to me there is no bigger thrill in the world then taking a classic car to pick up another one, back in June my cousin and I took my 77 250 miles one way to pick up his 77 Firebird he purchased. you should have seen the looks we got on the way back! ive only taken a new car to buy an old one once, that a year when I picked up my vette, it was in pcolia and dident want to hurt the engine if something was wrong with it, so I took my truck and trailer.

My daughter is VERY pregnant .........
and I'll be grounded through the middle of October from making out of state trips....
the baby has been trying to pop out/daughter's being "watched"!
Well we tried!
(Hope my wife doesn't read this.....LOL)
