I can't really say my memories were good or bad. I as the Chief Engineer had to be on guard all the time we were in the river as the demands on the engines & thrusters was very high.

I would be envious of the people in the bars enjoying a cool drink and waving to us as we passed by. I also would snicker to myself when I thought an exchange between Drew Carey & Mimi when she told Drew that she had been "Partying on the Flats the night before with some Sailors off a Canadian Freighter and she thought she married one eh!"
LOL. "Cleveland Rocks"

My understanding is there is more. But it has fallen into the wrong hands of a family member that wants to keep her brother from getting any more of it.

Supposedly millions of dollars in vintage and rare cars.

Cars were meant to be driven... can't let them rust out to death!

Your 429 is rare indeed... it has taken a beating with good old father time, but man, still a beauty - enjoy it!

Not my car.

Belongs to a guy who is part of a large dairy family in the area. A couple other cars I have been showing here lately and another that is yet to come belong to him. The one yet to be posted also belonged to another guy who is part of a family that has been in this area for 3 generations or more.

Stay tuned.

I think it counts just fine. It does have wheels, after all.
Really? Anything with wheels? How about my modified lawnmower, souped up with a motor from a power sprayer?

I wanna see that!

Edit - the photo did not come up when I posted... I see it now - that, my friend, is a true mower.

Works for me, but the disclaimer is that I am NOT a moderator and could be overruled at any time.

It's okay if you call it a 4 wheel land hovercraft.
