This is a cool time of year as the fellas are pulling out their cool cars, cleaning them up, and putting them on the road.

Show em if you got em!!!!!

Here's mine. 68 Fury III. It's no hot rod but it's awful fun to cruise around in. With the exception of her wheels, she's all original. This includes all the trunk stickers and safety stickers under the hood.

1991 Z-28, 5.7L TPI. This is not mine but mine is just like it, color and all, and pretty much in that same condtion (always garaged, never seen snow, barely seen rain). Gettin' up there now, I think it's close to 40,000 miles.

Here's mine, had it for 31 years. Was pretty beat up when I got it.

New fenders, new quarters, rebuilt 350/350hp, rebuilt turbo 350, 3.55 gears and all new suspension parts. I did all this 29 years ago and she still looks like this today.

Iffin I had the time, I'd like to finish off the interior nicer and do a 4 wheel disc conversion.

My '56 Chevy Bel Air. Had this car since I was 14 years old. Saw it sitting for sale one day while I was riding the school bus. I had some money of my own from selling cattle, so my parents let me buy the car. Had alot of fun over the years going to car shows, parades, and using it for my wedding. I don't drive her much, she's seen less than 2000 miles in the past 17 years.

This is my 72 Chevelle. We originally got it in pretty rough shape and did a full restoration in our garage, from sheet metal to paint. The engine is a built up small block that I had stashed away from when I drag raced 30 years ago

    • Sorry to hear that Duff. Will give my GSP's an extra scratch behind the ear for you guys today
    • Aw, man, sorry to hear that.  Shed some tears and remember her well.  They all take a piece of our hearts with them; some more than others.
    • yes sorry for your loss..  our dogs are always special...
    • Truly sorry to hear that duffman! I know that feeling.  Keep the good memories  
    • Chamois passed away this weekend a couple days short of her 13th bday. What a great dog to hang out with here at home and on distant adventures. Gonna miss ya big time my little big girl.
    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
