Get ready for Sunday!

 

 

 

Great idea!

 

A flea had oiled up his little flea legs and his little flea
arms, had spread out his blanket, and was proceeding to soak up the Miami sun when who should stumble by on the beach but an old flea friend of his.

"Oscar, what happened to you?", asked the flea, because Oscar looked terrible, wrapped up in a blanket, his nose running, his eyes red, and his teeth chattering.

"I got a ride down here all the way from New York in some biker's mustache. I nearly froze my nuts off," wheezed Oscar.

"Let me give you a tip, old pal," said the first flea, spreading some more suntan oil on his shoulders. "You go to the stewardess lounge at the airport, see, and you get up on the toilet seat, and when an Air Florida stewardess comes in to take a leak, you hop on for a nice warm ride. Got it?"

So you can imagine the flea's surprise when, a month or so later, while stretched out all warm and comfortable on the beach, who should he see but Oscar - looking more chilled and miserable than before.

"Man, what happened, didn't you do like I said?" Asked the flea.

"Listen," said Oscar, "I did everything you said. I made it to the stewardess lounge and waited till a really cute one came in, and made a perfect landing and got so warm and cozy that I dozed right off."

"And so?" asked the first flea.

"And so the next thing I know, I'm on this guy's mustache again!"











Two guys grow-up together, but after college one moves to Georgia and the other to Texas. They agree to meet every ten years in Florida to play golf.

At age 32 they meet, finish their round of golf, and head for lunch.

"Where you wanna go?"

"Hooters."

"Why Hooters?"

"They have those servers with big *****, tight shorts, and gorgeous legs."

"You're on."

At age 42, they meet and play golf again. "Where you wanna go for lunch?"

"Hooters."

“Again? Why?"

"They have a cold beer, big screen TVs, and side action on the games."

"OK."

At age 52 they meet and play again.

"So where you wanna go for lunch?"

"Hooters.”

"Why?”

"The food is pretty good and there's plenty of parking."

"OK."

At age 62 they meet again.

After a round of golf, one says, "Where you wanna go?"

"Hooters."

"Why?"

"Wings are half price and the food isn't too spicy."

"Good choice"

At age 72 they meet again.

Once again, after a round of golf, one says, "Where shall we go for lunch?"

"Hooters."

"Why?"

“They have six handicapped parking spaces right by the door and they have senior discounts."

"Great choice."

At age 82 they meet and play again.

"Where should we go for lunch?"

"Hooters."

"Why?"

"Because we've never been there before."

"Okay, let’s give it a try."











Two French paratroopers were seconded to the SAS for special training. After the first day they met up in the bar. "Ah, Pierre ," asks one, "ow 'av you been doing?"

"Merde!" answers Pierre . "I 'av 'ad ze most terrible day. Terrible! At seex zis morning I was woken by zis beeg 'airy sergeant. 'E dragged me out of bed and onto ze parade ground."

"And zen what 'appened?" enquired his mate.

"I will tell you what 'appened! 'E made me climb urp zis seely leetle platform five ft off ze ground and zen 'e said "Jurmp!"

"And did you jurmp?" asks his mate.

"And zen what 'appened?" asks his mate.

"Zen 'e made me climb urp zis seely leetle platform ten feet off ze ground, and 'e said "Jermp."

"And did you jurmp?" asks his mate.

"I did not. I told 'im - 'I am a French paratrooper. I do not jurmp ten feet. Eet is beneath my dignity'."

"What 'appened zen?" asks his mate.

"Zen 'e made me clim urp zis rickety platform un'undred feet above ze parade ground. 'E undid 'is trousers, took out zis enormous weely, and 'e said 'If you do not jurmp, I am going to steek zis right urp your aarze!"

"Sacre Bleu, mon ami" says his mate. "And did you jurmp?"

"A leetle, at ze beginning."

 

A young boy had just gotten his driving permit.

He asked his father, who was a minister, if they could discuss his use of the car.

His father said to him, "I'll make a deal with you. You bring your grades up, study your Bible a little, and get your hair cut, then we will talk about it."

A month later the boy came back and again asked his father if they could discuss his use of the car.

His father said, "Son, I'm real proud of you. You have brought your grades up, you've studied your Bible diligently, but you didn't get hair cut!"

The young man waited a moment and replied, "You know Dad, I've been thinking about that. You know Samson had long hair, Moses had long hair, Noah had long hair, and even Jesus had long hair."

His father replied, "Yes son, and they walked everywhere they went!"



