You can never have too many 66 Monacos...
I find it's a lot easier to just look for one era of parts... still hard to find that exact item, but I do believe the supply of parts will be the deal breaker someday when it comes to keeping our old cars on the road in the future.I've been preaching "buy it done!" and here I go and buy a project, doable, but it will be more than the initial plan, but isn't that how they all go? Took me about two minutes to figure that out, but yeah, it's a cool car. At least I know what to look for in the swap meets!

FIFYI've learned it will be a lot more than I told myself! I've already torn my car apart enough, and a couple parts cars, but I'm sure there's something I missed! Parts hunting will never end...

This is an all too familiar feeling, that I never get a car out of this unit long enough to get the truck out! Poor thing. I'm still working on a bigger space, hope to find out soon.
I was going to I tell her it was a birthday present to myself, but realized that wouldn't work. I'll figure something out.On second thought, just keep the car hidden until you find a good excuse.
Try years!"But honey, I told you 6 months ago that I bought this car"

No way that is going to work unless she feels extremely generous on that day... but I'd love to be a fly on the wall when it goes down.Try years!
Reminds me of a conversation last week.Try years!
Flew to PA for Carlisle this year... Flew in 2016, but to Indiana to buy a car I failed to mention...Reminds me of a conversation last week.
Her: "So when did we get a second station wagon?"
Me: "Almost a year ago, where have you been?"
women...lol.

On the bright side, I now know how to end the relationship and get an extra parking spot without all the awkward reasons...
(good thing she doesn't read these forums...)

2016 at the airport
Her: "I'm glad you decided not to drive"
Text while driving home
Her: "So do I understand this right... you're bring home another car?"
2018 at the airport
Her: "If you take my parking space, I'm moving"
