random stuff

i put the 5 names in a hat and drew brent as the bye runner .. and matched danny in his cutlas with claude in his mach one .. this race very well may have taken place as these guys were from the same era and each had these cars then .. not everybody knew everybody then but it seems i did .. they would most likeky have ran up on stateline road as that`s where claude lived and prefered to race .. then if the alabama law showed up they`d simply move to the tenn side of the road .. as usual claude would have his slicks mounted but even with that he could`nt keep up with the big 455 .. danny had the quickest 60 footer i ever saw .. there was a bridge at hump creek that we would do timed runs on and danny would go end to end or 0 to 60 in about 5 seconds .. i did see danny beat this 429 scj torino several times at miles creek .. danny would also beat claude i `m sure ..

frankie and al .. they probably raced a few times as they knew each other from high school .. i went to middle school in alabama and high school in tenn is why i knew guys from all over .. as stated frankies mustang was unbelievably fast and i dont know how " stock " it was but i do know al`s car was mostly stock except for headers and a bigger holley carb .. i rode in al`s car plenty and saw him race jeff enuff in jeffs demon to know that he was no match for frankie.. .now iv`e got to figure out who races brent . then the finals of the fastest car in my memory shootout ...

She's a cutie; you should find out where she's going to work and do a big burnout in front of her squad car. Maybe you'll get lucky and she'll frisk you!:LOL:

in a strange twist brent has decided not to compete any further .. ( he knows he has`nt a chance against either of the final two other cars ) .. i don`t remember if i told earlier but danny in a very high speed wreck demolished his cutlass hitting a tree sideways and splitting the car in half .. luckily he was drunk enuff to not hardly get a scratch on him .. frankie went insane in his mid 30`s and passed away some time later in a mental home.. but before all that they would meet at lickskillit ..and frankie would win easily .. frankies mustang was a white 69 428 mach 1..and is the reason i painted mine in the manner that i did .. my car is a tribute to his .. the fastest car in my memory ..and memory makes us old geezers think our stuff was fast ... our stuff is`nt near a quick as stuff is today .. we did`nt know about nitrous .. turbo`s ,, or superchargers then .. just cammed up ,, carbed up ,, headerd up big blocks .. . couldn`t keep up with a lot of 4 bangers today

hello americans .. this is Hoss Harvey .. you know what the news is .. in a minute ..the rest of the story ... you know there is that race in indiana coming up soon .. did you know there is another reason it carries the name it has .. about 300 years ago a small tribe of indians lived in what was then mid america .. they subsided mostly on what they could gather from nature .. and that was largely apples .. sadly one particularly late frost decimated the coming apple crop and around 500 indians starved to death .. later a plaque was erected on the site which became indiana .. the plaque read " here on lies the remains of the "indian-appless-500 "..then later someone built a race track around the site ...( if i`m lying i`m dying ) :HMMM:

i had been XXing out this post cause for a bit i could`nt add pics .. seems to be fixed again .. in lue of a real post i will add this bit of info .. in olden days of hawaii kings would have huge elaborate huts built for themselves .. mostly of grass .. king kamaka naka had a fondness for many thrones. he had one for every day of the week .. but because of lack of room he had to hoist some of the thrones up to near the roof of his hut ..during one particullarly rough storm one of the thrones fell from the ceiling landing on the king and killing him .. moral of this story "" people in grass houses should`nt stow thrones "".. or am i getting that confused with something about glass houses .. i hit my head at work yesterday

i hate the F word .. dont like to hear it .. dont like to associate with people who use it for every other word .. this post may be deemed innapproiate .. but even at that there is times that word is considered useable .. here is what some consider the top ten accepted uses .. although i would have added emilia airhardt saying "" where the F**k are we !!!
TOP TEN TIMES WHEN F WORD WAS APPROPRIATE
"What the f**k was that?" - Mayor of Hiroshima
"Where the f**k did all these Indians come from?" - General Custer
"But, it's so f**king simple!!" - Albert Einstein
"It does SO f**king look like her!" - Pablo Picasso
"How the f**k did you work that out?" - Pythagorus
"You want me to paint the whole f**king ceiling?" - Michaelangelo
"I suppose a little f**king rain would be too much to ask?" - Joan of Arc
"Who the f**k is going to know?" - Bill Clinton
"Scattered f**king showers...my ass." - Noah
And the number one example...
"I need this parade like I need a f**king hole in my head." - John F. Kennedy

Hi all, new to here and to "posting". If I could ask you guys a quick question?:HMMM:
My name is Butch, Sac area of CA. Always wanted to do a build. I've managed to get an old original 23 Ford w/ bucket, no tail gate, lots of bondo, thin alum. dash and fire wall. Rough to say the least but...question 1... being original and metal is it perferred to glass? question 2.. what would be a good price for it?
Thanks if any reply... Looking at some pics here really makes me want to keep it but time..blah blah..its gotta go.
Sincerly,
Butch

hmmm... looks nice. You should take more videos :D

that is true .. iv`e been promising for 4 years to get a video camera and have`nt done it yet .. this is a guy i sorta know .. this car is awesome .. 440 4 speed running hi 5`s in the 1/8th .. would have been a super video :)
http://i35.photobucket.com/albums/d1...g?t=1245597819

you could always get a digital camera that records videos :D

that's a nice looking challenger.

I saw a nice plum crazy cuda on my way to school once that this picture reminds me of, but it was more stock looking than that :D
