My 12th Vehicle

This is my 12^th vehicle. I purchased it in Pelham Georgia for $200.00 back in 1975. It is a 1951 Ford F-100 pick-up. All  original down to the 8BA V-8 flathead engine. The 8BA engine was more durable than the V8 that came in cars. The car engines were notorious for running hot and cracking the block. A dog could relieve himself on the left rear wheel and it would crack the block my dad used to say. Anyway I used this truck for a good while. When I started working tall high tower power lines traveling all over the country I went in this. It was cool to go down the interstate and turn heads all the time. Especially being in places like Mn. with Georgia plates.  Yall have a good day now. Ya heah.

My 11th Car - Can you say " Starsky and Hutch" - 1974 Ford Torino Grand Sport

This was my 11th car. All of you that are old enough know this car very well. There were tons of these sold. I found mine at a dealership in Atlanta in 1975. It had a twist to the paint scheme though.  Mine was black with a red stripe. Leave it to me to be different, plus the dealer was having trouble selling it due to the color combination. As was a good thing for me. I loved it. I was working construction at the time building the Proctor and Gamble plant in Albany Georgia. Good times then. I was young and single and has no cares. Went to Panama City Beach a bunch of times in this car. The prettiest sand of any beach I have ever been on and I was on a few including overseas. Yall have a good day now. Ya heah. God Bless

My Ninth Car - 1966 Dodge Charger...got this on out of sequence..how could I foret this one.

This was my ninth car...I almost forgot about it...how could I forget about this one..I purchased it just before I got out of the Air Force in 1972. I was stationed at Moody Air Force Base in Valdosta Georgia..I saw this sitting in a yard with a for sale sign on it and out of curiosity I stopped just to see what they wanted for it. To my surprise the price was only $200.00. But it did come with a catch. It did not have a title...in Georgia you did not need a title for a car until 1963 but this car was abandoned. Probably because of all the military moving in and out of the area...but I took on the task of getting it titled in Georgia...which was no easy endeavor...I had to got to the Sheriffs office and they took the VIN number and had to run a check on it and after a six month waiting period I had to take it back and the officials had to stamp a new serial number on it...after almost a year of exhausting red tape I managed to get a tile for it....it was definitely a Hot Rod...I drove it hard and it gave me good service under my heavy foot...will the cherish the memories, good and bad, while I owned this KEWL car....yall take care now ya heah...God Bless
