howdy all,
i had a 65 galaxy 2dr hrdtp that i built from scratch. it had a 352 in it but i put a 360 out of a pickup in it. i drove that car for 5 years. i finally sold it to a guy that just wanted the body and not the motor or drive train. i think i got a 1000$ out of it. that was back in the 70's.

Greetings Fellow Texans!

Is it wrong to watch the Hurricane Irene coverage on TV and be... Envious?... of all the rain they are getting?

Tim,,, no it' snot wrong to watch Irene's wrath. kind of wish it'd come this way as we need the cooler air and rain ya know. from what I've seen/read,, it should be getting back to 'normal' here in a couple weeks. the southern wind from the gulf is keeping cooler air from coming this far south to us here in Texas. but at least I have cold a/c in the BII again. Got an old truck club meeting this eve so I changing oil/filter and doin PM(preventive maint.) on the BII. keep safe and

I sure hope we have some kind of fall weather around here. Seems like it's been either winter or summer past few years. I'm starting to get use to the hot weather though.
