Welcome to the site where the owners and members have had it with playing "nice" and being "inclusive" and "tolerant" of points of view that are destroying the fabric of what made this country great. The members here are sick and tired of politicians of all parties lying, deceiving, stealing, and pretending they are doing it all for the good of the country while selling out to special interests who have the set goal of destroying this country. We have had enough of career politicians who use their office only for personal gain, and who refuse to listen to the people who put them in office. The membership is no longer part of the silent majority who play nice and get along while getting screwed by anyone with a loud voice and an agenda. We will no longer allow anyone to piss down our back and tell us it's raining. And we like guns too.

Smile Mom's old car.

So my old 82nd Airborne bud Bill stops by to show me the finished ride. His Italian scrupulous mom paid $3,000 back in 1973 and she wasn't paying a dang penny more.
The car was passed through the family and finally put to pasture in one of the kids backyards. Bill asked and they gave him the car in pretty rough shape.
He has some friends in Conn. that do that vehicle restoration and 3 1/2 yrs. later here she be. Complete take down to the frame, nuts bolt interior engine rear end everything on the vehicle.
Engine is a 'Stoker' I think he called it? He said Tim yah don't want to know the cost of restoration $$ but I know I will never get my money back but he does not care. Hell it was Mom's old car.

Beautiful. Getting rid of all the rust I'm sure was a major job.

Nuts bolts frame wiring everything Fred stripped and gone over and replaced if needed. He told them take their time get it done right. Holy sheet 3/12 yrs later it was ready.
Time was not relevant so he told them to work on it as they pleased. It saved him a fortune. $$ The roof is and early slide back sun roof one of 2.900 on the road so he claims?

RTO yes Bill told me only around 3,000 or so came out with the sun roof. Like he said I spent the $$ more to keep mom's memory going than I can ever ever re-coup what I put in it.
If yah go to Disney World down here over Christmas Bill is one of the dozen or so Santa's at the Magic Kingdom each year. Few hours each day and they put him and the wife up in a nice hotel and all is included.
