so after being unemployed for 6 months, moving to a different state, getting in a wreck and a couple less than happy run ins with the cops, my luck has changed...got a job today working in a shop that restores classics and does regular repair work too. there is a 1970 Cuda with a numbers matching 440 6pack a 1968 SuperBee and the 1967 actual Shelby GT 500 should be back from the paint booth in the morning... oh and there are two Fairlanes a 1968 red Chevelle SS and a Pontiac 1970 GTO sitting in the storage building....there is a God i get Paid to enjoy myself at work.. oh and the boss is so pleased to have a muscle car enthusiast hanging out with him that hes gonna let me take the Cuda home for a weekend car show thats coming up in January. i know its a Mopar and not a Ford but it'll still haul some serious A$$ and attract the pretty ladies too lol ill post some pics tomorrow afternoon plus hes letting me use the shop to do whatever i want to on the Ranger. lol just had to express my excitement tonight

 

Congrats on the job!

 

sounds pretty bad *** man

 

yeah the boss let me drive the Cuda to lunch with him today.. more than one cop raised the eyebrows at me lol and i only went 4 miles. hehe im a sucker for anything with a Big Block V-8

 

Honestly, who isn't? LOL

 

X2

haha sounds awesome man! a buddy of mine is workin in a shop like that out here called wicked fabrication... Congrats on the job!

 

thanks guys. i was litterally starting to panic yesterday about finding a job. next day it all works out

 

Gays.

Congrats on the new job. Dont give the cops a reason to F with you.

 

Chevy guys.. There all over small blocks.

 

Congrats on the job....Its weird that customs are selling for more than numbers matching.

 

kudos. good luck with the job. if you enjoy your job you will never work a day in your life.

 

eh you get the rare big block chevy lover lol congrats on getting a job during these times!!!!

 

you want an assistant?

 

the Cuda and one of the Fairlanes is numbers matching but yea a custom job is worth more to average joes cause it "looks cool" to us gearheads a factory original car is worth its weight in gold

 

congrats! glad to hear someone is having some luck.

 

Congrats man! What model is the Fairlane? We have a restored 1957 Fairlane. Just wandering what yours looks like.
