Senile Old Fart saying Hi guys !
« on: September 11, 2016 - 07:40:59 PM »
Hi guys and gals,I came across this site while looking for information on installing a 5.7 hemi into my 72 Dart Swinger.

 I am retired from working in the trades for 40 years, millwright & pipefitter. Married the  better part of 43 years to the same bride. Have a couple grown children and 5 grand children.
Currently living in the sunny state of Arizona.  Lived in eastern Washington for 61 years.   

This website appears to have a great amount of knowledge doing the hemi restorod swaps and that is where I need Help!  I have no idea about this electronic controlled stuff, I grew up on magnetos and points and condensor ignitions and leaky carbs, lol.

Thanks in advance for all the help   :cooldancing:

Welcome. What part of eastern WA did you call home. I still stomp around there during the summer time, then head south for the winter.  :cheers:

Welcome from California  :bigsmile:
Elderly Humor
An older couple were having problems remembering things, so they decided to go to their doctor to get checked out to make sure nothing was wrong with them. When they arrived at the doctor's, they explained to the doctor about the problems they were having with their memory.

After checking the couple out, the doctor tells them that they were physically okay but might want to start writing things down and make notes to help them remember things. The couple thanked the doctor and left.

Later that night while watching TV, the old man got up from his chair and his wife asks, "Where are you going?"

He replies, "To the kitchen."

She asks, "Will you get me a bowl of ice cream?"

He replies, "Sure."

She then asks him, "Don't you think you should write it down so you can remember it?"

He says, "No, I can remember that."

She then says, "Well, I also would like some strawberries on top. You had better write that down cause I know you'll forget that."

He says, "I can remember that, you want a bowl of ice cream with strawberries."

She replies, "Well, I also would like whip cream on top. I know you will forget that so you better write it down."

With irritation in his voice, he says, "I don't need to write that down, I can remember that." He then fumes into the kitchen.

After about 20 minutes he returns from the kitchen and hands her a plate of bacon and eggs.

She stares at the plate for a moment and says, "You forgot my toast."
