Ahhh, you are tempting him!

OMG!  @MrEarl  This is nuts!  Rethinking your dream?

[Beemon]

This is what I've been trying to do, big sway bar and 58 aluminum drums. Both are hard to come by these days

Thanks for the heads up Marty but me thinks I will pass. I looked at this car seriously a few years ago when it was for sale by the original owner. Not sure if it ended up selling then or not but was beyond my means at the time.

 

I also became friends with and spoke with the owner of this Buick when he had it on the market. He eventually sold it to an even better driver than he was.

 

 

 

 

The price was right on it but honestly, I doubt I would still be alive had I purchased. Had I made it through telling Rita, I would have probably ended up at the bottom of Deals Gap Mountain pass in the Smokies. I think my days for anything faster than my "'54 Muscle" Century are past.