A police officer pulls over an elderly female for speeding while driving her husband to a doctors appointment.

The officer approaches the vehicle and attempts to explain that he stopped her for speeding.

She looks at her husband and asks, "What did he say?"

The husband replies, "He said he stopped you for speeding."

The officer asked the elderly female for her driver's license and she turned and asked her husband, "What did he say?

The husband replies, "he wants to see your driver's license."

The women hands the officer her license and he sees that she is from his old home town.

The officer tells the couple that he remembered the town because he had the worst sexual experience of his life there.

The women looks at her husband and asked, "What did he say?"

The husband replies, "He says he knows you."



There was this man who walked into a bar and says to the bartender 10 shots of whiskey.

The bartender asks, "What's the matter?"

The man says, "I found out my brother is gay and marrying my best friend."

The next day the same man comes in and orders 12 shots of whiskey.

The bartenders asks, "What's wrong this time?"

The man says, "I found out that my son is gay."

The next day the same man comes in the bar and orders 15 shots of whiskey.

Then the bartender asks, "Doesn't anyone in your family like women?"

The man looks up and says, "Apparently my wife does."

A Heartwarming Story … women. This letter was sent to the Lions Bay School Principal's office in West Vancouver after the school had sponsored a luncheon for seniors. An elderly lady received a new radio at the lunch as a door raffle prize and was writing to say thank you. This story is a credit to all humankind. Forward this to anyone you know who might need a lift today.


Dear Lions Bay School,


God bless you for the beautiful radio I won at your recent Senior Citizens luncheon. I am 87 years old and live at the West Vancouver Home for the Aged. All of my family has passed away, so I am all alone.


I want to thank you for the kindness you have shown to a forgotten old lady. My roommate is 95 and has always had her own radio; but, she would never let me listen to it. She said it belonged to her long dead husband, and understandably, wanted to keep it safe.

The other day her radio fell off the nightstand and broke into a dozen pieces. It was awful and she was in tears. She asked if she could listen to mine, and I was overjoyed that I could tell her to **** off.


Thank you for that wonderful opportunity.

Sincerely,
Edna

 

This somewhat blurry photograph shown... taken with a very primitive papyrus camera was recently unearthed from the approximate year 72 A.D. and shows a scene the "Emperor Vespasian Games" celebrating the Grand Opening of the (then new) Roman Colosseum ...and depicts the first known image of an Alfa Romeo single-seat four horsepower open chariot roadster racing in competition.
The driver appears to be a man with an uncanny resemblance to Marcus Aurelius Andretti, whose descendant Mario is still involved in circle track racing.
The chariot roadster features 16 leg crankshaft, is shoed with a forged U-shaped hoof traction system and features a single wooden seat cushion.
Recently excavated by a team of Italian archeologists at the ancient historical site of Herculaneum, the camera and photo was probably owned by a wealthy owner of a very early ZF steering parts factory… featuring all wood and hemp components.
This rare historical find gives credence to the new Stellantis advertising slogan "Alfa Romeo- Racing Since 72 A.D."

 

This rare historical find gives credence to "Cheating is Racing Since 72 A.D."

Older Men Scam

Women often receive warnings about protecting themselves at the mall and in dark parking lots, etc. This is the first warning I have seen for men. I wanted to pass it on in case you haven't heard about it. A 'heads up' for those men who may be regular customers at Lowe's, Home Depot, Costco, or even Wal-Mart

This one caught me totally by surprise. Over the last month I became a victim of a clever scam while out shopping. Simply going out to get supplies has turned out to be quite traumatic. Don't be naive enough to think it couldn't happen to you or your friends.

Here's how the scam works;Two very beautiful, college-age girls will come over to your car or truck as you are packing your purchases into your vehicle. They both start wiping your windshield with a rag and Windex, with their breasts almost falling out of their skimpy T-shirts. (It's impossible not to look). When you thank them and offer them a tip, they say 'No' but instead ask for a ride to McDonald's.

You agree and they climb into the vehicle. On the way, they start undressing. Then one of them starts crawling all over you, while the other one steals your wallet.

I had my wallet stolen February 4th, 9th, 10th, twice on the 15th, again on the 17th, 20th, 24th, and the 28th. Also March 1st, 2nd, 8th, twice on the 9th &10th, and very likely again tomorrow and Wednesday.

So tell your friends to be careful. What a horrible way to take

advantage of us older men. Warn your friends to be vigilant.

