+1 for making Edd China a verb.

Right with you dude. If I was going to do a project car I would find one that I might actually find parts for and care about.

I had my car in for repair at CarMax for an extended period of time.(Not CarMax’s fault. The Ford dealer they had doing the work was the issue.) During that time CarMax gave me some loaners, many of which were Journey’s. I wonder how many of those purchased were fleet or rental cars?

The Dallas Cowboys’ quarterback during the strike was Kevin Sweeney. When the Danny White took over at QB after a couple of games I remember watching the game and hearing fans chanting:

I find this the moral equivalent of Baseball cards. Baseball cards were small pieces of cardboard that you could trade or put on your bike spokes to make noise. Then people discovered you could make money off them and decided to buy them new and never open them, in the hopes that the price would eventually go up. I…

My kids are now 19 and 17, both amazing. I went through this years ago and came to the same conclusion.

I am going with NP on the idea that yes, putting it up for sale at $4k is a viable starting point. Don’t expect to get that much money for it though. At $2K or maybe $2500 this could be a viable project or errand runner/throwaway project.

I was beginning to dig this up until I read:

Great project if the price was better, but overpriced as it is. Plus, it needs to come with tighty whities so you can dance like Tom Cruise in Risky Business.

Although I don’t completely disagree with you there are some things that Twitter is still useful for. The National Weather Service local offices are very active, as are several local municipalities and police and fire departments. Twitter is often my first notification of impending bad weather or updates, or traffic…

A buddy of mine’s parents bought the sedan version of this car when I was in high school. They got the version that talked. We tried to use it to pick up chicks. Alas, having a car that tells you your lights are on was not enough to overcome our natural limitations with the ladies.

Makes sense. Thank you.

Someone help me out here. Why would water destroy the engine? I can understand it not running, or running rough, but when he says ‘it let go’ that makes me think that it exploded. Maybe there was just enough gas to fire but it was mostly water so it overpressurized? Like water injection but on a more massive scale. I…

CP for me because I don’t have the time/money/skill for that level of repair. For someone in a different situation, I can see this being a great project.

That’s right, I don’t want no damn gubmint tellin’ me what’s safe and what aint. Besides, if I have a seatbelt on I can’t get thrown clear in a wreck. That happened to my buddy Cooter in his ‘72 Chevelle just before it blew up. Only reason he’s alive right now.

Full Disclosure. I went to TCU (long before Dalton) and am a huge fan. I have signed Dalton jerseys. I love a good underdog.

+1. If a loser whines in the forest and no one reports on it, does anyone really care?

The reality is that we all want you to buy it so that we can read about your misery without actually having to take part in it.

The absolute worst was a horrible case of poison ivy all down my chest and abdomen. Someone convinced my mother to make a paste of Epsom Salts and water to slather on it to ‘dry it out’. Talk about excruciating. I would rather just have my skin ripped off.

I remember that incident. Amazing picture.
