Painless has a really neat sleeving material that they advertise on their website. It’s super expensive to buy from them though. So you can see what it looks like and then go search McMaster Carr. They carry the same product at a fraction of the cost.

Congratulations on the new adventure. You could make it a goal to drive the Mustang into the new garage/shop under its own power!! Took me 30 years to accomplish it.

Mufflers??? I see something that resembles a wide spot in the pipe!!! 

The Brother-in-law sent me a message about the event. Sounds like it will be a wild time..... not sure I want a wild time. They are advertising 1500 cars for the car show at Moody Gardens. There is one way in and out so traffic could be stacked up

I can be up for a mini bash if timing works out. Need to do a few things to the car before then!!! Always something, right??. 

Happy New Year to all.

Chris, I catching up on the forum topics today and just finding this. I am so sorry for your terrible loss. You are in our thoughts and prayers. It was a pleasure to meet you both at the Bash. 

I'm a sucker for most car show and enjoyed watching Fast and Loud with Aaron.... I could live without the drama though. That Boss 9 was a great looking car in really good shape. Richard would be money ahead to flip it vs restoration to as new or as raced condition. It did give me some incentive to get mine going as well. 

There's a guy restoring Dodges up north and I watched some of his stuff. Didn't take long for the way his attitude came across for me to stop. He wasn't worth it to see the beautiful cars in a finished state. 

Are classic car prices inflated, probable so. I can't blame it all on Rawlins. Does anyone remember the Autotrader days? There would be advertisers that had Shelby's listed with a sold tag across them and a sale price that seemed high for the time. That was "good" advertising. Let it run for a few months and everyone starts to believe it's real prices. 

I started watching Dennis Collins Coffee Walk. He's buying and selling, but rarely talks dollars on the camera. It's amazing how many of those cars are being liquidated by surviving spouse or kids.  

Thankful for the good times being so good and the bad times not being any worse. Yall have a happy Thanksgiving and don’t eat too much!!!

Bump to top

Hate to hear yall are gonna miss. Prayers for the healing to continue.

Way to go Ed. It’s needed for long trips.

I’m bought a cruise control set up right before the Michigan bash. Didn’t have time to get it installed, then lost it in the 2 moves in 4 years!! I haven’t made time to install since I found it.

Thanks guys.

It’s OK to be confused….. you just gotta figure it out quicker than the other guy.