Wal-Mart has wallets on sale for $2.99 each. I found even cheaper ones for $.99 at the Dollar Tree and bought them out in three of their stores.

Also, you never get to eat at McDonald's. I've already lost 11 pounds just running back and forth from Lowe’s to Home Depot, to Wal-Mart.

So please, send this on to all the older men that you know and warn them to be on the lookout for this scam. (The best times are just before lunch and around 4:30 in the afternoon.)

Thanks again to Sammy K........

I can't help but wonder where the other end of the "exhaust" pipe is attached.

 

Some things are better off unseen....or unknown!

 

 

The thread it reminded me of.... Here

Old Ebay listing....

53-62 Corvette NOS Original Spare Tire Compressed Air

53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 NCRS Bloomington

$1,000.00 Reserve!!!! NOS "used once", original air from a 1962 spare tire. I consider this NOS (New Old Stock) because I bought a car from the original owner who told me he never had the spare tire out of the trunk. I needed the rim and took it to my local tire shop where they carefully removed the air from this spare, contained it in a compressed air tank for safe keeping. It's all ready for you to use to fill up one tire, or distribute it between 5 tires on you car, mixing it up with a little "new" air from your surroundings. This air is specifically made for a 62, but you can use it in earlier years, but technically would not be old enough. It may be hard for the judges to discover it unless they let some air out when you're not looking. It may be best to super glue your valve caps to prevent them from checking.Pictured is the spare tire that the air was removed from. This is a non DOT tire. If you're a top rate restoration shop with customers with open checkbooks, here's your chance! Just tell them it's being judged now, and that they need this air to be 100% NCRS and Bloomington correct. Go for it, they'll believe you! I figured that if folks can get hundreds of dollars for correct air cleaner wing nuts, oil drain plugs, used oil filters, correctly marked original bolts, etc, then it's time for me to "cash" in too. This is probably the ONLY original 1962 air in the world! How many times have you changed your air in the past without realizing how much people would pay in the future! Start saving that tire air now for future investment!

I have set my reserve accordingly.

If you want only the best and most accurate tire air for your restoration, here it is! Unfortunately they never dated air at the Assembly Plant, so this is sold as-is with no warranty, expressed or implied. Use this air at your own risk, no liabilities allowed or included.

Also please see my other auction for 1963 Corvette spare tire air recently acquired from a low mileage barn car I found. The 4 tires were flat but the spare was full!

I have decided to make this a private auction to protect your identities. Serious bidders only please. Because most shipping companies will not ship compressed gases this item is for local pickup only, sorry. Bank Check, Money Order or cash only. Bid away!!! Thanks for looking!!! And have a nice day!!

Disclaimer: :-) :-) :-)


On Dec-22-07 at 03:19:30 PST, seller added the following information:Sorry for any confusion. The Tire in the picture is NOT included. I will gladly retract any bids if you have bid thinking the tire for sale. Only the "AIR" from the tire is included in this auction. Thanks for the overwhelming interest in my auction and for the generous bids so early in the listing. Thanks!

On Dec-23-07 at 17:50:06 PST, seller added the following information:It's the second night before Christmas, and all through the house.......Oh, Sorry got carried away......

So the Bid just hit my Reserve, and I'm wondering why I didn't make it higher.:-) How foolish of me! Anyways, since the reserve has been met, and we've all had a good time, I think it's time to call it quits. I will be ending the auction by 11PM EST this evening. Surprisingly I'm really amazed the plug wasn't pulled on me sooner. I think the Ebay folks at the head office have been getting a good chuckle too? It is Christmas after all. I have no plans tonight, and was planning to peruse through my searches looking for old car parts.....at REASONABLE PRICES! Yea, Right! I'll keep my eyes on my auction and ready to answer any more of those silly questions with my silly answers. You know, this started out as a way to send a message. The message has been received by over 1350 people! That's a pretty good hit rate I'd say for only 2 1/2 days. A few have taken the humor in my advertisement and ran with it, some have not. For those that have, thanks for listening and taking part in this to help my point and have a good time. You all were great! (Except the one guy that called me a moron that thought it was real! I couldn't believe it!).

So I just wanted to make a point. I think I have. Sure I can't do anything about the insanity of prices in our great hobby, but maybe we should all take another look at why we're in the hobby in the first place. Some are in it just for the money. I'm in it to have fun! All The Best & Merry Christmas!!!!! richmz


On Dec-23-07 at 20:05:57 PST, seller added the following information:A terrible thing just happened. I was carrying a sledge hammer to put it on the shelf after trying to fix the starter on my old car, and guess what? I dropped the hammer by accident, hit the front bumper on my car(a Huge dent!), and careened off of it, landing on(guess what), the 1962 NOS Air Tank! It knocked the valve off the storage tank, and 28 psi of my NOS air came wissing out into the open. Puffff!!! Gone!!! Sorry, but I'm going to have to end the auction. Oh well!!!

