jobberone, I neglected to say in my post above that the car had a frame off restoration that was finished about 8 years ago. However several things were not done very well, such as the front windows rattle, the sun visors won't stay up, etc. Small things like that that I will be working on myself. I kept the car looking original on the outside and the interior, but put a rebuilt 350 engine, 350 trans, front disc brakes, and power steering on it. The suspension is stock. I kept the original radio in the dash and mounted a stereo in the glove box with a 6 disc CD changer in the trunk. Here's a pic of the topless gold digger with me and my granddaughter:

Love the car and the color, Leon. Cute kid.

Morning Pops and all. Everyone have a great day.

Morning Pops. Morning to all the regulars. I don't think you know how comforting it is to me to be able to come here in the mornings and just say hello to everybody. I don't even know if I can explain it fully. It just makes me feel good to know that there are good people in this thread I guess.

BTW, a very good morning to all who may stop this way as well.

Have a great day everybody.

Good morning back to you and to everybody here. ABQ,I've been venturing into the Fan (grumpy) Zone and reading the frustration that seems to fester there and have come to the conclusion that maturity is a precious commodity. Just as rare is respect, which is one of the reasons I come to this thread. Pops was our mentor in that regard and I'd like to think that when people visit here, they view this particular thread as an oasis in tough times. Folks here seem to believe that the rules in place make for a better forum

After seeing the weird results from the weekend and the absolute meltdown with the Chargers, I don't feel bad about my team. I listened to Sirius/XM this morning and the Charger's fans were angry as all get-out. I do remember the early days of the Cowboys and the "can't win the big games" label that Tom Landry's teams had placed on them. We were pretty spoiled for a long time and peole are pining for those glory days.

Maybe I'm just hyper-sensitive about the bullying/suicide episode near my old stomping gounds near Vancouver, but I'd like to think that we would temper our passion for our team with some respect for those who differ from our opinions. Maybe that's why coming here and seeing the high regard for each other is just plain reassuring.

BTW, Leon, it's time for an updated picture of your grandaughter with the car. For those of us that don't own such classy wheels or have grandchildren, it's nice that you share. Don't worry about the legs. Bob's just jealous.

Bob, just to let you know, the gate's open.

Have a great day folks and have a cold one on me. (After supper, of course)

Good Morning Pops, regulars and all who may pop in. It's another day in paradise. Hope everyone has a great day. Remember to leave the day better than you found it, make one new acquaintance or friend, have some fun, and hug your loved ones.

Morning Pop's,Leon,Job,Sarge,Phrozen and all. Phrozen,I like your take on this thread. It's one where I don't think I'll ever see someone who is on my "ignore" list. Funny, opened a thread this morning and for the first time ever, couldn't read a thing about it because the op and all responders were on my "list". Didn't need to read it anyway.

**ABQCOWBOY** · 10-17-2012

Morning Pops. Morning fellas and Kristie. Morning to anybody who may stop in to check things out.

Ologan, your post reminds me of a scene from one of my very favorite movies. About 3:40 in.

Probably my favorite John Wayne movie.

Everybody, Have A Great Day!

Good afternoon, Cbz and to the best folks on the Web. It's good to see the ususals, but I must confess, I miss some of the former regulars. I suppose one must have a life outside this forum.

We're hard into Pipe Band season and I'm playing at a Senior's supper again tonight. I have to change at work, so my fellow employees (all female) will be giving me a hard time about my kilt. It's a majorly windy day here, so I'm a bit worried about it as well.

Here's hoping you guys are having a great day.

For those of you who may not have had the good fortune of ever seeing Phil play, here is a clip of him playing the bags.
