Pull over! Oh, that was in 1972 when I had a 61 Econoline (no windows to see into) and long hair.

It's what you learn after you know it all, that counts...

Are you living to work, or working to live?

The start of a recent convo while getting gas:

Dude: What year is you van?

Me: 1979

Dude: Right-on bro! I bet you can pick up a lot of ladies in that.

I get "Are you ever going to finish it"??? It has been in my garage for the past 5 years working on it so it is just family and friends who see it. I bought the van 5 years ago and it had been parked for 10 years. Spent the first year just getting all the mechanicals fixed. Then I started with the body work.....every time I got close to paint I thought of another body mod to do and the last two took me forever (tilt front end and gull wing front doors). I truly am getting close to paint now!!!

I take it many have not seen a 4x van before ..... went to Costco for gas, OMG damn every body in line got out of there car & truck to come & look at it. One guy asked if was for sale, had his check book out lol, yep it sure is for 50 grand. His eyes lit up. Later I saw him on his phone, probably tryin to talk his wife into it ... lol

Went to Home Depot when I came out there was a crowd around it .... another 20 minutes later.

Went to the smoke shop & the owner made everybody that was in buyin smokes go outside so he could look at my van .....lol

Went to several places & the same thing happened..... the people I met today didnt need to say any thing ...

Just got it,so it's still a blank canvas. But so far it's been "What a Moose". I think that might be what I name it. "Le Moose".


Einstein, when describing radio said "Wire telegraph is like a very long cat. You pull his tail in NY and he meows in LA. And radio works the same way: you send signals here, they receive them there. The only difference is that there is no cat."
