    He paid $250, he sold it for $500. That included a replacement engine and clutch that he hadn't installed.



    The high performance cars can bring thousands of dollars when restored. Mine had such a small engine, it would not have been worth much.



    Sounds like a good deal, if he only has to pay for parts. You live close enough to big cities that getting parts should not be difficult.





    Hey, Shells, where are you tonight?

    okay still drinking wine..........I keep tabs on a few threads....Constipation, Just Diagnosed Get Prepared, Insomnia, Pinktober Revolution b/c they ar my threads.  A few threads I started, I stopped monitoring b/c I have left them. Then there is Port Placement TB57 wrote a few years ago, great place to go , but needs monitoring. The point is .........In case someone needs to pick these up , if I'm gone. Just saying this as an in case scenario.

    Re:Southlanders

    Alyson and ChrissB, I've called you all southlanders forever. When I asked you or Chrissy. if(you) had you ever heard that term, whomever stated no. Well, I signed off STFU by saying I was going to find the southlanders. So then googled it. It exists. I must have seen it as a young one in a book. To you, we then could be oppositely termed the northlanders if you care.

    dictionary.reference.com/brows...

    Sounds a strange thing to think about, but I never understood on either sides of the ponds why no one new the term....it was so clear to me the usage, ergo, something wasn't right. I guess it's a very fallen away term.  But I like it b/c it's ecompassing. When I say southlanders, I'm thinking Austarlia, Auckland , New Zealand(sic?)

    Hi Sass, from the ''great southern Land' as it is known by some old enough to remember an Aussie hit song of 30 yrs ago.

    As far as I know, it is not a generally accepted name by the locals....but I think most would think of us on hearing 'southlanders.'

    I was woken up by DH at 1:30 am to be asked the symptoms of bowel cancer! You'd think I'd know them off pat after diverticulitis, perforated bowel and colostomy

    in the last 20 months....but NO! Nothing came to mind but 'why did he want to know?'

    He had a pain and couldn't 'do' anything afterward...nothing else

    He took one of my stool softener meds and 'went' when he woke up this morning.

    As yet, my med hasn't worked.

    Meanwhile, I'm left wide awake while he snored his head off.  Grrrr!

    Sheila.

    Morning Hooligans!  ME here!  I think if Ducky doesn't come back, I will be designated the new prettiest, oldest and smartest one on here!  I AM you know....

     

    Miss Julianna!  Nice to see you pop in!  Where have you been hiding lately?  With Veggy?  She came out of her 2 word posts, and I hardly recognized her!

     

    Blondie...I just hope you are better by now!  Did you GO?  Got to get it firured out...

     

    Grammiefoley, how is your bite?  If it doesn't go down soon, something else is going on with it....  And this is from DoctorChevy...

     

    ChickaDeeders.. I'll have all "the girls" next door say a prayer for you.  I'm feeding them again...  I'm armed with a big plastic leaf rake, to hold in front of me when I open their coop!  Those damn girls try and make a run for it when it's open!   They are so used to being foot-loose and fancy free now, that they hate being "cooped" up..... Ha, ha.  That was funny.  And I ain't a gonna' go chasing after them when they make a bee-line under the deck and out into their yard!   But they gave me an egg!  They (the girls) thanked me for watching and feeding them again.

     

    Sass, yes, the brown-recluse spider!  I remember my Doc saying that  some people have to have skin-grafts after that bite...  I was treated with antibiotics....  and told not to sit for a week!  (just kidding)   I have no more splits on my fingers today! 

     

    NOW I don't know if it is me THINKING it is the Sulfodene, and staying away from it, or the little bit of Premarin cream I have been using, that is making it better.   I also have a new tube of 20% Urea cream that I use twice a day.  All I know is my hands are resembling real hands now, instead of cracked, puffy, peeling appendages.  

     

    I DO use spell check!  Ha, ha!  I mean my computer does it automatically... It goes NUTS when I add to your names.... 

