    Hey mangs! Im gonna stick around for a few

    Hey guys. Hope everyone is doing well. been long damn time since i made any posts. Just letting you guys know Im still alive and buying cars. Im still a scrapper. i still deal wid Crown Vics and lots of parts. I know the last time I spoke on here I was moving out of my dads house and renting. Well Now im back home... My grandma had a stroke and cant walk. trying to take care of her. My grandpa is still alive and doing well. My grandma is 65 and granpa is 67... My grandma has always been weak... Not really getting out much and depending on people to help her out. Well since the stroke and she never had any muscles before... now shes been down for 3 months and nothing but bone for legs. So I belive this is permanet... This done her in... So Im doing what I can to help out and living with them.

    No for my vehicles I have gotten rid of the banna boat... My fire dept wagon. also my 91 p72 is gone... I needed money and had to lay a deposit for rent and get power turned on so I slod them... Wish I hadnt... Cause I know ill never find another goverment issue wagon... Sometimes you gotta do what you can... But that is okay... I still have my 89 p72 and my 80 Tudor. I have finally got my tudor legal and im driving it.Ohhh and I also had flows put on it... Unbolted the whole exuast system and thrown it away. It is new from manifolds to back bumper. Also has a cross over pipe too... Sounds better going down the road now...

    I had listed a WTB posting in the ad... I am having some carb problem with it... When I first crank it it is over loading and smoking and runs terrible... I have to keep reving it to cllear it... I mash pedal to floor and its okay for a few seconds then bad again... It got so freaking bad one time that it filed out my plugs... would NOT start back... I had to change plugs to get it to start again... This happened cause it was cold outside and i left it. when I came back it ran awful and cut off... I'm not sure what the deal is with it but would like to fix it or just get a another carb. It is the VV style.... I called Advace Auto Parts and like to fainted... Almost 400 for a new one! hell no. I'll just go 4 barrel and use my throttle and tranny cables... But I dont have an intake. LOL... I have 2 Carbs and 2 351 performer intakes. lol. But no 302 intake. LOL

    But anyways hope I didnt take up too much of you guys time. I hope everyone is okay ad doing fine! And Brandon (ltdman83) if you see this let me know how your car is doing! I Would like to know. Hope your okay as well!

    And another thing... Tom do you have an app I can download on my phone? I got one of those touch screen deals from Att... I know I can just use internet browser to get here but didnt know if you had an app for this site.

    Thanks for your guys time! I will be seeing yall around!

      Hey mang, glad to hear all is well with you.

      The Mark VI is just sitting in my backyard, waiting until later this fall when I'm gonna swap a '91 T-Bird 302 HO motor into it, and start working on getting it roadworthy again. It has such low miles, it shouldn't need much beyond the basic stuff. The Marquis is scrap metal. The T-Bird is now out running/handling Porches on the road, and my F-150 is still helping to earn me alot of money. No plans to buy anymore vehicles currently.

      After I get the VI going, we will have to meet up and take some pics of our Coupes together.
