No Iola for me.

Post by fourforty6pac » Sat Jul 12, 2008 5:39 pm

I had to miss it this year because my son and his wife are going to have my new grand daughter tomorrow. She wasn't due till late july but decided she wanted out now. Everything should be OK even with the early delivery. I'll let you guys know how everything comes out :lol: .
Now I will have to find another car to restore for her. Yippie

I also wanted to check out my (our) new garage. We built it so I know what it looks like but we didn't have time to side it so we subbed that part out along with the overhead doors. The old one collapsed from the 3 feet of snow that sat on it this past winter. I will post some pics of both of the new arrivals.

I missed today (Saturday), but my wife went and sold our 74 duster. She got a nasty burn, so I have to stay home and be a good dad on Sunday. I am sure Steve will post some pictures of Iola for us.....right Steve?

Thanks for the pictures Steve. It's nice to see a couple of cars I have not seen before. There was a sweet 71 GTX for sale in the corral (orange). Did you see it? I think they were asking 39 or 29, I didn't really pay too close attention.


I sure wish I could have been there on Saturday.

The 71 GTX was for sale by a real estate agent. I heard that he took the car as a down payment towards a house and was looking to sell it....would have been nice to have heard if it sold or not....my dad said it was a nice looking "X"....didn't personally get a chance to get out too much to check things out, but....
