I think all women are born knowing how to give that look. My wife seems to have it mastered...

I live in the city on a .25 acre lot. I have 58 Massey Ferguson TO35 sitting in the driveway....LOL

Fantastic pics!! thanks so much for sharing those!

Ha-ha! I agree.... who wants 4-door cars? But there is one 2 door sedan. There was something on facebook i saw where they said some guy fixed them all up and painted them. But you could tell it was just photo-shopped.

But since the price of 2 door 55, 56, and 57 Chevy's have gone through the roof, I see the price of 4 doors in good shape bringing some money.

Likely have to put twice as much into them than what you'd get out of them in return, I have plans of restoring one of these if the deal goes through this spring after the snow is gone..

Abe, the F3 on the top is Meadow Green of course!!! From there you can calibrate your bionic eye to the spectrum represented on everything else in the picture.
Tom

p.s - I really, really like that picture of the truck carrier.
