Message: <blockquote data-quote="Raido Free America" data-source="post: 3887690" data-attributes="member: 45328"><p>I had many neat hot rods, and muscle cars, in my wasted youth. '63 early Ford 406 w 3 twos, and four speed,  '63 Plymouth Fury 383, with 4 speed, a '55 Austin Healey  w/ a 327, 4 speed, and others. This was back in the 1960's, and I thought I was quite the Hot Rodder! Now I'm old, and finially have a little exrtra cash, so I got the bright idea I wanted another Hot Rod. I found a neat 1931 ford coupe, hot rod that had been on the cover of Hot Rod Magazine back in the 1980's. We went up to Kansas to look at, and drive, this car, This had been something special in It's day, and was still a nice car, that just needed some up dating, to be a good driver. These things are smaller  than I remember. My wife and I drove this hot rod down the road, looking pretty cool, and turned around, and I stopped on the shoulder to look  for leaks, after it got warmed up. I had to get in, and out, of this like putting on/off a coat. I must have been standing on the running board while backing out of this thing, and thought I was on the ground,  I fell backward flat of my back, right out into the traffic lane! Kinda knocked the wind out of me, but lucky there were no concrete truck close, that would have run over me. traffic was stopping, and people gawking, at a 75 year old man crawling around in the road, gathering up my cap, and glasses, then crawling back to the hot rod, so I could get up. I expected to see this on Youtube videos any day, but haven't yet! While I was wormimg my way back to the car, A thought occured to me, that I could be just a little too old to take on a new hobby! This pleased my wife greatly, but I always have had to learn everyrthing the hard way! This was a neat car! [ATTACH=full]314453[/ATTACH]</p></blockquote><p></p>
