A Horse With No Name

Totally crude, but I've got a long term friend who went to a different high school than I did. One of the popular people at my friend's high school wanted to know what sex with an animal was like, so (popular kid) tried to have oral sex with a cow...with the cow playing "catcher." Guy was de-nutted and de-shafted in short order, and there wasn't anything the doctors could do. And I am NOT making this up. Anything involving animals and Human private parts is a bad idea, methinks... Oh, and my friend went to high school in Alabama if that means anything. Chris

Okay, she's a worthless ####. Done deal. I think were speaking with our emotions as animal lovers rather than our rational minds when we call for her death. That being said...I love my cats! And my 13 year old daughter Joanna works at a shelter for abused animals. Amazing how many people in this world treat cats and dogs like crap. Chris

It is indeed, and that is another great collectible GM car that is sometimes overlooked. For the longest time around here we had a blue on blue L79 (correct code? Not sure- the high Horse 327) 4 speed car that was all original, as well as a yellow 327 Powerglide car that was so clean and original it just hurt to look at it. Haven't seen either car at shows in a couple of years, wonder what happened to both. Chris

Speaking of which...and you don't want to hear this but... I think the blue color you've picked is great, but you might also want to consider silver. Today, the EAA had a young eagles event at Bolten Field (our local airport). Three youngest kids went up. We parked next to a really nice family in an Intrepid that was silver and it was beautiful. It was slightly overcast and the car just looked sooo goooood in that light. And I thought of you and your loyalty to the intrepid when I met the Pilot taking my kids up. Guy named Dick Weatherall, really nice guy, with the same Cessna 172 for 22 years, man and plane had travelled all over North America together. Methinks loyalty to a machine is a beuatiful thing.

Okay, I'm a post whore but I'm also a car nut. Went to a car show with my son Joel last night. Pro touring 69 Camaro, Cortez silver, car just had the look. 58 Chevy Apache rat rod, also had the look. 70 Cougar XR7 Convertible, red, black top, white interior, pro touring, best car in the show. I just love these little kitties. This one had kind of an Eliminator vibe, even though they never built an Eliminator convertible. 65 Falcoln wagon, Primerd, lowered, polished Americans. Another cool car...an unmolested, never touched 67 Chevy II drag car that looked like it was right out of 1974. 4 door, all original paint, bias ply's...this thing would drive balthazar crazy and it's a Chevy. It was just that original, untouched, and cool. Silver 37 Chevy Street rod that was running a very healthy big block. Chris

Bertone coupe is cool, thanks for the link. Doubt that's collectable, Oldsmoboi. The little P1800 wagons are awesome though. Chris

Thanks for the link, Y-J. Anyone with any more info on the GMC trucks of this era? Chris

Your welcome...I have a few more of the 59's I'll post, and a few more Pontiac pics from the yard I'll post later. Chris

Should be a well detailed machine when it's done! Chris

There was also a one of one purple Corvette that was given away as an award to a GM employee. McDorman had THAT car also. Chris

A well known local collector, Bob McDorman, has the 8th SSR built, and it is purple. He's also the guy that has that sweet 59 El Camino I was telling you about...and he also recently put up for auction the very first 1960 (IIRC) Corvette ever built, serial number one... Chris

Think Prowler was with Plymouth till the end, I could be wrong. Think it became Chrysler when they wanted to continue building the car after Plymouth died. However, I am going to steal a page from balthazars playbook. I'm going to thiunk of Plymouth in terms of RWD Fury's Superbirds and Roadrunners. I'm going to gracefully forget the crappy FWD minivans, the K cars, and the rest of the crap. There is some sanity in living pre-1975 when it comes to domestic cars. Chris

Does anyone here have any info on Pontiac V8's in GMC trucks in the 50's? I know they did it...just don't know the when and where. Any info? Chris

Camino-SSR looks good in that color... I didn't really like the SSR that much when it came out but it is growing on me. I saw a Studebaker Pick up, one of the last ones with the front end that looked like it was off of a lark. Chris

Actually I may get mauled by a bear. I live in Columbus, Ohio but work in Chillicothe, Ohio. Down in Chillicothe a bear is on the loose from the southern Ohio woods. they've tried to catch it, with no luck.

Amazingly, I remember talking to my Grandfather about Civil War veterans he had met. The world has become much less conflict oriented since the 1980's...we don't think about the people who fought for our freedom often enough, IMHO... Chris

Actually, I am 90% sure that I am wrong but I thought I remembered a few of the 78-87 Era Cutty's with a Manual shift... Chris

PETA people can be asshats. However...in this case...Camino is right. Whatever happens to her is too good for her. Chris

65 Malibu A 65 Malibu post would just be badass as a tan sleeper with a 454 or 396 big block. Too bad this car will never have that much fun... Chris

A shaggin waggon for Oldsmoboi... Chris

Time for a shiny car...the 59 Sedan Delivery I was telling XP715, Sixty Eight, Camino and Balthazar about...more pics later...

Amazing how much everything has decayed and gone downhill in the 15 or 16 years I've been coming out here... Chris

That will buff right out....

...an old Impala for gm4life...to celebrate his (much cleaner) Impala...

Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick...in better shape....? For VinSeattle
