edinmass Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Carl.......what game, New England is out of it.........football season is over! Besides, Randy has to get the jump seats hinges freed up so he can take a photo of the back sear area for everyone. As far as the tow truck comment........needs a bigger engine for any really heavy duty work. Guess he will have to just keep it as a driver. I expect to see him with it at the ACD reunion this August..........I have my hotel reservations already, and will have two cars there..............I’m gonna see if Randy likes to drag race...........usually all one has to do to win is be willing to blow the engine...........Randy....you ready?🤪 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 This has to be the best thread here in many months. Everyone posting is happy. Poking fun at and joking with everyone and being helpful. This is what these forums used to be like all the time. Congratulations on your success as an Auburn seeker. As keiser31 would say "more pictures please".

C Carl Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 EXTRA ! EXTRA ! NOW HEAR THIS : NEWSFLASH LEAKED FROM ED'S CAMP DOWN IN SOUTH FLORIDA !!!! ED WANGLED A HALF A DOZEN SEATS ON THE 50 YARD LINE. RANDY'S BUTT WILL BE IN ONE OF THEM, AND HALFTIME HAS BEEN CHANGED TO FEATURE THE AUBURN WITH ONE OF ED'S STUNT DRIVERS AT THE WHEEL !!!!! Carving donuts in the "turf" ? I just don't know how you do it, Ed, but thanks a billion for doing it ! Oh how I wish I still spent a couple of months of every Winter all over Florida. Base rock was up in Martin County, on the coast, easy walk to the Elliott Museum. "Them" were the days !!!!! - CC 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edinmass Posted February 2, 2020 Share Posted February 2, 2020 Carl.........I was at the Super Bowl a few years ago. Tickets are now insane. Last time I went, I paid 1800 for a ticket.........this week the nose bleed seats were 7400 and you couldn’t find two together for under 9k each. It’s not every mans game anymore. Tailgating in the lot is almost as much fun..........and not very expensive. Usually they have twice as many in the lots as inside. Some bring tv’s, hot tubs, and such.......quite a good time. This year, while the game is only a short drive from my place, I’m watching the game in the den. Carl, if you come on down sometime......I’ll give you a ride in something you will enjoy......Ed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auburnseeker Posted February 2, 2020 Author Share Posted February 2, 2020 Hey they are letting me like again. Must be my special day in more ways than one. That would be good though. Maybe I should make the full debut during the half time show slot. It might be better than what they have planned anyways. A bunch of old guys drooling over a tired 90 year old car. That might be a show in itself. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnseeker Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 I Don't know why but for some reason I like this body style even more than the speedster and definitely more than the cabriolet.

auburnseeker Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 I wasn't sold on the color (though beggars can't be choosers) and some different two toning will make a difference but the color is starting to grow on me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see an angle it doesn't look good at. Certain things belong in certain places........a lesson I learned many years ago early on in my collecting of all thing automotive. I would have enjoyed the car, but only used it one or two weeks a year. Randy will use it as it should be............every possible opportunity. The car went where it belongs.........I’ll find another one............. In the last two weeks I helped three people locate a pre war car and secure it. I enjoy helping others find the car they always wanted. Best part of the hobby.....helping others and making friend doing it.

auburnseeker Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 For me this is one of those cars that they just nailed the styling on. I don't think there is much you can do with the basic design to make it look any better. Proof positive that even in a not so good color it still looks great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auburnseeker Posted February 3, 2020 Author Share Posted February 3, 2020 I generally don't like alot of convertible sedans especially when you hit the later 30's but the low roof line and fairly short body with the tub being bobbed over the fenders gives it a much sportier look than alot of conventional convertible sedans. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