Merry Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Here are the Q&A's
Read from bottom to top for correct date sequence.

Q: I saw another ebay ad where someone was selling compressed air with a "buy it now - $9.00" and an msn contact address in the item description. The ad had copied your picture and description and must have used a stolen ebay address, because the listing has since been deleted by ebay. I just wanted to let you know so that you would be careful - there are scammers out there copying ads for rare nos parts like yours. Dec-23-07
A: Ok....I'm Back. It's Sunday night 12/23/2007 8:09PM. I just noticed my reserve has been met, phew! I was sweating it out. I'm gonna have a Very Merry this year!! Here we go............to answer your question. I saw that too. The Buy-It-Now was actually $900.00, not $9.00. Some might say it was a good deal.......Bye For Now!!!

Q: Dear Sir, I'm very interested in your limited quantity NOS air.As I am restoring a one of one 62 corvette very rare optioned car 4 cyl with a 63 protoyype pontiac transaxle. After completion this car along with the purchase of your "air" will be offered at the "B.J." auction with a very hi resesrve set hoping to attract a very knowledgable person with a passion for the ultra rare . I'd like to consimate this deal on the condition that you may have some NOS 1962 voltage available. I'd be more than happy to purchase both items then split all profits made from the ultra rare totally NOS 62. Thank you Mr. S.W.Indle Dec-22-07
A: OMG I don't know if I can take 9 more days of this!!! Ok, here goes........ Dear Mr Indle(yes I know, I saw his initials), it just so happens I actually do have some 62 volts on my shelves. I'll have to dig them out. I'm pretty sure I have a box of 6, and a box of 12(oh this is getting stupid isn't it). I'll clean 'em up and send you a few pictures. Thanks for Your Interest, & Happy Holidays!!! richmz(your super seller!!!!)

Q: having a corvette restoation shop. I fully understand your ad. I though of it many times but one question it is early or late air ? date that is, I don't want to put late air in an early car ! The book should be call Corvettes "Their nuts and there bolts" get It! Dec-22-07
A: See everbody, I told you the shops would get involved......Ok shop owner, tell me your serial number. I have a special super duper software program that'll tell me if this will work for you......"Their nuts and there bolts" get It!"....Riiiight, "GOT IT". ha,ha,ha. did everbody get it! Oh this guy is so funny.... Happy Holidays whoever you are!

Q: hi, if i am the high bidder for this air, can you please make sure you ship it on a low humidity day, because i do not want my nos air to expand,thus causing me to spend extra on shipping. and could you please specify your handling charge? Dec-22-07
A: Didn't you see where I'm from! Are you kidding? Today it was 78 degrees with a relative humidity of 83%! As all my auctions are, there is NEVER, I said NEVER, a handling charge. Maybe I should do what other sellers do, just specify "Flat Rate Shipping", and lookup the UPS cost....and tripple it!!!! This way the buyer never knows how much it really costs cuz UPS never puts it on the label! "Ha Ha...Ha Ha, I got more than you biiiid for it... Ha Ha, Ha Ha"!!!!

Q: Excuse my barging in, but I have just completed a research project on local weather patterns in and around St. Louis during the time period this air was apparently installed in the tire. Believe it or not, my study concludes that there was a freak series of atmospheric inversions during this time period where massive amounts of air descended directly from the stratosphere to the corners of Natural Bridge and Union in St. Louis. The relevance of this comment is that the air itself did not originate within St. Louis, Missouri, or even the USA- and most likely entered the country illegally. Had the plant workers been made aware of this fact, I'm sure they would have halted production until such time as correct and genuine air became available once again. I implore you to do the right thing and take this opportunity to set the air free. This simple act may not solve global warming instantly, but according to Algore, we all have to do our part. Thanks for your cooperation. MW Dec-22-07
A: Ok, I'm back from Holiday Shopping. IT'S A ZOO OUT THERE! ..........Hey wait a minute. This is my auction so I'LL DO the BOOK WRITING here! Your 42,378 word question is killing too many brain cells, let's see, I think I understand now. Sorry, can't release the air, I must continue the auction as I already have bids, wow 57 bids! I wonder if this made the hot list on the home page.......All the Best!!

