Jan,

This is the second post I read by you today without proper punctuation. Seems like a problem a few members on the board have. Next time I'm in scottsdale, I'll stop by and give you punctuation lesson.

On a transatlantic flight, a plane passed through a severe storm. The turbulence was awful, and things went from bad to worse when one wing was struck by lightning. One woman in particular lost it.
Screaming, she stood up in the front of the plane. "I'm too young to die," she wailed. Then she yelled, "Well, if I'm going to die, I want my last minutes on earth to be memorable! Is there anyone on this plane who can make me feel like a WOMAN?"
For a moment, there was silence. Everyone had forgotten his or her own peril. Eyes riveted, they all stared at the desperate woman in the front of the plane.
Then a man from Texas stood up in the rear of the plane. He was handsome, tall, well built, with dark brown hair and hazel eyes. Slowly, he started to walk up the aisle, unbuttoning his shirt, one button at a time. No one moved. He removed his shirt. Muscles rippled across his chest. She gasped.

He said, "Iron this -- and then get me a beer."

I love my bumpers... a great sit and rest place.
Use them for a picnic table... and as one friend
said... if your caught without a toilet?

I think they enhance the car and make it special.

Almost every thread seems to take several turns. I have to admit, I have changed the course at least once. lol

Just like at many other car shows, they jsut raise the body on the built in hydraulics and off they go. That pics was taken at the NSRA Street Rod Nationals event last year. All cars must be drven into the event site. While some are trailered, the vast majority of the 15,000 street rods are driven to, from and around Louisville.

The point was to show that MANY cool rods don't have front bumpers.

Rich - the 32 was either the winning or finalist for best paint award - sponsored by PPG.
