Thanks! A little beats nothing. Still having trouble finding it, but I'll keep looking.

I've been gone for a while from FABO, but I'm back now. I have started a new job, and can't check in from work ;oke I used to, but I can get facebook updates on my phone. O was wondering if there was a group on facebook already for FABO folks. I couldn't find one, but really didn't know what to...

I call my Galaxie "Miss Bea Haven" - not painted on her yet. When I was a kid if anyone ever called my dart a "green b*tch" she would almost immedietly break down in some way or another - once stuck on 2nd gear, once the headlights went out on a rainy night while returning home with my date...

I used a $2 brushed aluminum sports bottle from Wal-Mart. Looks like a round summit tank, and matches my aluminum radiator perfectly.

Wildcat and fishbowl - I don't want to jack this thread, but I am looking for some lower trim pieces for '68 XL. Shoot me a PM whenever you get a chance - no rush, she's been without them for a decade or so, a little longer won't hurt her feelings any!

Happy Birthday, Ink! I haven't been on much so I'm glad I caught this one before it was too late! May all your aches and pains take a holiday and blessing crowd you out of the house!

Proof that miricles happen every day. I've been in some nast wrecks, but never with my kids in the car - that is my biggest fear. I'll pray for a speedy recovery for all involved. It just goes to remind you how precious those little lives are and how easily they could be taken away.

That's a lot of parts! Just Mustang, maybe a few '68 Galaxie parts mixed in? fordmuscle.com is pretty good, they have the mustangs broken down by generation. They have thousands of members, but everytime I've been on there they only had about 60 people signed on.

Yup.

Really sorry to hear about it, Ink, I'll pray for you both.

Sorry I didn't get back on here in time to wish you luck, but maybe I'm not to late to congratulate you and wish you luck for next year!!!

It's really, really tough to beat free!

'68 Galaxie XL (Daily driver when it's not broken), '74 F-100 (farm & parts runner). I've also owned; '76 Granada (terrible), '77 F-250 (good), '85 t-bird supercoupe (epic - supercharged v-6, got me a points-reduction class), '66 Galaxie 500 (owned it for 1 day when I was 15. left a black...

Just my 2 cents, I took some of the new ones (came with some muffs) and used an x-acto to cut out the pecker and stuck them on my toolbox. I always liked the old style too.

My beagle is always bringing home stuff from the neigbors - but it's ok, he takes off our stuff, too, so it's probably a fair trade. I was going to look around for your cup, glad you found it. If you see a black size 6 girl's tennis shoe or a couple of tan pillows for patio furniture, let me...

Ouch.

Looks good, really bright colors. I remember when tats were either blue or black, unless you got it done in Hong Kong lol!

Happy Birthday,man!

For me, it's electrical stuff. I've got 2 projects (both were drivers) that are sitting because of under-dash electrical problems. I can't justify doing any of the fun-stuff (body/paint) untill I exorcise the electrical demons. Don't do it for the money, you'll be a loser every time. If you...

I was (kind of) in the same boat last year, but I was looking for more of a project. project cars didn't get hit as hard by cash for clunkers, since the age and condition I was looking for had not been tagged and insured, but it did drive the prices up. It took about 6 months longer than I...

Wow, that just has "bad check" written all over it. If they time it right, your bank deposits the money in your account, his "shippers" pick up your grinder and the rest of the money before "his bank" bounces the check and leaves you holding the bag!

I live a stone's throw from Gardendale. When I was growing up "going into town" meant going to Gardendale. It is a nice, quiet little town.

Rofl!!

We got sleet here yesterday and the city shut down. At 4:00 it took me an hour to travel 8 miles through Birmingham, just because of traffic, not ice! By 6:00 it had warmed up to 40 degrees and melted - what a useless pain! If we had snow like that, I would end up like Jack Nicholson at the...

Really sweet-looking car!

Any show about cars, AND/OR on the Discovery channel, I'll watch at least once. Thanks for the heads-up!

'72 /6 dart, 3 speed, 225-14-70 polyglass would do a peg-leg peel from "here to there" any time!

I've always disliked Maverics, but I have to admit that they look better as they (or as I) get older. Compared to new cars, they are beauty queens.

I had a big hassle getting a '68 Ford registered (pre-title), then went back the next day, different clerk, vintage tag, 5 minutes, no trouble. Most of these clerks are not lawyers, and really don't care if you get your car regestered or not. They will tell you it can't be done just so they...

I had a friend in high school with a LRE, he hung a piece of railroad rail (about 200lbs) on the frame right behind the rear bumper. It helped a little.
