Sadly I've forgotten 1/2 I've read & learnt.Haven't seen it in person yet but just looked at the picture again and yes it has the Gold Duster sticker on the fender also the side stripe

Well maybe you aren't as travelled OR knowledgeable as I when it comes to local slang: I know UK (Limey), Australian AND USA...BUTto State "Mentally Unstable OR insane ..." Is a little bit TOO much below the belt cheap shot; that's offensive & if a little cryptic humor goes over your head I can't help that (Although I knew & figured I'd have to start dumbing the posts & replies down) After all, I AM a published Author & although you explained the obvious, I still take rightfully offense at the mentally unstable & insane quip.My man, you are going to have to communicate on a level that side steps where your from and delegate regional slang and a more smooth thought process geared towards the topic at hand.
All of your lasts posts leave me clueless and wondering if your mentally stable or just crazy until I noticed your from NZ. While I get a few of you references, there not making any sense.
He never said you were mentally unstable.

Whats being a "Liberal" & i use that term loosely, going anything to do with matters ? Except narrowing a mind. ? - Seeing I'm ALSO a 3rd gen Professional Broadcaster & DJ who'd just finished a Double Shift ( Granddads Radiostation was on Air in 1922 before UK's BBC was even conceived): I rarely slipped up ; Bob Seager/Billy Joel (hey near enough with the music Selection I deal with in a week), but looks like I'm starting to ruffle the feathers of the usual 'in house' Click & FYI , I guess you've been lurking at my posts with that quip about: "Stop Trying to Confuse me with *made up* ?! Facts ..." Huh ?? Who the hell are you ?? I've from memory Never replied to you b4, I have vaste practical experience & inside knowledge beyond my years...ONLY learnt from being in right place at right time, 2/ I only ever give out knowledge to help people, NOT charge what you pay good $ for in the States, 3/ FYI I NEVER MAKE UP ANY INFO/COMMENTS: I THINK THE GREEN EYE MONSTER IS SHOWING ITS 1 EYE WITH YOU, TRUTH BE TOLD.Working on mysteries without any clue is NOT Billy Joel by the way. That would be Bob Seger. So quit trying to confuse me with your made up facts. I will never be a liberal. Yes, I said never. But it is better than hand brakes on a buick.
He never said you were mentally unstable. "...wondering if your mentally stable or just crazy until I noticed..."
Key word - 'until'.
Now about that 73 Gold Duster...
Seems like somewhere around 73 or 4 they started using the LBP on V8 and disc? and kept the SBP drums? on slant cars? I bet the slants could be ordered with discs too.Was 73 some kind of transition year? I know mine has large bolt pattern..

& 4/ AS ROMMEL found out to his Armies cost in the North African Desert, you gotta be up early to mess with & take on a New Zealander & come right side up when your wrong,
Got the message ?: you DIDN'T pick a good day ( but I knew it was coming, sooner or later: seen & heard it ALL b4).
Oh & "...When better Cars are built, BUICK will build them" ...bet I made that one up to confuse you, too ??..
Sigh, my shoulders are brought:BUT O DON'T like backhandedly being called a lied/fraud whatever , ok ??.
Sorry, its there in Black & white was he was thinking - plain as day. Your starting to reason like an ex wife/Woman ( no offense ).

Correct. Info I have shows disc as standard for v8 and option for slant beginning in 73. I believe the big pattern was just an unspoken change that went with the discs.Seems like somewhere around 73 or 4 they started using the LBP on V8 and disc? and kept the SBP drums? on slant cars?

Nobody asked you to read, On More than one count, no drama here. But if someone is going to have doubts about 1's mental stability & sanity, sponged from 3/5th's & then you even claim to not read past 1'st line how can you call MY just response drama ?.
Sorry, not even reading that past the first line. Nothing personal, but I don't do drama and it sure looks like that is where this has gone...
So, if you want to get back to car talk and general BS, all good. Otherwise I'll see you in the funny papers.
Actually the early A Body K-H discs was SBP no doubt. Anyway nice project.Correct. Info I have shows disc as standard for v8 and option for slant beginning in 73. I believe the big pattern was just an unspoken change that went with the discs.

But I regress, your definitely full of yourself. You THINK I insulted you but in the very same post you insult others. Like in this post of yours "#47"I'm NOT going to talk like a Newfoundland Fisherman just to be understood & fit in, given my knowledge & published history
Ok ?
Only wish I could hit agree, thanks and like for a single post!Ahhhh, don't take offense. Lighten up Francis. I'd say I'm not well traveled or super smart in anything. I'm just an average Joe form around the block. And I would guess that is the problem with not knowing all the worlds local slang. So sorry to hear you won't dumb down your super intelligence to a common mans level. There really is a need to do so since most here are a common fella sort. Unless your looking to bolster yourself in someway. I could inject lots of big words, but that doesn't help. The average reader needs an easy read to get the message quickly and clearly as to be understood without goggling slang and cryptic words and messages. Speaking plainly is best for all.
But I regress, your definitely full of yourself. You THINK I insulted you but in the very same post you insult others. Like in this post of yours "#47"
Perhaps your not as smart as you think you are. You read like you are becoming unhinged. (Maybe he is crazy?) OH, if you want my address so I can actually insult you in person, PM, I'll help with airfare. Then when were done with the stupidness of it all, I'll show you around some car show that stack a few thousad cars per show. This Island is really awesome in it's rides and show gatherings.
I just don't understand the meaning behiond the obvious jab of "PS the "World" isn't America, given forgien policy attitude."
This kind of make you sound like you have the tiny man syndrome.
Nice to know you have been published and authored. Please so do include a list of reading material.
NOW! IF were done here..... mucking up the thread with off topic banter.... back to the topic at hand?
If you want to continue, PM me and we can continue....direction? You are at the helm on this one.