     

    Cammilostus....  I TOLD you, to NEVER drink and type at the same time.   You used a big word!!!!!  "Plausible"...!!!!!!!!  Damn, I'm proud of you!    And you "forgot what you thought"??????   Ha,ha!  Our kind of girl!  (youatechicken???)  I have to whisper that, you know... 

     

     

    Hi Dwilli!  Oh WOW!  Go get the bitch!   I MEAN!   Can we all go with you and throw rocks at her?  AND your X?   Sounds like you are okay with it all, I mean not taking flares or something to throw at them!

    I COULD add.... that TRAMP.... that  pig-faced TROLLOP!  

     

     

    Veggy, (Miss Vitamin Green-Pea!!!)   Ha, ha!  I don't think that's "normal".... Is it?

    "The thread-trasher!"  Amongst us!    Can she DO that?  I copied that picture of Lassie losing Timmy, and sent it to my Daughters'!

     

    Miss SweetPeaStacey!  Yes, I'm thinking it IS that Sulfodene!  All I know is my arms/wrists are NOT broke out, and my hands are holding their own today...(I mean I'm not holding hands with myself, they are just not having fits today)...

    Yes!  You guys, I live 2 blocks from the old Elitch's!  Have lived that close since I was 10!  I worked there, my Daughter's worked there, and I've never been to the "new" one!  My Grandpa worked in the green-houses there!   My Brother and I used to sneak in under the fence when we were little, (when they were closed) and lay on our stomachs and look for money under the merry-go-round!    It was OURS alone!  And no-one caught us!   We had the "world" to ourselves!

     

    You guys had a STEALTH!!!?????  Isn't that a bomber?  I think those are illegal!  Better get that checked out!  I didn't think they fit in garages, but what do I know?

     

    And morning Shells!  You're gonna hurt your brain, studying so much! 

     

    Love you guys! xoxoxoxo

    Veggy I LOVE your Lassie pictures. Portraying Lassie as evil. Now that is priceless! I also laughed at your green pea syndrome. I had an external hemorrhoid around Christmastime, and I was sure it was a tumor. LOL

    My, you guys were busy last night. I was busy watching my ghost shows on the travel channel. I can never get caught up on everything you're saying when I miss that much...Except for Dwills blazing into Atlanta in her fine Caddy-shouldnt bring any attention there-no sir.Ive never had a cool car..teen-age car was a Pinto-the only car in the world I begged my dad Not to get me...went from that to another ugly Ford, cant remember what it was..then went to Mom-vansyuck. Didnt get anything I picked out until last year when I bought myself a little Rav-4. I love that car...Kids dont laugh at how slow I drive anymore. Dh has to tell me to slow down when we're in the mountains,but it sure is fun....

    Oh Veggy!  No little honey.... Not YOU, just sprouts I grow in my planters, Ha, ha!  I COULD take them fruit-loops, but afraid they would leave evidence, and their parents would get mad...Wink

    Blondie, will you know something today from the scans?  Hope it shows that you are normal....again!  I HATE when I am feeling just lousy, and they can't find anything WRONG!   Or like the cat-scan that showed my back "only" had a slight bulge in one of the disks, and I could hardly WALK!    Finally had to have a double-laminectomy for THAT "minor" problem.  That pain, (sciatica) will bring you to your knees.... and you'll just want to stay there! 

    Yes Cammiconfused.... I HOPE it is something....!  But they are better, and don't know if it is the Estrogen cream OR the Urea cream, and also wearing long gloves when I fool around with little dog-face..... and that hot-spot spray!

    It was so QUIET in the little nesting "box" and SHE was in there.... but I didn't bother her....  and she came down, and I snatched her egg!  YOU are getting as bad as ME with these chickens, Ha, ha!   I DIDN'T shove her out of there!   She likes me....I can tell.... Rosie is her name..... laying eggs is her game...... Wink

    Good Morning everyone -- my, I woudl love a throne.  Well, there is a porcelain one in two rooms of my house.....I think that is as close as I'm going to get. 

