A 75 yr old man stopped me today
« on: July 07, 2009 - 11:32:31 PM »
I was in my Barracuda picking up my ring file I loaned to a machine shop. An old man in a red truck stops me in the middle of the road and says to me while he was shaking and talking low

I have a 71 dodge challenger convertible setting in my shed I bought brand new. It is yellow.  Horns were honking behind us and so he gave me his business card.  He is a taxidermy.  I think he wanted to sell me his car or something.  He did notice I had a pistol grip and made comments. I will have to check this lead out next month :2thumbs:  Maybe just to buy and sell it tho. Here lately, everyone seems to have a challenger. They are getting to be like belly button cars now.       BARRACUDA

Sounds cool Alan.  Let me know also if you decide to pass it on or maybe we can go look at it together which would be so cool to do.  Gordon

Al, don't let this guy anywhere near that Challenger!
He's a known Barracuda guy, and it's no secret that he is heavily armed at times, so when he says he might like a shot at it.... :scared:

Well it will be hidden untill I get back. I got the show this weekend and 3 weeks around New Orleans before I get to have any time to myself again.   I will go see it all by myself. Dont want anyone stepping on my toes on any leads. I will let everyone know the outcome in the near future
