keeper.I gotta go get some after burn gel now , later Weed

Kat, too bad you guys couldnâ€™t have been with us to the reliability run in the Black Hills, we put on 500 miles without the roof.

I hear the same thing all the time and believe me, a person gets tired of hearing it after awhile. I think it was Mr. Overspray that said: "I don't really give a f*$k what people think, I built it, I drive it, and it is mine." I have to agree though, the old timers will sit and talk to you for days about the 19 so and so jalopy that they had when they were a kid. I think their stories make everything all better!
