[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 30-May-01 AT 06:54 PM (EST)[/font][p]Well, let's see. My 66 Mustang used to have "Blast From The Past" in black lettering on the back windshield. Strangely enough that ended up being my CB Handle not too long after putting that on the car.
My F-100 may end up having the same thing, but I haven't made up my mind quite yet.

Hotrod, its like the letter system they use over on the old mustang site SWMBO thats who it belongs to She Who Must Be Obeyed and as far as Shinoda I had some kid in a camaro come up to me in a parking lot the other day and ask is that a real BOSS? and what does shinoda mean? These kids nowadays don't know where the muscle cars even came from all they know is 5speed or 6 speed. LOL they would die if they saw Jakes camaro probably wouldn't know what it was.
Jake, CLEAN-EM OFF LOL or are you collecting them to see how many you get in a week? I want to collect seagulls after the weekend we had the interior of the BOSS detailed and I left the top down to air out the stuff he sprayed on the carpet to make it smell good he is like one of those little old ladies that you can smell two blocks away.... put so much on there it would take your breath away so I tried to air it out andf the seagulls took advantage of the top being down and I had to go scrub the seats again. On the same day I wrecked the 67. what a day I just wanted to go back to bed and get up again in a different week!!!. John

(Of course this was right after I had the new exhaust system installed, it was loud enough to set off car alarms just idling through a parking lot!)
This 14 year old kid walks out of the store, and asks if I've got a (it pains me to even say it) 350 under the hood!
I quickly told him that "christine" would never accept a heart transplant like that. And that the car was posessed enough already!
(by the way, he never did get either joke!) I did hear abuot 5 other people behnid me laughing though. Thankfully they were in the same car club as I am, and they were all laughing at him!
It just amazes me at the lack of intelligence out there. Especially when someone takes the "up to's" on the sides of the bolt on parts boxes he has, and says "I've got 400 horsepower in that little civic." The only things he aded, were a chip, a K&N, a set of pulleys, and a ram air setup! Boy oh Boy, was he surprised when everyone in the shop was ROFL at him!

I guess that was a bad day John. I have had that occasional dropping land inside the car. Yuck! One time I got hit in the head by a bird dropping while riding in the back seat. We were driving through Margate, coming from the beach. I was ten years old. Talk about being suprised.
As for the bugs, there everywhere! I clean the windsheild in the AM and it is covered again by the evening. It think that the bigger the truck you drive, the bigger the bug splat mark that you get. I was on the parkway in one of the boom trucks. I had a bug leave a splat mark the size of a golf ball. I thought it was going to break the glass. Of course, I had to try the old windsheild wiper trick. I knew better but I still had to do it. Don't try this at home. Lol. Jake.
Jake, how many times do we have to smear a bug in a three foot arc before we learn??? LOL I have done that so many times in my pickup I lost count and it still never wipes them off. LOL John
[font size="1" color="#FF0000"]LAST EDITED ON 30-May-01 AT 11:11 PM (EST)[/font][p]Ahh industrial strength bug guts. I had one hit my windshield so hard the other day that I thought it was a rock at first. I know what the last thing to go through his mind was!
I think there's an impact crater on the windhield of my 65 now from him.
