That's pretty nice Hoe. I don't think there is a single road in Nebraska that smooth. (Seriously!)

Oh yea man! Don't think I haven't thought about it. But it would have to be one of these. I'm just not into anything made in the last 20 years.

Man I miss that cat................ Hey as long as I'm posting some pictures that I scanned, here is my first car that some of you might remember. Why do we get rid of the things we love? Maybe that's why I'm hanging onto my wife so tight, I know what she's worth.

I just noticed something. Look at that photo of my 71 Firebird. Look closely and you can see a car tipped up on it's side in the background. That's a 1964 and a half Mustang. It was from California, still had the plates on it. We got it for parts, can you imagine what that thing would be worth now? What were we thinking. I think that picture was from 1982.[&:]
