This thread has taken off...........all about selling and age.............Well a thought.........as I have just turned 62..........Sell off all but your favorite.........restore it and then drive.............I know some aches and pains too..........but you keep going.  It is a lot harder to get up off the floor now that it was a few years ago......but you do it..........

Some Humor.
What deep thinkers men are...
I mowed the lawn today, and after doing so I sat down and had a cold beer.
The day was really quite beautiful, and the drink facilitated some deep thinking.

My wife walked by and asked me what I was doing and I said 'nothing'

The reason I said that instead of saying 'just thinking' is because she would have said 'about what'.

At that point I would have to explain that men are deep thinkers about various topics which would lead to other questions.

Finally I thought about an age old question: Is giving birth more painful than getting kicked in the nuts?

Women always maintain that giving birth is way more painful than a guy getting kicked in the nuts.
Well, after another beer, and some heavy deductive thinking, I have come up with the answer to that question.

Getting kicked in the nuts is more painful than having a baby; and here is the reason for my conclusion.
A year or so after giving birth, a woman will often say, "It might be nice to have another child."

On the other hand, you never hear a guy say, "You know, I think I would like another kick in the nuts."
I rest my case.  Time for another beer.

If you sold off all but one I was meaning. I see them for about 2K around here. I'd love one but my garage is not tall enough.

 :iagree: and that's pretty much my situation. When I get up off the garage floor and hear myself grunt, I say "it's great to get old", because the alternative ain't so great either. At least you can drive your car- mine's still in pieces! Spock said it- 'live long and prosper" .  :cheers:

The hard part would be deciding which one to keep. The obvious decision is the cuda since it`s running/driving and I`ve had it since `82 and restored it myself but I really want to do the road runner. I had one years ago and it`s a real RM  FC7 383 car so it would hurt to let it go unfinished.
