got an ol car ? lets see it !

[CRFyou]

Are you running the Flat I-6 or Flathead 8?

i've got the v-8 flatty. right now i've got an edmunds 2 carb intake, headers, just converted to a 12v gennie. and when i get back home from amsterdam, i have some offy heads in my living room that need to get on the car.

this car is getting way out of hand though. i'm going to need to sell a bike to keep getting this car the way i want.

what's good with your galaxie? you rocking that badass 390?

oh that sucks. there's some awesome ass galaxies on the HAMB right now.

this 64 for $6,000 bux! i would buy this for sure if i was looking for a car. i think there's another one for cheap too.

i went crazy with that jeep color(rescue green),

I did the same thing with my Merc . I sat up in my window looking at new cars for a month trying to find a nice colour . I had Suzuki Samurai , Jeeps , all kinds of interesting greens picked out . Eventually I used the green on it , 1998 mustang .

It was nice to walk into the paint shop and just tell him the year and make , and then have him add a bunch of gold pearl to top it off .

That colour looks awesome BTW , glad to see someone use it on a nice old rig like that .

Here is my latest project I picked up a few months back, a '69 Dart with a big block. I am planning on going with a period correct super stock style racer.

oh.. duh... i saw that merc, and didn't pay close enough attention. that's a rad car!

too bad someone else is taking his chick to make-out point in it...

i bought the ford because i couldn't afford a sweet merc.

Looks like a good start to me. A MOPAR is the only "musclecar" I would consider owning. The pic is cool too. Old car, old truck, old buildings. If it wasn't for the trailer looking too new it would look like it was a pic right out of the 70's.

Here's the ol' girl in all her glory - 53 Buick Special, but a long way from her origins...

[carl609]

Heres my 62 bel air, thats been sitting in the garage way too long


and my 67 GMC, traded this for the truck in the background of the top pic, which I traded for my Sporty. I wish I still had it, minus the red wheels

I had a long line of customs before that car . I didn't actually spend any money to get the merc . I traded a chopped '54 ford for the merc , and traded a '49 ford with a hopped up flathead for the '54 . Horse trading at it's finest !

Here are a few more pictures of some of the old cars I've had in the past . Most of them were trades .

Here's the '54 I swapped for the Merc
