Howdy ya’ll,
Wow, not used to seeing green…
I’m usually over in the railroading forum, but now I’m doing a sitewide search. For those who don’t know me, I attend Widener University outside of Philly PA. I have noticed a car near where I park my truck in the ACN lot with a trains.com bumper sticker(where can I get one of those by the way) and some model railroad club stickers as well. It’s on a silver volvo and I’m just wonderin who it is.

At least those are Fords.
What kind of ROTC comment is that, you’re on the railroading forum?
What do you think this is?
Go Navy.

3/4 race 1950 Merc in my 49 Willys…
49Willys? Why not go luxury car and put it in a Henry J?
'cause I needed the wagon for my mobile auto repair biz for 25 or 30 years, that’s why.
Henry J. Kaiser’s are a tad small.
Been inside one?
God help us, a Ford nut…
Hey man, it’s MOPAR or NO-CAR, got it???[:(!]
Go Army. Redlegs forever!!!

One of the few mistakes old Henry made was that when he fire the Dodge Brothers he didn’t shoot them.
Same with Walter P. Chrysler.
Just a fun question, how many miles on your no-par?
TOC
Oooh, that hurts, TOC. I live 4 miles from Chrysler Hall and the Chrysler fine art Museum, evidently Walter was more of a cultural icon than most people know or give him credit for. I also live 2.2 miles from the Norfolk Ford F150 assembly plant, which, ironicaly, is exactly across the street from the junkyard that is overflowing with Ford products. I’m not saying anything, just pointing out a fact, if you want I can post a photo.
As for your question, which one? My 400hp Moustwang eating '71 Plymouth Valiant hot rod has only 400 miles on it, since I just built it recently, my '50 Plymouth P-20 has 75k on the clock, and my van has 131,000 as it is only 5 years old.
Lets recap- torsion rod suspension- Chrysler, hemi heads- Chrysler, mini-van- Chrysler, General Lee- Chrysler, Gen MacArthur’s car- Chrysler, unibody- Chrysler, shall I go on? Ok, Pinto, Ford, oops, sorry that was a low blow. 'Cuda, Roadrunner, Charger, Super Bee, Super Bird, GTX, cars you don’t mess with at a stop light. Mustang? After considerable $$$ you can get it to run OK but it will be forever chasing a Chrysler. Just my [2c]

49 Willys with 3/4 Merc Flathead, 533,000 miles.
1950 Ford Tudor, Flathead V-8, 483,000 miles.
1950 Ford F-1 Pickup, 396,000 miles.
TOC, miles TOWED don’t count, I thought you were talking about miles DRIVEN. My mistake.[:D]
(What do I know anyway, I ride a 35 year old British bike full of Lucas electrics…[:I])
[oX)]
DRIVEN.
Except for about 100K each had on it when I got it, I’ve put it all on.
Owned the Tudor for 36 years.

Believe me.The words ‘Lucas’ and 'electrics’do not go together!
Ok TOC, if you’re happy then that’s all that matters, that’s why we have vanilla AND chocolate ice cream! Hope to see you on the road someday!
You betcha, Troy, I had a small bit of corrosion on a connector the other day and the [censored] thing cut off on me in traffic. Not so good to be pushing a really cool bike. Got it fixed in a hurry, but my pride was hurt. I guess the ol’ Triumph was just showing it’s British roots .

Prince of Darkness.
You need three of them.
One running, one fixing, the other waiting parts.
That way you won’t be without.
1967 BSA Hornet 650
TOC, Boyer ignition and 6V PVL coils from Pazon ignitions cures 95% of Sir Lucas Lighting, Prince of Darkness’ problems. The rest you just live with.

Raeding one forum, I wonder if a certain control product was made by Lucas.
Some folks gotta have 3 to keep one running…
Hehe.[#ditto][:D]
I never post over here…but I couldn’t resist this…[}:)]
Wow…this topic got…off-topic…rather quickly!
Wow…all this from a bumper sticker. TJ…440, 727…360,727…awaiting new assignments. 81’ Dodge Ram extended cab short box. Currently hunting for a 64’ Dodge 2 door sedan project car. Parents had one when I was a kid. Also in the process of tracking my late cousin’s Super Bee. It’s either a 69’ or a 70’. The original selling dealer is digging. If by some miracle it is still alive I wi***o do a resto as a tribute to my cousin. Lotsa’ “ifs” in this deal but I am trying. On the train side of things the railway garden has been extended and will see a second loop come spring. That is all for now! Later eh…Brian.
