    bouncing between 100 and 120. The Mach 3 made me look like I was parked.
    Those old Kawasaki triples were mean for a 500cc 2-stroke triple, it didn't have a throttle, it was an on/off switch.

    I think that 1966 & 67 had the most best looking cars of the 60's.

    No kidding! They were either full bore or stopped. There was nothing
    like'em. The original 'crotch rocket'.

    500cc was considered a big bike back then.

    One thing I remember about that LTD, the A/C worked so well that you could get frost on the registers on the dash.

    It was the same burgundy color as the one on this brochure.
    How cool is that. I really like mine I should have it going soon I will drive it to one of the meetings and show you guys some vintage muscle in a tuxedo body.

    No, it wasn't mine. It was built about 15 years ago and I sold it about 10 years ago!

    I think you were talking about the Village Idiot's '31. But, it came from Texas less than a year ago before being fixed like it is....

    Not an old car but my new one that I bought yesterday. Took it out for a Hill Country drive today. I figured out that this is much more fun to drive around the speed limit than it is to ride my motorcycle around the speed limit.

    At any rate, Prunette and I, Pruner, honestly and truly want to paint the '31
    black. We don't have a lot of money, although BO and Uncle Joe can't hurt
    us. We want to paint the car black.

    Please help us find someone who can help us get the car painted. We don't
    expect to win any competition, whatsoever. We just want to paint it black.

But, Hey I'm game if you are....do we have to sand it? do we have to prime it?.....I know the Mexican Market can get it done if he likes street Grafitti...I'll discuss this Saturday....(if Prunepicker shows).

    Really! It's starting to show, though. A little fading here and there...

    Hey, I'll pay you $20 to paint the car and throw in a hot dog! The last
    paint job lasted over 40 years, yours should too. Of course I'll hold you to
    it. I can see you and the Idiot (100+) repainting the car with Prunette
    holding you at gun point. Of course, I'll be dead but Prunette is too mean
    to die. She'll dig you up so don't even think about using that for an out...
