Ghoste if you're coming down to the big D we should have a little get together.  I have yet to meet Tuffy and would love to meet you as well.  I'm not far from the Tuffster.  Heck maybe more members could join in.  I know 6pkrtse is in Milan which is real close.

A nice early spring meet maybe?  Depending on how Tuffy's prep and paint job goes.

I'm getting tired of being the only mopar on the road, we need more muscle dammit!   :D

Good idea.  The next time I plan to be going into Detroit for reasons other than catching a flight will be the WPC swap meet but if I am across the river for some reason sooner than that, we should do it.

I was actually thinking about the swap meet but didn't think there was one in Detroit this year.  If I'm wrong then yay!

I'm excited about rounding up a group of SE Michigan members and doing something.  :2thumbs:  We can have a get together in my garage....[light bulb going off]  Hey, I might need help pulling an engine... :D  :cheers:   The beer at Tuffy's house flows like water. :icon_smile_wink:

I can confirm.  (do NOT, however, make enough noise to awaken Mrs. Tuffy on a worknight because she WILL make you be quieter ;)  :lol: )

Sounds like a good story to me :lol:

Hmm, there isn't much to be gained by details really, just that he is an excellent host and she doesn't take any crap.  :cheers:  (and I'm a year overdue for a repeat visit)

I remember being kinda drunk and eating roast beef sandwiches at 1:00 in the morning (or sumthin like that). ;)  

Ghoste

Lol, yes I believe that may have been the tipping point in disturbing Mrs. Tuffy from getting a good night. :lol:

Nothing except ... I mounted some used rims and tires for "rollers".  The good wheels are down the basement.

Wow Tom, I haven't been on much this year and missed this. I'm sorry to hear all this but glad you will have an even more awesome ride. :2thumbs:

I got my car back from Dave, (actually last month. I drove it directly to storage from the shop.) Palermo's more than met my expectations. As you know my 73 is the same situation as your car, I had the same issues regarding getting it repaired. I am extremely happy with the the result.

He da man!!!

I buy this seasonal holiday brew over here called mad elf, its 11% and dosnt take much to get you pretty hammered. Last time i was working on my car with a bud drinking, we got half way thru the job and were just too drunk to continue. Next day i had to re-do it all anyways.

Moral of the story?

None really.


Good luck Tuffy!

Boy I can relate to that. Seems like once I get to the fourth beer the work seems to stop... But I'm good up through the 3rd one!   :lol:
