Thanks Perry,
I can't wait to motor up to Whistler again, this time in "The English Patient" (it has after all, had a heart transplant). Walt |
Howdy Walt,
Do you know a guy that lived in Gig Harbor back in the late '80s that owned a '68 Shelby GT500? I lived in Bremerton and I talked to him several times about his car. Just thought I would ask. Paul |
M & M, I just saw you were trying to suck me in with the chevy in the ford conversation. I have finally seen the light, but I should reserve my comments for now as I owned a 1931 Ford Roadster street rod with a 350 chev in it in the not so distant past. I hope this will not tarnish your lofty thoughts of me. :LOL: :LOL: :LOL:
Jake |
Lofty thoughts??
Are we just a little full of ourselves?? |
Help the North
I am beginning to think that the "Bish ChevVirus" is spreading way to fast in the North!:D
I am setting up a defense at the Columbia River! :3DSMILE: |
Mike,
I'm pretty sure the Columbia starts in Canada, but we'll let you have the water anyway.:LOL: This is starting to sound like a HatFord and McChevy fued, I don't think anybody won? :JEKYLHYDE Perry. |
Okay Slabby, that thing has got to be here by now. What's the verdict? Gonna be done by...?
Rich |
Lofty thoughts?
Keith, I will overlook your comment for now. By the way, where in Gig Harbor did you say you lived? I think I will head over the bridge and do some traffic stops. :D
Your Buddy, Jake |
Jake, ol' Buddy,
I'm glad you still know how to make traffic stops. After a few years in the service of Pierce County I figured you spent most of your time "doing the Puyallup" for the extra check. I live down Hunt Street in Gig Harbor and drive a fast primer colored 289 like car with a Chev small block. Don't believe in them stop sign for rural towns. Just slows us down. Come get me, copper. :D :D :D |

Keith,
You are a trouble maker..... |
thanks, I resemble that remark
|
Let's see some pics Walt. We need to be sure it's not a phantom. Hopefully the car is worthly of those George Hamilton loafers!
|
Neal...
I bought the car specifically to better match the "George Hamilton's Personal Assistant's Loafers". Car is now undergoing a thorough mechanical checkup prior to being taken down to bare metal and painted. Pix will follow. Speaking of "phantoms"... does the term "GT-40" resonate? Walt |
Almost ready for paint. Should be on the road this spring. I look forward to another adventure. Cheers.

Walt, I'll try to keep this topic away from Crosley. He sneaks into my study from time to time and I catch him on the NW Cobra Club section, trolling for any mention of your name.:3DSMILE:
I actually put up the top today (a mini engineering project on the scale of the Brooklyn Bridge:LOL: ) and drove to work on a cool, 30 degree morning. I turned on the heater, closed the windows on the side curtains, and...it was still damned cold!:D Bob |
Bob...
must be the 'Texan' in you talking... we drove Crosley over an eastern Oregon mountain pass in the snow and felt warm as toast. I guess it's just a matter of how one defines the concept "cold". Good to hear from you. Walt |
Perhaps if I had dressed in something warmer than a sweater I would have been "toastier". It was a lot of fun--I've seen a hundred pictures of Cobras with the tops up in books, but "erecting" one added a new dimension to the hobby. It's fun driving along and looking out the side windows--they're kind of narrow and made me feel like I was peering out the gun slits in a WWI tank--
