66 fairlane but the flowtecs had two tubes hit the firewall had to cut them out and re
route them. fixed the brakes had really weak brakes we replaced everything last year

Very nice, Heo. I get to see those sunsets from 38,000 feet. They are stunning. However, other than harassing my flight attendants I don't get to ride with beautiful women often in the right seat on the flight deck.   Enjoy!

Very nice Heo!  This time I got to see actual cars and water  ;)  Those Caddy's are very cool and unusual!  That was when GM was really trying to be the best in the world...

So post a picture of you water skiing!  I'll show you mine if you show me yours.  I just spent some time up in Minnesota, and I gave the new titanium hip a good workout on the lake  :)

I also got to spend some time with Jay, which was a real treat.  Expect good things in the near future on the cylinder head project!

You (and your dog) are living your best life!  I'm amazed at the variety of cars you have around you.

As for doctors, I haven't told my hip surgeon about the adventures yet.  I see him in three weeks  ;D
