I'm totally stoked. Oddly enough, after being locked in the barn sense before thanksgiving, sporting a shot of fuel stabilizer, Baby of all rides wants to go!!! Alright way to go Baby!!
Cruzin down the ville in my 64
Rockin the beat....Rockin the beat....

Guess we'll leave FOTO here for now. Can't get into the fields this morning with the car hauler anyway.

Anyway it's crisp chill this AM. I go out to the barn, get in Baby, pump twice (was started 3 weeks ago) turn key, Ah-hu VOOM!!!!
DANG!!! Want to go for a ride or what girl??!!! Bring her out in the sun to warm up. Went in to lock up the pups and we are outta heeeah!
WOOOOHOOOOOOO!:cheers:

Sun is out clear today and will push 55 degrees but nowhere there yet. Light foggy mist in the air as we breeze down US 50 east with the heater kickin. Turn left onto 350. Right onto North Hogan, running along N.Hogan Creek (Crappie central)
AHHHHHHH LOOK OUT FOR THE FREEKIN TURKEYS BABY!!

Yeah...Whatever...LOL!!!:happy10:

I took some stills of the goods once we get there. The heaps over the hill? 5 of em. Just junk but it's groceries on the table and cars in the yard.

Fade to background logic or...illogical actions = great returns grasshopper...
As some of you know here, I like to doll out good karma in the slim hope I might get a 10% return when things are at their worst for me. Luckily that's the way it happens with me. A couple weeks back, there was a call from a local vet back from the big suck (The war) He said the only family car blew up on his wife before he came home on leave. He would only be here another week and needed as much for his car as possible. So for the rest of that morning, I brokered his car deal, calling my buyers, especially the best one who also is a vet like me (both of us airdales) We worked it out to where he got paid in cash, all the proceeds involved with the deal including my take. My buyer had another tow co. pick it up before noon, and give him the cash (as much as possible for his make of car on that given scrap price day)
He called soon after lunch to thank me and let me know they were on there way out to get her another car so his family had transpo when he went back to the big suck the next week. He had no clue as to how it all happened so fast and how there was so much more money given to him than what I first priced....Fagetaboutit!! Vets helping Vets. Thanks for your service, and please come back after the job is done. God bless you sir!!
Payin it foward...as many of the members here at FABO know all about.:cheers:
Well haven't had too many cars to haul lately (2 in Jan and 1 was his) Tuff livin'!! But I've been hoping something good would happen soon. We sold a couple of our cars, then BAM! This lady calls and here comes chapter 26!!

Fade back to present....
You guys have to see these Gravleys! (Machines that replaced the horse on the farm, many atachments, lots of collectors. Sorry bout my spelling) I looked over in a brush pile (This is good time of year to be "pickin" cars, all the leaves and weeds are dead and you can see everything) there were 5 of these Gravleys in there!! Look over and there's another!! I ask about them and she said someone else is going to price. I said well when ya get that price, call me and lets see if we can beat that price. She grinned from ear to ear. Needs the $$ too! Then she says those 2 tractors too! Here's the Lebaron.

Then we shoot over the hill for my daily bread and butter, see the pics yuk!
Then it's back up front to the house for another chebby. Then she says give her a price on the bull dozer too. OKAY!

Oh and here is the Pinto........:love7:
Guess it wasn't in the garage but still love it!! Bright spot in this pick but the sheer volume is greatly needed by me and her!! I know this car. I have a buddy with a V-twin shop and he had bought it for his son who didn't like it. He then gave it back to previous owner who sold it to this nice lady. Eeh, small town LoL! Check the gold bling on dem rims!!!!
Plaid seats...wheres the keys so I can get pics of the inside??
Keys to all 8 cars still being found. We did get all her vin numbers so as soon as she gets her titles she says she's calling me right away due to not trusting the other local junkers! Cool Honesty, respect, customer service, and always trying to help when I can, PAYS OFF!!!!:cheers:

Well that's going to do it for chapter 26 of
CAR HUNT! FABOZENE:glasses2:
