Stop in for a cup of coffee

Been chatting with the guy that has the 65 Coronet. He's in no rush to move it and I can go see it at anytime. It would be exciting to pick it up at Farmington show. Dang, "Mopars at the Park". I just saw it is turquoise and not baby blue. Cool color for the 60's. Kind of a mint green.
 
That's why Mopars look so good under the hood. Not boring like Chevy black and chrome.
The Monte Carlo's fuel line clips are yellow, brake line clips are kind of a cream color and the big clips that hold both are blue. I figure that's a factory identification thang.
 
Good evening, a brief announcement then back to regularly scheduled programming...I feel very good and they are taking good care of me...very neatly done too

Yiiiiikes the ol' peritoneal catheter huh? I went in the urologist's office back in '06 on an emergency and the guy went in a drawer, got one of those out and just shoved it in me. No anesthetic, no warning, just GOOMPH! I looked down and said "Did you just stick that in me!" But I guess I was gonna die otherwise so OK, and it surprisingly didn't hurt much. Is yours for dialysis or just a urethral problem? I hadda go to work with that thing for like a month. It wasn't too bad. Beat the heck out of the alternative.

Hey you'd never in a zillion years guess the name of the urologist who did that. Dr. Peter Tucker. Yeah no lie. Is that priceless or wot.

Gulf green is what it's called. I call it Kermit green. Top is Chevy dark green, so when done it'll look about like this -

Is this stupid or wot: Got an email from OPGI saying today's the last day of their big interior parts sale, so with the idea of putting in a big order, I clicked on their site. Well, in yet another advancement in ciber-idiocy, they now have a utility that comes on and doesn't let you access the site at all until you put in your vehicle make, model and year. And it doesn't work! Click ANY model of car, it just buffers for like, minutes, then says "Vehicle model not found". Couldn't find Monte Carlo. Couldn't find Chevelle. Couldn't find Barracuda. It's a world gone stupid.
they suck and arent they GM only?
 
Nice must have missed that. I’ve not been here much the last few days
he was here this am.


Hey, any word on your car? You leave you soon
I talked to George yesterday for a while. He's having a little trouble tweeking the quarters. Sent me pics. He's gonna modify the quarters in one place on each side to fit properly, with correct gaps.

Was going to pop in on him tomorrow ( 2 hr drive, each way ), but since he called me, I'll stay here and wrap things up.....
