Thanks fellas I am having a great time with it .

The newest thing is the five new tires that I just bought for it .
A fellow member from my Model A club has been helping me mount the new tires .
You cant even go anywhere and have it done because cars today are all tubeless and my car has inner tubes plus you need the flat tire irons to break the bead on the tires to get them off and to mount the new tire.

Love that photo FF! You and that car were made for each other!

Looked at this 3/4 ton 4 wheel drive 1986 Suburban today. Really nice, but the guy is asking way to much. Also, maybe I need a pick up, since I already have the Suburban

You want two suburbans now? That great Chevy car feeling got to you eh?

I spoke with him this evening. He sounds between 55-65 yo white guy, and has had it for 26 years. Current inspection. He says the dash and seat covers are shot, but who cares? He claims it runs like a champ. plus, who doesn't like a wife that gives the green light?
Being a Mustang man, I forgot how you can pick up older cool stuff for pennies on the dollar! I hate the fact that some cars are chosen as "collectible", and others are overlooked. I look at my Mustangs as drivers, not dollar signs.

You mean you can't recover a few measley seats?
I would be burning gas in it already if it were me. Those cost a ton more out here. They are collectable out here.
I look at my cars as cars as well. However, people alays trying to buy them from you tend to make you look at them as something you can sell if you don't want them.

True. It's a deal for sure, as long as it's not a rust bucket. If it runs like he says, and the rust is not terrible, I will be having me another bow tie.

I would think, the engine alone is worth that! Back in the 80s, we took one of those out of a truck and put it into a 60s Fairlane, with Nitrous. It would turn in low 12 second quarter miles at almost 5,000 feet. Then, the kid would drive it to school and work every day. He called it Martha! Oh, Martha, where are you now?

 

[AtomicEraTom]

My older brother has one new and has had those all his life pretty much he loves them!

My 1933 Buick model 90 7 passenger sedan. Original car, owned by the DuPont family. Has folding jump seats in the back, large straight 8 engine, runs perfect.

WOW, what a beautiful car. I love old Buicks and yours is breathtaking.

Nice Buicks Outlaw. I have a 1938 Buick Special.

Looked at this 1971 Mustang convertible this weekend. It was in rough shape, but all there. His description in the paper was poor, so I looked at it in hopes of maybe finding something worthwhile. Oh well.

 

[JD ARTHUR]

Here is my 38 Buick. It is all original, never been rebuilt or painted or anything except for tires.

View attachment 31478 Here is my 38 Buick. It is all original, never been rebuilt or painted or anything except for tires.

You gotta love cars with a split windshield and I cant get over the fact that the paint and everything is original that's almost as hard as finding the car itself !
Is that suicide doors I see on it ?

Mustangs are well known for rust problems but man, this thing looks like a really bad example. The guy probably wanted ten grand too.
