Well, mine don't drive on the ceiling, but..........
`56 210 wagon. Started life as a nine-passenger, but the third seat was removed before we bought the car. Have been building, tinkering and upgrading since 1996.

'88 Heritage, bought new, sold in 2015.
After riding for 45 years, crashing twice but no permanent damage to the bod, I gave it up even though I never thought I would. I have a new truck but it's not "cool," it just gets me from point A to point B no matter the weather.

That's a really cool bike man. After I saw the pic of the bike I read your text as the voice of Sam Elliot for some reason.

This is my '69 Mustang convertible.
I bought it in '98 from an old lady and it was a bone stock 302 2V. Since then it's been repainted back to the original Meadowlark Yellow from an Earl Schieb $299 faded silver paint job, gotten an Edelbrock Performer intake, a Road Demon 4V, a Comp Cams single profile 224 duration, .500 lift 351W cam, Keith Black pistons, Ford GT40P heads, Motorsport roller rockers, custom Tri-Y headers, a shift kit for the C4 automatic and the gears lowered to 3.55 to 1. I also added the dual racing style mirrors, the luggage rack and the chrome Ford Rallye Wheels. That last bit was all available as options in 1969, and that's how I would have ordered it (except as a GT optioned car with a 428 Cobra Jet and a 4 speed top loader tranny).

How about some mechanical data on that beauty. When I was about 19, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, me and my best friend built a '56 Bel Air window post coupe that was the same color as yours. That car started out as a three deuce manifold and carbs setup my buddy bought at a swap meet and evolved into a 327/365hp fuelie block powered beast. Because the car was so light, it was scary fast back in those days.

283 ci out of a `67 Chevy pickup - I think it's a whopping 175 hp. 700R4 trans, 3.36 rear gears, Griffin aluminum radiator & shroud, full Ciadella Interior, Dakota Digital instruments and front disc brakes.
Coming soon (I hope) - rack & pinion steering, rebuilt (15") steering wheel and a front smoothie bumper that fits better than this one.
