Hey tomatohead, It’s Roger. Love the pictures, it’s coming along great. Thanks a lot! 😀
Thanks for telling me about the website; I joined the ODF membership… gonna get my cool t-shirt! 😆

Met another guy that says he knows you. He says 20-plus years ago, when he bought his ’69 fairlane with a 428, he stopped by and gave you a ride in it. He still has the car, and drives it. His name is Brett Holiday, ring any bells?

quote mikey:

Mater, them red rims have got to go. You need to find some “vintage ” Crager SS Mags for that sucker. …….Mikey 😆

Point taken! When I get some extra cash, maybe I’ll look for some Cragar SS Mags. But I really like this:

Those are some nice looking wheels. I think I’d go with them over the Crager S/S mags, they are sporty, and keep the original factory look at the same time. ……………..Mikey 😆

….. man always something, like I have been going through “some” old baseball cards that were my brothers , my mother had they at the Farm in Somers last 23 yrs since my brother passed and she gave them to me sinced they sold the place last year , …. so I have been sorting them out by year this last week 😮 man I sure know alot NOW about baseball players then I ever did ❗ cards start about 64 and go up to about 86 , and theres a few of 87 before he died, so I finelly just sorting them out by year ❗ next step is kept some of the “GOOD” ones for myself ( Mickey Mantle Willie Mays Hank Aaron )and then the rest will probably go up for sale on “ebay” ………….. Iam going to be listing them all winter I THINK 😀 😆
