Once in awhile I think about my fun car... but I haven't driven it in 6 months since I moved to this wretched state. Couldn't affoard to store it in Michigan, so I left it in Ohio, where it was half the cost for a storage unit.

I spin wrenches on old Ford trucks (67-72) and old tractors, pre-1960. Working on a '58 Oliver Super99 right now and this weekend, I'll hopefully be bringing my '64 Lincoln Continental home.

I'd sell it if I knew I'd get what I have in it... but it's all lopsided right now... the thing handles like it's on rails after I "did" the entire suspension, and the transmission couldn't be any better. Built 100 miles ago, cost me $2300 plus torque converter, but I haven't upgraded the turbo yet, so it still runs high 12's.

It's my favorite toy I own, but the storage fees are eating me alive, and I don't have anywhere to keep it. I think I'm going to figure something out this winter, where to keep it.

I run a Cheap Trick radio station - literally an extension of my "prior" live.

I love ROCK & ROLL and promote local/regional/unsigned bands in my free time!
