    Without their weapons, they'd be known as the dunces, not the Duces. :biglaugh: Good thing we don't understand their mental vacuum.

    I got tired of sharp-shooting in the Forces. Couldn't see how it would help me in life beyond 35 years old.

    I'll check that out. I've seen a lot of guys post links to Image Shack without much grumbling. Our ISP's are doing a lot of WWW site throttling and site blocking, just not mine (our provincial Telco).

    Andy and I took her out for her first run on the street. Wow! You touch the gas and you're gone! My 302 was never that peppy. In Mexico, the Fairmont Squires got dual tone horns - sounds like a Lincoln. The reclining seats are awesome! Don't know how I lived without them. Andy is a tall drink of water, and he got real comfy, driving it. Still got some details to clean up - headlight adjustment, change the headlight switch (no rheostat on the instrument panel, tweak the idle, vacuum testing. My first legal JOY RIDE! :biglaugh: In my own car too! I won't smirk at a Ford Six, that's for sure! SWEEEET!

    Just gave her a Wash and Wax here in the early morning, out of the direct sunlight. Takin' a small break, wash the windows and install the air breather plumbing, and hook up the trailer with what's left of the donor, just to show you how small these Fairmont sedans get. Keeping the hood for Andy. the rest goes.

    I'll roller paint the trailer the original red and put a new plank floor, after I get the renos done.
