I passed one sitting on the side of 321 south between Lincolnton and Gastonia facing me when I came under an overpass. I was in my 70 Chevy truck running about 72. I was looking straight at him as soon as I could see him. He threw both hands up like what are you doing? He didn't pull out though.:o

Let me title it as a farm vehicle in IL for you. Cheap insurance, no taxes, no inspections, no emissions!
