new temporary wheels

I needed something to drive while I'm working on my truck, so I picked up an 82 Olds Cutlass from my buddy for $1. It's his winter beater and he doesn't drive it in the summer. He has a 65 Bel-Air and now a 68 Firebird ragtop he picked up this winter from California. In the fall I have to sell it back to him for a buck and between now and then fix a few minor issues. The GM keys are hard to look at on my Ford keychain, but the deal was too sweet.

That`s how it all starts...you start loosing your hair, your memory, your money, your wife leaves you, etc...
Just kidding, you do what you have to do but be careful.
Preppy, now we`ll have to wash your mouth out....

It's only temporary, so I figured I could get away with it.

With the soaring gasoline prices anything cheap with a small motor is good. Doesn`t look like there is an end in sight.....
