Popular Post 41chevy Posted February 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 5, 2018 While going through 16 file cabinets of literature to get ready for an auction of that , some specialty automotive tools and a few Mopars, I came across these. Saw the '64 Ford and immediately thought of Larry . Times sure changed my Road Runner should get between $130,000 between $170,000. 6 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/52418-cool-ad-for-freightrain/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freightrain Posted February 5, 2018 Share Posted February 5, 2018 We actually have(had) a Downtown Ford here in Canton. It was just bought out by a local conglomerate Liberty Ford as the previous owner retired and sold out. Our local Ford club has been meeting there since the mid 80's. Still a member thought with my part time job on the Willy's I haven't made a meeting in a few years. 1 Quote Larry 1959 B61 Liv'n Large......................

Got it for the big sum of $1775.00 with 15000 miles on it because nobody wanted it. Raced it for a few years and put it in the garage until 2 years ago. Mileage now is almost 18,000. Got 3 other Mopars going on auction too, all low miles but all raced. 1 1 Quote "OPERTUNITY IS MISSED BY MOST PEOPLE BECAUSE IT IS DRESSED IN OVERALLS AND LOOKS LIKE WORK" Thomas Edison “Life’s journey is not to arrive at the grave safely, in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting ‘Holy shit, what a ride!’” P.T.CHESHIRE Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/52418-cool-ad-for-freightrain/#findComment-391291 Share on other sites More sharing options...

h67st Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 In 1981, I was living in Miami FL...I bought a '68 Charger that had been down there all its life. In the early 90's the urge to finally buy my own Mack took over so I sold the Charger. I miss that car but I'd rather have my H67.

66dc75 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 My first car was a 65 Impala 2 door. 230 straight six and a powerglide. Couldn't get in too much trouble with that car. Wish I had my 70 Monte Carlo and 70 Chevelle back. Actually sold my Astro last week and already wish that did't go.
