Forget the trailer idea buy that bad boy

 

So how many times the jeeps have to pull you out

 

Your license plate is kill.

 

zero

 

It's almost as flexible as gumby

 

An '88 I built on the cheap. Cranked up torsion bars, 33's, welded rear gears, 22RE 5 speed, I did a SAS, multi-link rear spring shackles, super dependable and super cheap to run. I had the cab and bed off the frame 3 separate times. You can even see how I combined 2 wrecked cabs to make 1 good one (cheap). I sold it for $1,500 because I needed $1,000 fast to cover lawyer fees. It sold in less than 2 hours. Lol.

 

What was the charge? Possession with intent to distribute?

 

I've always loved that body since Back to the Future

 

A 1956 Chevy Bel Air 2 door hardtop my dad and I built. 265 V8, factory 4 barrel, manual 4 speed swap, 10 bolt positive swap, factory power windows (2nd year available), and factory A/C (1st year available). I had to sell this one due to the same lawyers fees as well.

 

Damn lawyers

 

My dad and the car when the 2 door was his and my 4 door Bel Air hardtop that I was still restoring at the time. It looks all bent because it's a picture of a picture.

 

Lol. No actual charges, just accusations of being a wife beater and a child abuser. I sold almost everything I owned to beat the accusations and get custody of my son. I'd do it again. Sold the bed, dressers, some kitchen appliances, dining room set, a couch, the TV, you name it if it was mine and not my kids I sold it. Kept my clothes, PC for work, and a couch. Hell yeah, I won. Son became a veteran and is now making more than my brother in law who's been a plumber for over 30 years. My son isn't even old enough buy liquor yet. Hell yeah I won and so did my son. I can't wait to see what's in his future.

 

i was gonna say tax evasion the IRS is relentless

 

Man, that's awesome. I'm glad to hear that he is doing well. Talk about love, you gave up so much for your son and I'm glad to hear that it paid off.

 

A Ranger I bought new and immediately cut up. Custom hardtop converconve, dropped I beam front axle myself (a job Mor Drop of Oakland, California, said couldn't be done, Mor Drop was a Ford I beam specialist). I did so much to this little truck. Outhandled my mom's brand new at the time Z28, got 34 mpg highway, with a huge stereo system and a stock bench seat that went all of the way back. I did the drop on the I beam axles while I was out at sea in the Navy in my off time.



First convertible Ranger on the planet, second lowered Ranger on the planet beaten only by Hot Rod Magazine in cooperation with Ford Motor Company. I would have done it first but I was stuck out at sea and couldn't put the truck back together. Lol

 

My dad's current classic ride. It was his sisters who got it new as a wedding present. He dreamed of owning this exact car for decades. Less than 50K miles, never wrecked, never in the rain!!! Original shot out spare in the trunk!

Bought some Indonesian blacks. They're my favorite

































I only smoke on special occasions (esp if I black out) foreign cigarettes are so much smoother than our American cancer sticks