Q: Dear sir; I live on Fanning Island that is 1100 miles south from HI. 3600 from Australia, 4000 miles from South america, in other words we are out in the middle of no where. We have no electricity, 1 auto, and about 6 motor scooters on the island. My problem is my scooter has a flat tire and I know your air will work if I can just get it here. Norwegin cruise lines comes in here about every 2 weeks with there passengers and I was wandering before I bid if there is a chance you were going to take a cruise to the South Pacific? PS My PC works on a sun dial that's why I could contact you. need air here Rosco Dec-22-07
A: Hmmmmm, Fanning Island lies about 228 nautical miles north of the equator. Rosco, I'm actually not sure if this air would work so close to the equator.

Q: Do you have any "gap" for sale? I need 8 units of .035 gap for my '59 spark plugs. It has to be factory original and pass judging, none of this metric offshore repro crap. Thanks. Dec-22-07 A: Sorry I ran out of those long ago. You may want to try the Chevy Passenger Car guys because my documentation tells me they may be the same. Thanks for asking!!!

Q: How much to ship the air only, no tank? Would that go airmail, in an air tight envelope? Dec-22-07
A: If the wind is right, it might work. Good luck Bidding! THanks!!!

Q: Hey Rich, What about the container that the NOS air is residing in? I sure would like to have a vintage NOS air tank to install my NOS air other wise it might be contaminated. I know you had it carbon dated, but is it really pure air with no mixture of any foreign substance? And does that air tank have a vintage DOT stamp so I can be sure it will hold the pressure back to my car? And what is that date, may I ask if it has one? I only want the best for my beauty! Dec-22-07
A: It might have a few traces of R12 because I used a converted container that was made into a 125psi rated air tank. I'm pretty sure I got it all out, but it still weighs about 18 lbs, I'm really not sure why???? richmz....ps, there are many dots on the tank, but no dates I can see. I hope that's ok. Thanks for your interest and Happy Holidays!

Q: Was the tire on a base model engined Corvette, or a fuel injected equipped? I need air from a fuel injected Corvette tire, according to my Restoration shop. My shop said they could find the air available next spring at Barrett-Jackson. Thanks. Dec-22-07
A: Sorry, carbureted base engine, so you'll have to create a ebay "search" sending you annoying emails every day with useless, totally irrelavent items for sale, peruse through it anxiously hoping to find what you're looking for. YOur Restoration Shop knows best. They are there to help you get the dream car you always wanted, no matter what the cost, right. Don't forget to ask them if they will be using NOS windshield washer fluid. That may be a tough one. I hear they're reproducing it but the judges can tell the difference as it's a different texture......... BJ???? Expect to pay BIG BUCKS for anything sold at BJ! I was at WPB last year and toy cars being sold by the vendors were selling for more than my new Chevy pickup! All The Best!!!!

Q: One more question since I'm the high bidder. When I was in the 5 th grade I was in a spelling bee and I won because of the word EQUALIZATION. Well I just went to bed and I was laying there thing about this whole sanaro when the word EQUALIZATION came to me, MY question is how will I get the right amont of air in my tire when it will equalize in the container you have the air stored in. I.m really troubled and can't sleep. Please answer quickly. signed troubled Dec-22-07
A: Dear "troubled". I couldn't sleep either. It's about 4"30 AM here on the east coast of the US. I'm so excited I'm going to sell my NOS air I just woke up from a Santa Claus nightmare that scared the bejeses out of me. Sorry I missed your question before going to sleep. Here it is......You will have to use another amount of compressed air in another tank, hosed up in series with the tank that this air is in, to push the 1962 NOS air into the tire to be installed into. Because the NOS air will be connected last, you won't EQUALIZE it. See, won't that be easy. I'm glad you won the spelling bee, however you must have flunked science class. Sorry you lost sleep over it. Thanks for BIDDING on my 1962 NOS AIR!!!! Have a Happy!!!!

Q: What is the date code on the air? I want to make sure it is matches my build date. Will the relative humidity match my cars build date? Can't be too careful with details like this! Dec-21-07
A: I had it carbon date tested earlier today and just got the results via email. It appears to be in the range of JANUARY 1st, 1962 to DECEMBER 31 1962. DOES THAT ANWSER YOUR QUESTION!....I have no clue what the date is! I told you they didn't factory date this stuff. sorry......i've had so many questions, i'm tired, and i'm going to bed. yawn.....keep bidding..... I may make a fortune on this after all!:-)ps Santa is only a few days away!

