View Full Version : I must be nuts!
I had to run over to GMMG today to drop off some wheels another maro nut bought from me so I ran into Matt Murphy. Got to looking and talking about the Dick Harrell addition cars and the usual car stuff, but, I couldn't take my eyes off of the 3 Harrell cars that were sitting there in various stages. Blue, red.... wide wheels and tires....looks like a Can Am racer from behind.
The bad news. Matt's got a red one left. The only one. I love red cars. Especially red catfish with wide Fikse wheels and tires.....500HP.
There is a damn good reason why I don't need another hot rod. Somebody please tell me what it is. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif

Just buy it, you only live once, and you cant take it with you.. Plus when you do go, leave it to me, I'll take care of it. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/3gears.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gifMark
I like this line of reasoning. Why leave piles of money for somebody else to waste when I could do it myself?? People don't appreciate what they don't work for anyway. Works for me. Check's in the mail.

Have fun driving it, send some pics when you go open it up for the first time
I won't even get it until next spring or summer. That's OK. Everybody needs a little something to look forward to. Also must convince the little woman every garage space should have a car in it.

Your talking about a pretty nice car here,Just do what I did, wipe out the savings, kick that food grubbing family out in the cold, rev it up to 6 grand, let her fly and never look back. Astalavista baby http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/naughty.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
Only kidding, just rev it to 5 grand until you get use to it http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Redneck and I were talking and said watch out of I hit one of those PB jackpots for about 300 mil.
I will buy everything that I can buy and drag race them all!
firstgen - $300 mil??? Surely you'd put a little something aside for your car loving buds here at Yenko.net. Wouldn't you??? http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/dunno.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

Why of course we would have to have an endowment for the board to keep it running for perpetuity. 10 mil or so...No chance of it ever being shut down... plus it would allow the board to trustees of the board to aquire certain automobiles... to be used as the selling dealers intended... of course! The board would need to get non profit status though so there would be no taxes on all of the "new" assets!
I volunteer to allocate the proceedings.
Now certified. The little woman gave in. Hope the car is still available. http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif

However you talked the wife into it, you'll have to share your methods? . I could never seem to win those arguments so she said choose....and I did! . On that thought, here's a Friday afternoon ditty. . Have a great weekend fellas! ~ Pete
-
The wife's finally left me,
fancy dishes and all.
Now there's DZ's in the crock pot,
and BE's in the hall.
She told me she gets everything,
and I get the junk.
like that stupid thing in the garage,
that says Dana on the trunk!
She took all the pillows,
all the blankets gone too.
But I sleep better now,
with my L72.
Life would be better without me,
now it all would be fine.
So I pawned my gold ring,
bought aluminum, sweet L89?
She said I'd be sorry,
and had me over a barrel.
Just lucky for me,
she's never heard of Dick Harrell.
She emptied the bank,
and took all of my dough,
it's just me and the dog now,
.......and 9560!

There are several ways to get your way with the little woman. Depends a lot on the woman...they vary you know.
Never approach a woman with something she will consider "bad news" when she's not in a great mood. This, of course, may take quite a bit of time. Never hit 'em with a full frontal blow. Kinda sideswipe the issue on the first approach. You are planting a seed, not planting the tree....yet.
Next, you start the build-up for your purchase. You've got to make this car (it's always a car) sound like the greatest thing ever. A once in a lifetime opportunity (like the last one you bought). But, but, but, poor you will not be able to take advantage of this rare opportunity. Poor you. The next step is critical......time to stop....more later. It's cocktail hour! http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
