2021 countdown

I had a 68 Comet with a 302. It was amazing. I didn’t take care of it and did stuff like jumping irrigation ditches and trying to bust snow drifts. I regret selling it but the guy who bought it fixed it back up might even still have it

I plowed down a row of mailboxes in my first 'Stang, Smokey and The Bandit style, with the cops trailing behind right after I blew through a stop sign without even touching my brakes. They never did catch me . That was the night I picked up the nickname GraveDigger...

"Then the man came along with the world's biggest shovel...."

Without looking it up it looks like an optical connector that you would find in an electrical control panel such as is used for line controls for machinery and equipment. Are those Line, Neutral and Ground symbols? 

Wago connectors are like fancy wire nuts. Lift a lever put wire in and clamp it down with the little lever.

Here's mine:

a boy's first time is is first love

first car I mean

OK maybe first beer ranks up there, too.


That 68 is my color but I had vinyl roof and the original tires.  When someone stole two hubcaps I learned that classic car collecting was not in a college budget (I bought four that fit from a 66 and stashed my two remaining originals with the matching paint strip bitch). The lesson came home harder when i slid on ice into some wook Galaxie 500 parked in front of VMI-- had to pay him $500 then go to Staunton get  a fender w/ emblems didn't match, dealer got me on bumper, gas went up sold my $250 'stang for a grand and got a Toiletta corolla. Made the buyer sit on the hood a do a shot of bourbon before I gave him the keys.

I used to drive a Mustang
'69 metallic green
But me and your mama made you in the back seat
So I sold it to buy her a ring.