Q: greetings from down under. The orange part in the picture, is that a timing chain cover, and if it is would it be forsale. cheers cj Dec-21-07
A: Hello cj fro "Down Under"! It's summer there isn't it? Sorry, my only timing cover is already attached to my engine and I really need it. Actually, what you see in the backround is my orange extension cord hanging from my golf club bag, but if you really need it I'll sell it to you. Happy Holidays to everyone "Down Under". All the Best!!!

Q: Hi; I'm not really interested in the tire, do you have a BUY it NOW price just for the air. Please reply. js Dec-21-07
A: Hello js, Sorry, there is a big misunderstanding. I may have to stop the auction. I did not specifically state in the listing that THE TIRE IS NOT INCLUDED! The make it clearer.......THE TIRE IS NOT INCLUDED! This auction is just for the air that was removed from it. Sorry, no Buy It Now. I will let the auction go to the end, I think. Thanks!!!

Q: If you raise the reservve to $10,000, I'll hit thwe buy it now button!!! Dec-21-07
A: I'm sorry, there is no Buy-It-Now. I'm thinnnnnking of a number. If I get it I'll be happy. I listed as a 10 day auction with no BIN price so everyone can wait over a week, feverishly anticipating they will win. But maybe they'll forget about it because 10 day auctions historically have proven to be worthless. I may do a BIN at day 6.75. Thanks for looking!!!!

Q: Hi, could you put this air into a scuba tank. I want to go Mako Shark hunting. Dec-21-07
A: I wouldn't do that as Scuba gear is regulated by the Federal Underwater Reasearch Advisory Association of Oceanographic Electoral Observatoriums of the United States of America. As stated in the listing liabilities are not included.(no batteries either)....Thanks for your interest!!!!

Q: Do you think this air would pass Flight judging on a 66 Corvette? Dec-21-07
A: ....as I said.....only if you super glue your valvestem caps closed......Thanks!!!

Q: I have an original 1962 air hose that someone accidentally blew the air out of, will your air fit?? This is exactly what I was looking for to complete my restoration!! Also, did this air come from a non-smoking vehicle??? My car is allergic to smoke. Dec-21-07
A: Yes, to your 1st question....No, to your 2nd question, as I found Pall Mall butts in the ashtray, but this air came from outside the car, not the inside! Thanks for looking!!!

Q: What is the temperature of the air? Will it be shipped compressed? Dec-21-07
A: Good questions. It's ambient, stored in a temperature controlled environment. Yes it is compressed, 28 psi. When it's picked up(Local pickup only! Read the bloody listing!), it will be out of my control so you will have to keep it at the correct temperature or the pressure may be reduced if traveling to cold country. Happy Holidays, and thank you sooooooo much for your interest.

Q: Would it be possible to obtain a small sample of this air for chemical analysis. I would like to confirm that it is really from 1962 and not NOS 1962 or an after market air product. Dec-21-07
A: Risk loosing the entire lot? No, find someone else's original air to tamper with, but thanks for your interest.

Q: How about Patina??? LOL Great auction!!! Happy Holidays!!!!!!! Dec-21-07
A: Patina........it is slightly yellowed, but after a good cleaning in mild detergent I'm certain it will be fine. It does however have a slightly stale aroma, but will NOT be noticed once installed. Thanks for Looking!!!

Q: Would you consider a trade? I have five quarts of original, factory installed motor oil removed from a 1967 L71 Corvette 427. Only has 5,000 miles on this truly rare motor oil. Perfect for that 1967 427 nut and bolt restoration. A top restoration shop could double their money. I would take your original tire air, and $500, in trade for my original '67 427 used oil. Thanks for your consideration. LOL Dec-21-07
A: Hmmmmmm, L71 3deuces 435 HP. Sorry, that oil has been overstressed. No deal. You can't fool me! Thanks for your interest.

Q: WHAT A JACKASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1962 AIR HUH? MORON! Dec-21-07
A: Hmmmmmm........sometimes a reply needs no comment. I think I'll pass on this one. No, on second thought, looks like I've woken up some interest. Just to clarify.....maybe you didn't see the bottom of the desription. It's a :-). All the Best, Happy Holidays.....richmz

Q: LOL Sad but true, you will probably get some one to bid on this, can't stop laughing Terry Dec-21-07
A: I should have set my reserve HIGHER....Thanks for looking and Happy Holidays....richmz
