Sorry to read it bro. All I can do is help keep this at the top. Good luck

 

Thanks man. Think there's a wal mart within walking distance... I might be ok.

This sucketh a really big one :/

 

bttt... (maybe bad idea) would vise grips hold the old one together?

 

Pieces of wood, wire, duct tape, shoelaces, floormats, seat springs. Where's Mcgyver?

 

Thought about that. Don't have vise grips. Gonna try and drive to Wally world. It's less than a mile. Figure I can buy a drill there, drill out the holes in this piece of steel and I should be ok I think.

 

Lol I'm the king of MagGuyvering shit. Had to convert my Lincoln to an electric pump on the side of rt80 2 weeks ago when the fuel pump took a shit.

 

Btt.... Good luck man...

 

Isn`t it fun?

 

Made it to wal mart. Got drill. Got 1/2" bit. Going back to gas station, use their outlet. Make bracket.

We shall see... Haha!

 

back to the top for someone to see good luck

 

Going up! Top floor!

 

Bracket made. The Ford is down one spark plug wire bracket.

Now to install.........

 

Bracket in. I was supposed to be at girlfriends 2 hours ago. Girlfriend beyond furious.

Girlfriend hates my old cars. Girlfriend wanted me to put big chrome alloys on my Lincoln. Girlfriend hates whitewalls. Girlfriend wants me to drive a camry.

Girlfriend is so pissed off about this that she is ready to break up with me.

This was so fucking worth it

 

Hope it all works out . Being broken down sux !

 

And I never thought I'd say this but....

Thank god for walmart! There was one half a mile away... If there hadn't been one I'd have been screwed.

After you find a fix for your Ford, start looking for a new Girlfriend-one that appreciates that you appreciate old cars!

 

^this.

 

Happy ending!!

 

Into the sunset, our hero rides! Cool!

 

How was all this HAMB chat carried on? Laptop or some wamogizmo cell phone deal?

 

When I brought home my '47 Plymouth Coupe, my now fat, bitchy X said it was the last straw.
I'm never sellin' that car!
In fact, I think I'll waddle up to the garage and kiss it goodnight.

 

Well fat and ugly girls aren't usually that mean, so she must be...

 

Take it from an old guy who has been around the block a few times.......This is as good as it will ever get with your GF. If she is like this now, you have no idea what she will turn into when the ring gets put on her finger........you have NO idea !

your girlfriend sucks. i got mine to run out the door at 3am while she was making me dinner to bring me a can of gas since the gas gauge is broken in my hearse. oh and she like my old car and my hearse

 

That's all right, the make up sex will be worth it...

 

Girls come and go, but cars are a mans best friend...(and his dog too!!)

 

Glad you got your car fixed. Now about your girlfriend, as my one friend says "Women are like a carpet, if you lay them right the first time you can walk on them forever"
