A Horse With No Name

House next to me they bought for 200k roughly before prices went up. They dumped 80K plus into changing it even though it was in pristine shape. She (owner) wanted something different. She owns a few pizza resteraunts that make a good bit of change, and can afford it. Just because you don't expect to make money back out doesn't mean its a bad use of money. Green car for you if you don't like EV conversions. This is bio friendly...

This blue looks especially good. Balthy, I like the Jeep, but like the flares on this Bronco far better. Since I am a butt man, rather than a boob man or a leg man...the rear view.

That arguement works against any type of specialty vehicle construction. Dollar for Dollar, Corolla or Sonic would be your best bet. You want to play, you got to pay. I would argue a 70 Mustang Coupes resale value, dollar for dollar, peaked in 1971. Everyone (almost) that I know in the Mustang community really likes playing with the newer stuff. A 70 Mustang Coupe is probably going to have someone (wrongfully) leaning against it at a car show while they ogle a 2013 Boss 302 or a 2020 Shelby. Or a K code 66 fastback, or 69 Mach 1. But you will get far more positive attention with the 2020 Shelby or the 2013 Boss 302 (at least around here) than you would with the 66 or 69. 70 Coupe converted for electric is a personal vanity purchase for personal pleasure. Were you to have spent money flying on the concorde, it would have been for the experience. We don't judge people for spending big bucks on a flight that is over in 3 hours, why judge someone for spending 50 grand they will never see again on an EV conversion? Hour for hour of enjoyment, the EV conversion is much cheaper than the flight.

Everything is absurdly priced as of late. Not a political post, jsut a lament.

I love this. I could see converting all kinds of ICE vehicles with this.

Retro Green and brown show exceptionally well on both of those...one more random vintage Ford truck picture.

70's square body Ford products just absolutely had the look. This is killer.

50 plus years later, the mid sixties Pontiacs still take my breath away. Partial to the GTO, but would love a full size. This GP is amazing. Cool vintage pic for you as a thanks for posting this up. Lots of Osha violations there, wonder if that dude ever went blind from lack of eye protection.

Let's do Teal Tuesday, I posted the Road Runner, will end with this Cadillac.

Today's funny... This car just has the look. I could spend all day looking at this. This is cruel but funny, actually.

Neat retro paint job. Not sure if I like it or not, but it is creative. Same guy, then and now. Ohio Jeep Association. Another Bronco picture...

Exactly. Love this turned form

Once again Kermit gets it right...

64 Sport fury convertible.... https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/2283668441961569/?ref=browse_tab&referral_code=marketplace_top_picks&referral_story_type=top_picks&tracking={"qid"%3A"-7524001152403227250"%2C"mf_story_key"%3A"1075535563416529187"%2C"commerce_rank_obj"%3A"{\"target_id\"%3A1075535563416529187%2C\"target_type\"%3A6%2C\"primary_position\"%3A0%2C\"ranking_signature\"%3A8752767311976333312%2C\"commerce_channel\"%3A501%2C\"value\"%3A0%2C\"upsell_type\"%3A21%2C\"grouping_info\"%3Anull}"}

Old Woodworking machine pic for today. Thanks.

Aslo, hey Balthy.....can't figure out what car this is. Icon just finished by my friend Nicholas... This was cool, in Fort Lauderdale historical society museeum... Friends on a WV trip... Rover, Jeep, and New Bronco in Cactus Grey in Fort Lauderdale on Los Olas. Also from my Florida trip.

Interesting, My sister Katie loves her Escalade but wantws to trade it in on a Bronco 4 door when they become more available. She is a powerful attourney so methinks she can afford to do just that. Sometimes the times of trasition are the most frightening. I am sure you are man enough to handle it with aplomb and protect your family. Godspped, sir. If Oldshurst was a Bunny....

Austrailian edition Ford Bronco, Walalby or kangaroo. Baby is safely in its mothers puch.

We had plenty of different iron back in the day. Neat pic. You will be in my thoughts, good vibes coming from Columbus Ohio.

Impressive

I freaking love black cats Hell yes Life is too short. I used to keep salt water and fresh water fish. I could live another thousand years and never get bored. I had a co worker have a block of frozen urine come through the roof of his house while he was in the shower. Scared the puss out of him. See...you don't like 4 doors but in my high school days putting 6 teens in a car and cruising around in a four door hardtop on a summer night was killer. Easy access to the back seat for other activities was icing on the cake.

Road trip! Headed off to Florida for a few days so I may not be around much....

Every time now I seea Charger and think of you. They are especially badass in the rear view mirror at night. Love the look of those headlights after dark. I like a few of the Wrngelr colors. If only I hadn't just pulled a 5 year loan on a new Ranger. Actually, I like the Ranger better than the Wrangler, but would like a Wrangler or Bronco also. They would be perfect for a Diaper service. I love this. As the song says Balthy..."I love old pickup trucks..." This is hot!

I love old Gassers. Olds pic for today, for sale on FB marketplace. Clean! Not a Tundra fan myself! This gneration Silverado really growing on me. Chris

One more retro pic, off to West Virginia for the weekend.
