Alabama thread!

I repainted it a very similar color with some pearl in it. It really turned out nice but I was too young when I started. Once the header flange broke and I couldn't find a replacement I gave up and parked it in the back of our paint booth. I'm sure I will have to go back through the carb and no telling what else. Once I decide to get it going again.

I want to say it only has 8000 miles on it. The original owner's dad bought it for him new and it was last tagged in 82 if ircc

 

Bad day for this guy at Stony Lonesome

 

Dayum, an Escalade at Stony? Must have more dollars than sense.

From the videos online it looked like an old guy. My first thought was some rich kid ruining moms grocery getter lol

 

please post lol

 

I lied, it wasn't a video but here's the guy lol

 

That’s great! He’s probably got one of those YouTube channels that destroys expensive vehicles and has a billion followers.

 

I want that year b/c I was born in 79

 

And.......Imma need some pics

 

Nice bike!

 

Oh yeah that's pimp. Do Phil and I need to come over and help?

 

Goodnight everyone.

 

Morning everyone!!! It’s Friday!!!

 

Good morning y’all

 

You better watch it! I never turn down help.
I’ve got at least two things going on that hold priority over the bike. I’ve got to finish up the addition to the house and I bought an old ambulance that I have almost finished gutting to turn into an rv. It’s down to tracing wires and then I can start building it back.

 

From AlabamaWX

COLD START: Temperatures are in the 20s over North Alabama early this morning, with low to mid 30s over the southern counties with a clear sky. Expect a good supply of sunshine today with highs in the 50s and 60s… right at average values for January 27. Birmingham’s average high today is 55. The weather will stay dry tomorrow with a partly to mostly sunny sky; seasonal temperatures continue.

RAIN RETURNS: Clouds return tomorrow night, and Sunday will be wet with periods of rain and possibly a thunderstorm statewide. There is no surface based instability, and no risk of severe storms. Rain amounts Sunday will be around one inch for most places; temperatures will be generally in the 50s.

NEXT WEEK: Showers could linger into Monday morning, but a decent part of the day should be dry. Then, we will deal with periods of rain Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday thanks to stalled surface front nearby. Some flooding issues could develop in this wet pattern before the rain ends, but no severe storms are expected with a cool, stable airmass holding in place. Drier, colder air returns Friday with a clearing sky. Highs for most places will be in the 50s during the week… See the daily Weather Briefing video for maps, graphics, and more details.



ON THIS DATE IN 1922: On this date through the 29th, a significant snowstorm struck the East Coast from South Carolina to southeastern Massachusetts. Washington, DC, reported 28 inches of snow. The heavy snow on the Knickerbocker Theater’s flat roof put a significant strain on the structure. On the evening of the 28th, during a showing of the silent comedy “Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford,” the building collapsed, killing 98 people and injuring 130 others.

ON THIS DATE IN 1940: Alabama was locked in a severe cold wave; the north half of the state was under a heavy blanket of snow. The snow came on the 23rd and 24th. There was more than a foot in parts of North Alabama. One inch fell as far south as Montgomery. Bitter cold followed the snow.

Birmingham was covered with 7 inches of snow. There was ice skating on the Black Warrior River at Birmingport with ice on the river four inches thick. The ice was seven inches thick on creeks running into the river. The Cullman area was very hard hit by the unusually severe winter storm. Over a 13-inch blanket of snow the Cullman temperature plunged to a bitter 16 below zero. Anniston was buried under an 11-inch blanket of snow

 

Good morning everyone, hope everyone has a great and blessed day.