    Chevy....what great news about your hands.  Sure hope it is a SIMPLE answer.  Amazing in a way that  ( this has come up so many times before ) our tendency is to go for the big stuff.  Something so dreadful couldn't have an EASY answer or FIX.  I've done it so many times......yet, in my own mind I know.....you get the best results when you take everything down to the lowest point you can to find the answer.  Can't look at anything like the huge technical problem with long drawn out complicated formulas that it seems to be.  Cut it down to the right size.....then fix it.

    As to the Cadillac Lady.....there is one of those priceless items.  Funny sort of thing.  When my first dh and I split --- I actually did the splitting, I was super ok when he remarried.  Then he remarried again, and again after that.  He is on number five.  I have been quite friendly with all of them.  I can think of him fondly -- but am VERY glad that someone else puts up with him.  He was too much for me.  Anyway....real sense of freedom making yourself happier than they could or ever really did. 

    Spiders.....we have a lot of them here in Illinois.  Brown Recluse is a biggie.  We have a plethora of strange looking bugs.  Most of the ones I don't much care for are outdoor ones so not  too much of an issue for me.  I do avoid them when possible. 

    Good day to all.

    I always wanted a sports car.  When I bought my first car I wanted the '56 Thunderbird.  Dad talked me into a '60 Ford Falcon, I was moving accross the State and he thought it would be more reliable and car repairmen were notorious for taking advantage of single women.  The Falcon was a lemon and the town's repairman was the schools busdriver who believed it was his God given duty to take good care of the "poor, under-paid teachers cars."  I always wanted a sports car and the same day I applied for Social Security - at 62 - I bought a '95 Plum Corvette!  Almost a year ago I had to give up driving her because it got too hard to get out of her.  Eight years was enough to satisfy my need for a sports car. Replaced her with a Lincoln.

    DH has been driving Sassy, the Corvette, but he has trouble getting in and out so today we say goodby to her.  Our best friend, his son and their wives are coming down from Port Townsend to take her away.  She shows her age a bit but the son wants her and will restore her to her glory.  He knows what he is doing, has the experience and the tools for the job.  I will make him promise to bring her for a visit when he has her all fixed up.

    Chabba a corvette is like a piece of gold wen all restored--that had to be a fun car to drive.My dad allowed me to get a DL when I was 16 but didn't allow me to drive-yet my brother got his own car.And my other brother could use my dad's car. and my sister didn't get a DL til she was married. It was different then. So when I got married I actually had a car to drive--I don't even remember what it was but I could drive it.

    Veggy no one wants to feed anyanimal with u'r body so don't worry. Calm down.

    Chevy so now u call them by their names--what next sitting with them while they lay an egg and grab it from them.Chevy this is probbly of no use to u, but I was thinking u know those dry, dry things u get on u'r elbos, well I used surgeons skin stuff and in a few day they'r all gone--u can use it anywhere on feet and other areas--Like I said I don't know if that's of any intetest to u , but I just thought of it.

    I still smell like Pink Sugar so sweet, hmmm so relaxing too. After I take a shower I'm so happy, but before I think oh I can't do this, but I do. I'm very dramatic.

    OK how are all the sickos doing, I hope u have a better day and Blondie I sure hope all is well. As soon as u know u have to tell us. (((HUGS)))

    OK I'm done ypping I was kind today, well as kind as I could be, but don't count on that all day, I can only keep that up a short time.

    Ladies of "a certain" age might remember this. When DD was in HS, in the late 80s DH bought her a 67 Mustang. She drove it for several years, then he took it back and restored it.



    Sanding down through 13 layers of different colors paint, come to the original paint. It came from the factory. PINK. We still have it and it is still pink



    Anybody remember pink ones?

