they picked the car up yesterday around 6,
I should be seeing it tomorrow, finally!





And once delivered!

rolled the windows down when the car was delivered and the passenger side would not go up, plus the weather was starting to get bad so scottie put it in his shop,
and fixed the motor yesterday but
while a few parts where on the floor the dog ran off with the little side view mirror cover and ate it!
yep, so he's got another one ordered!

now this!!

always wanted a teal one.

Actually the Black is my favorite - I would gladly own any of the colors and not be picky.

looks good Mike. You gonna cruise up to Iowa in that in August?

[Toyz]

Mark, it's way to early for Mike to even know what he'll own by then!

LOL, ya I kinda was thinking the same thing, the stable doors may have swung a few times by then

[stronger66ratfink]

alright! alright!
so you guys know I like cigars, miller Lite and trying my hand at finding every Ford ever made!

but this is it,
Really
this... is... it!

spent the morning in -50 degree weather hand picking ice off the car and then cleaned it up
and got the tags so I'm good to go.. where ever!!

oh this is the best, I got to take the protective clear plastic off the radio face!
the original owner had left it on there.. now where did I put all those cassettes!








and it's George approved!

[Hoofbeat Racer]

hand picking ice in -50. Man even us crazy canucks wouldn't attempt that

[stronger66ratfink]

my wedding ring fell off but first the boys fell off!
still looking for those two frozen jewels!

but I got it cleaned up!
had to go in the house and get hot water in a bucket

[Toyz]

Looks like George is about ready to test the finish durability once the hot water dries.

[stronger66ratfink]

not just one but all 4
every time I turned around he was moving to the next one!

I may just leave him outside in the freezing cold tonight for that!

Stunning car Mike!

BTW, you missed one,
maybe you could have grabbed this while I had it for sale;

[stronger66ratfink]

just realized they put the wheels on backwards when I had the new tires put on!

[stronger66ratfink]

wheels on correct now

[Alan Mclennan]

low and behold right there at a shop is a 65 Slick!
