Thread: Hot Rod Goals for 2016.

Tweet

I'm 73 now. Started a new excercise program so I can get in and out of my hot rod more gracefully. (not cool on your hands and knees, lol.)

cool picture !!
an cool car!
you only look about 60 to me. Goodluck with the exercise.

I'm a '42 model myself and go to the gym every other day.

Yup exercise is good but I hate going to the gym so I play softball on 3 teams 40's 50's and 60 year olds, senior league 3 games a week is enough exercise for me. Lots of fun but I don't heal up as fast I once did.
Cool Rod Milner !

Good stuff man. love your hot rod, and you're looking good. Hope you have many more years to enjoy life

Thanks for the replies. I feel lucky that I experienced hot rodding back in the 60's and 70's. It's a wonder I'm still here after some of the stuff I did. About the only downside to living now is I can't go in and buy a new 428 Cobra-jet Mustang for $4088 like I did in 1969.
Y'all have a great year.

Friend of mine bought new '69 Mach 1 428 Cobra jet 4 speed, dark gray metallic, faster than a raped ape. He was a manager of a Quick Stop convenience type store back then and made a little more money than the most of us, the only consolation on the price was the dollar was worth a lot more then! If I remember correctly, it seems we were all complaining about the same things then as now (except the pains). LOL!

Boss 429 stang was only 5xxx$

Another class of 42 War Baby. 2016 will see me getting back to my project, soon, and maybe even get to drive it, unfinished, to some car shows in my new state of Idaho. Started out in my home state of Cal. then moved to Wa. for 39 years. Now Idaho is the last stop.
