68 tex vair OIL LEAK DAMN # ^##
Another Texas Vair , sure these lads like to get across the border, they know where the hook-ups are. Recently brought to me, this 68 ragtop in need of some major attention. It seems that it has not been touched since it first rolled out of the factory, except for some cosmetic work, as usual, many folks will go for looks first. Like I always say,if you are gonna start a project, start with the mechanical first. Looks can wait. What's a good looking car if you can't freaking drive it ? I will keep posting pix of the job in progress. Keep them rolling, peace out !

That doesn't look so bad compared to some I've seen. At least the bolts won't be rusty !

I like a wide variety of music, including Rock, and also Roll. Alog with heavy metal also.
That engine looks nice.
Wish you were closer, you seem to be a interesting INDIVIDUAL, would be fun to meet you I can tell.

You ain't that far, next time you come down this way, you 're welcome to stop by. I am not far from Fort Smith , AR, just follow the oil trail, you will find me, LOL.
By the way, what do you think of UFO, no, not that kind......I'm talking about the band...they rock. Check it, peace out !
PS: are you a FBooker ?

They rock out, remind me some of Bad Company. Ive realy been into Mellencamp and Lynnrd Skynrd alot lately. Saw Skynrd over the summer, believe theres only 1 og member in the band still but they rocked out big time.
Going to see Alice in Chains next month courtesy of a friend that I bought a ticket for to Skynrd. Cant wait for that, saw them at Lolapalooza in like '95, played Rooster while the sun was going down, wont ever forget that, a great moment in my life.
I didnt realize you were in AR, was thinking you were further west. Used to get to Memphis alot, not anymore though. Loved hangin there.
