lol i say any of the fixed or repaired daily's = F.O.R.D would be for sale in fact i think the datsun is worth the most anyway lol by the way
Love the Chevy Mario Great taste

I had a feeling that the fastest on race day (ford) would get picked on especially when posted in a chevy forum LOL
problem with the Datsun is its old and there aren't many left, if I sell it now I will be in the same boat as Mario .
example:
I sold my XB GS ford Fairmont coupe ( mad max car) for $30k about 10 years ago in mint condition, wish I never did.
now look at what they cost now....
If I use this example of how much the datsun will go up in value , do you think I could use the future cash to extend the shed now...

its a long shot .

See the Found on Road Dead (Ford) made good car many years ago but anything after 1988 is exactly that fixed or repaired daily but the datsun could have value but who knows I got my money on Mario this Race

Mario I forgot to mention, depending on where I pick up my road runner I might take you up on the offer of collecting another speeding ticket.
one of the stipulations for the plymouth , it must be a 426 hemi and 4 speed on the floor.

Hey now! If you can afford a Hemi 4 speed, shipped from North America, you can afford to add on to your shop without selling something else.lol

I know the feeling. Been trying/thinking of selling my 83 buick electra park ave. has 78k kms on it and fairly loaded. It's very new feeling though. its like stepping back into the early 80's!

Once again though it barely gets driven. Gravel roads to work = NOPE! And now I have my 73 F100 that is a go anywhere vehicle so it gets to go to work and that just makes the park ave sit even more...

Hey, is that one of those buicks with the spring loaded front grill that can collapse inward? Always loved old buicks. Growing up a friend of mine had a 65 wildcat with the 403. Red exterior with white interior, what a beautiful boat of a car that was. :)
You know what they say, nothing worse for a vehicle than letting it sit for long periods. :cop:;)

Re: I sold my baby today.....
 
I am in the same boat but for different reasons ..i have my 85 Toyota 2wd xtracab in my garage and my 1972 Lincoln Mark iv(California car) in my driveway...i have had zero time to finish the little work i have left to do on them .And it seems i cannot find anybody to do the work for me ..nobody is in to the classic and older vehicles especially if they are not muscle cars ...well my lincoln has got the 460 cu 4 barrel carb and puts out 365hp stock the way it is ...lol...Anyway i am at that fork in the road...do i sell one or both or? It is a very hard decision to make ..time will tell....anyway mario...you are not an idiot ..just a man with a plan:D

I would keep them you never know when spare time arrives . My hot rods are a 1945 Farmall cub needs tranny work and a 1947 International A my convertible . Every once in awhile there happens to be a Saturday afternoon that I don't want to play trains trucks or grandkids out come the wrenches and rebuild something on one of them . Mike
