Yes Randy is doing his own stuff. Just before he pulled the plug I offered to hire him for a couple jobs but he was adamant that he'd only be working on his own stuff.
I also think Randy does not have a home computer he is not into tech stuff at all.

To refuse to abide by this sign-writing ridiculousness, all a customer has to do is to take any denomination bill out of their wallet and read one sentence out-loud to the person behind the counter: "This note is legal tender for all debts, public and private." 

So, cash is already being refused  And, unless you live completely off-the-grid and can survive that way, barter can only take you so far. 

100% agree - however if they refuse to sell you the item is it a debt? You owe them nothing until they are willing to transfer the item to you. I'd approach it as an age discrimination case and get the feds involved. Should make a good Fox news story - of course on CNN they'll spin it as you are an economic terrorist.

I've got Hagerty on 2 cars - no claims.
I don't like that SAAC uses them for convention registration. Bring that back inhouse so I'm not forced to share my info with a 3rd party.

Honest there is a 302 hidden under there.

...... not sure about the photo with Twiggy...

Before the Mustang the pop culture embraced the Mini. There are also shots of her with a Toyota 2000 but I think they are just promo shots.

And this is the car that changed the complete snack and chips business

The Cheetah

Who would have thunk?

Or as Jerry Titus named it - the Gyro. You never knew which way it would point.

The Aztec was so unsalable to reduce inventory Pontiac made all the execs take them as company cars instead of any other model.

The Megastar and 2 other  Ghia concept Fords can be yours - https://www.dragoneclassic.com/inventory

I must agree my 06 GT auto was a great commuter and had enough performance to be a good canyon carver.
Paid 16 grand out the door in 2011 - added cold air intake and Magna Flow exhaust those woke it up more than I thought it would.

Did you say Jeannie chassis  ?

Let me show you what I think are probably the best Jeannie chassis I have found......

Gentlemen your thoughts

Miss San Francisco 1951 - she and Michael Ansara lived a couple miles away and every male had their Jeannie spotting story. Don't forget before she moved to FL there was that stint in Mayberry.

Quote from: Side-Oilers on February 25, 2023, 08:01:26 PMDon't forget Dan Blocker in that movie.

Yep - I knew a guy who owned his Genie chassis Vinegaroon - it had been lengthened and one of Shelby's old McLaren M8 bodies was on it. Interesting how both are now "discovered" and restored as vintage racers.

still patiently awaiting the penance payment

I'd love to pay you but I loaned my map to that horde to Tony Rome way back in 1968. It's probably still there - The Lady in Cement scared him away and later Raquel Welsh distracted him from diving.
