Ryan, you nailed it. I drive my old cars whenever I can, and when the kids are along they're in their car seats & belted properly. We live in a...

As a displaced (misplaced?) SoCal boy, I admit jealousy... Looks like a blast! Thanks for posting.
Our '62. Purchased by my grandparents in '63. Now with a mild drop, Lincoln wheels & customized center caps. Otherwise pretty original so far....
What a great trip! Thanks for sharing. I'd love to do something like that after the kids are grown & out... :rolleyes:
Slightly OT, but @ Jim Stabe - holy cow. That's some MGB build! As a 20+ year owner of a '67 B, my jaw is still on the floor...
Good friend used to say that sometimes it's just simpler to burn a little pile of money in the driveway in front of the car. Kinda like a burnt...
What Bishop said...been there, done that. There might not be money involved now, but there'll be plenty later... Unless you've got a large stash...
Black one on the left - Packard? Looks too good to be just settin' there... Wish I could save that one. :(
Beautiful!

There just aren't words... Lost mine in '08 unexpectedly. I can't say you really ever get over it, but the pain gets less raw over time. May...
Great find! Part of me would be tempted to get it running & cruise around just like it is... but that probably wouldn't last long. ;)
Take wife & kids to dinner & a movie. Oh, and the rest toward all-new brake system for the Bird.
Very nice! Thanks for the info.

Now that's a sweet little truck! Hope you get it...

May you and your family find comfort & peace. And thank you for the reminder...life happens when we're distracted with other junk.
