Just wondering if any one else on here owns any good ole boy toys?
I have a '67SS Chevelle that I've owned since 1985 when it was just a daily grocery getter and kid and garbage hauler. Even took my beagles rabbit hunting by hauling them in the trunk when the truck was down. Restored it myself over a 17 year period of down time. Drive it weekly anytime the weather permits.
Also have a '02 Harley FLHTPI I ride often. Rode it to Sturgis, Key West, Atlantic coast beaches, Blue Ridge Parkway and Skyline Drive, and other shorter trips. Great riding here in the mountains.
Got a bass boat, and best of all.......a lovely wife that loves for me to hunt, fish, hang out, etc.
Anyone with similar interests out there?

I have an 08 Corvette that sits in the garage up on jack stands right now.
Its black in color. I have blacked out everything on it. The car came with grey wheels. They are now being powder coated black and the calipers are being powder coated red.

I have a couple of boy toys. A 1969 Shelby GT 350, and a 1996 Mustang SVT Cobra convertible. The Shelby is driven to car shows, and we use the Cobra for drives on nice weekends.  |

OK Timex you have me totally confused, which isn't hard to do. You have pictures of your bride from 40 years ago but your bio says you are only 35 years old? By the way I always liked white go go boots. ;D

Can't remember yesterday but do remember the hot pants. Camaro has a 327-375HP under the hood. My sons and I did a complete restoration on it, except the interior which is still original and in good shape.
Glad I don't have a Harley, I'd be dead now for sure.

Killer camaro and wife too!!
Still have both of them?
My birthday is in March also....the 6th.
Hey, I really like those shoes you had on Timex. LOL
My picture is of the wife and I in the church parking lot after we renewed our vows at 25 years. 1st time in 1985 we drove a '64 Malibu SS on our honeymoon.
Had a minor wreck in Pringle SD few years back when the back tire blew out at 75MPH with the ole lady on the back. Got down to about 15 and flopped it down.
A lady pulled out in front of us a year ago on our way back from Tibey Island and we hit her front fender at about 10 mph. How someone can't see a white motorcycle with three headlights at night I don't know. Luckily we were just bruised both times.

My son drove the Camaro on his honeymoon as well. Yep, still got the wife. Cost too much to get rid of her I'd guess.

Timex you are the same age as me. The clothing, shoes, hair styles, and car, brought back way too many foggy memories. That was why I checked your bio. lol

I traded my jeep for a 64 ford flatbed dump truck cause we are the same year and it was in great shape (unlike me). Does that count? Btw I'll sell it for $ 1400 I dont love it that much