    Oh my sweet friends, you have delighted me beyond measure with your morning glories. You are such a blessing, what a wonderful way to start the day!

    The first car that I drove was my dad's Chevy Impala. I used to sneak the keys  at night, roll it down the driveway and start it up down the street, then go visit my friends from 1 a.m to 3 a.m., then come home and slip into bed quiet as a mouse! Never got caught!! Next car was a Valiant that I shared with my live-in boyfriend when I was 19. The first car I owned all by myself was a 69 MGB when I was 21 and in nursing school. Oh how I loved that car, and oh how I got having a convertible out of my system at an early age! Lots and lots of fun, fun, fun and memories of teaching my brothers how to drive it, having breakdowns all the time among all the other adventures. Then when I met DH I bought my first new car, a sensible Toyota Corolla because I wanted something safe for having family. Then a Toyota Sienna! From sportscar to van......loved that Sienna, but 12 years later donated it to charity and got my Honda Fit which I love, love, love so much. I keep cars forever, until they can't go anymore, and plan to do that with this baby. 

    No feeding Veggy to the chickens, you guys, you hear me?!! You got her feathers all ruffled and now she might lay an egg...

    Sassy wil probably be MIA for awhile. Where the hell is Duckster? I'm gonna go hunt her down....

    Good afternoon you nuttie buddies!



    I'm still trying to get through this chemo juice hangover. I also learned that another vibrant young woman that I truly admire is has entered hospice. Where is the f'ing cure for f'ing cancer!?



    To distract and entertain myself I've been reading regency romance novels. One after the other. Good heavens, I hope it doesn't cause permanent drain bamage. Oh wait, I already have that!



    Love all the car stories! Loved my Fiat Spider convertible the best of all the ones I've owned.

    So, okay, we're still on cars....  I used to drive my Dad's car.... a '51 Buick!  That thing was sooooo big!  But I could not ever afford my own car.  DH drove a 51' Olds!   And that's what we had when we got married in  57!   We finally borrowed money from my Grandma to get a 52 Chevy, and I even put a head-liner in it with material, and stiched it like they do with coffins....Ha!  That was the only way to hold it up!  

    Then we got a 55 Chevy, and finally a 57 chevy!  DH put a stick in it.... converted it from the automatic!  We loved that car....  Just finally sold it about 10 years ago to his Nephew for $17,000!  Probably could have gotten more, but he was family.  Everything had been chromed on that thing... It was a hard-top, and black, and would fish-tail down the highway everytime DH thought he was being Evil Knievel!   Glad he got too old to work on it, and wanted to sell it.  MY car is a 99' Chevy Prism!  And has almost 115 thousand miles on it, and still runs perfect.   It was my first "new" car!  Wink

    Spookie!  I remember when Elvis Presley came to town, and bought his Officer friend, and 4 others, PINK CADILLAC'S!   I WISH he was MY friend! 

    Hi Veggy....  I'll THINK of you and Cammi, when I go check on "the girls!"  Hopefully they will reward me with another two-yolk egg!   You guys are just jealous!   Actually I wish you were WITH me, to help me get in the coop, without the girls making a run for it!   You could be the border patrol!  Ha, ha!

    Hi ladies...



    Love all of the car stories, I am jealous! Sass how cool Stephen must have been so excited, that's a muscle car. My first car was a Ford Aerostar Van, ugh not cool but I was grateful just to have a car to drive. My friends loved it bc we could all fit. My dream car when I was 16 was the volkswagen cabriolet. I wanted to put my Beastie Boys bumper sticker on the back. Boy did I day dream about that car :)



    Chevy that is so cool that your grand-dad worked in the green house. What fun memories... My first kissing make-out sessions was on the ferris wheel. Loved the original twister the remake is not the same.



    Blondie so glad you are going for a PET scan. I was just so pissed, zpack my a**!! Pls let us know!!



    Hugs xoxo

    Sweet Pea
