Marriage is the strong proof for love

No, usually just in the chat session we talk for a bit and so soon they ask for cards or money. Just a bunch of them unemployed broke girls looking for a sugar daddy I guess. I reply after we meet maybe I can support her? Guess how well that goes over? Lot of "Karen" types on here.

Been here for 5 yrs. Met none for a date. Unbelievable how many just demand money or cards within the first day of chatting. I have drove to meet 6 women. None were ever even living at the address they gave me. Was texting them with my progress along the way also. My experience is this site is full of scammers
It sounds like you have your phone number if you were texting. Did that ever cause you any grief ? Do you use a special phone or number ? Some say to give your number is no big deal, some say it is.

When I finished rebuilding my 383 in my Road Runner I decided to take it out and see what it could do.
The fact it had absolutely no brakes at all didn't matter to my 16 year old self.

Late one summer Wednesday night, actually early Thursday morning (3am), I had my buddy follow me in his 69 Goat.
I pegged my speedometer and my buddy said at 140 mph he pegged out and I was leaving him behind. I figure I was doing about 160 mph with no brakes. I used my gears to slow down. Luckily the highway was recently paved and the night was clear and bright.

I had a well-tuned stock 71 Challenger with a 4 speed and a 340 4bbl that could lift the front wheels. I had to buy traction bars so I didn't burn the rubber off my L60s.
Sadly, I rolled it one rainy night and ended up having to total it. But, I did make a killing selling parts to my Lancer Club buddies.

Had a 68 Cougar when I was in the Seabees, also had a 78 Thunderbird at the same time. The T-bird was my mellow car and the Cat was for the rush.
Sold both of those for more than I had in em...to other Seabees.

Had a 68 C-20 Utility dually that I converted to a flatbed with a winch. That straight 6, three on the tree (which I converted to a Hurst floor shifter) just wouln't die. 12 years later I sold that to a shop co-worker. You just bump the key and it started.

I had an old junker F-100 I drove till it dropped, 7 years and NEVER changed the oil. Just added used truck 15w40 oil when it needed it. That started with a screwdriver but all ya hadda do is bump it and it would fire right up. It looked like hell but it ran good. I put decals on it like fleet truck unit numbers, on each end and both sides. I had an 8 then beside that I used two 1s to make an arrow pointing up and I called it my 8UP truck.
I spray bombed it and purposely ran the paint on each door. I would tell people who asked how it runs, "Just look at the Door, it RUNS Good!" The defrosters sucked so I fabbed a duct out of an old brakeline tube, then duct taped it to the vent holes, hell, those defrosters worked better than new and they were fun to talk about. LOL, one work buddy was following me and I hit a bump and he said a chunk of my truck fell off, hit the pavement and bounded into the ditch. LOL, That truck was Phun!

Paying cash for cars then selling them at a profit allowed me to have many cars during my life. Some were fast, some were phun but they all did what I bought them to do. Plus, I've had people just 'give' me cars they couldn't get to pass inspection. Since I had an inspection license, not a problem for me.
One guy (a neighbor) got mad as hell because the Lesabre he gave me, which he couldn't get to start and run, I fixed with a battery cable and a lil creative wiring. Got it for FREE and sold it back to him for $1200, inspected. Bwahahaha!

I always wanted to build a custom 4WD Cadillac Hearse with a Coffin Trailer which is actually a kegger fridge and cold sump for cases of beer.
Put a converter in the Hearse and cut the sides so they lift up revealing massive loudspeakers. The bed would be just that, a bed with a minibar and mirrors on the roof.

Then, Take THAT to some river parties! Oh Yeah!

I was a professional wrench for over 30 years but I am now disabled.
Even tho my passion remains, my body can't comply.
Plus, being disabled, I an on fixed income and I live in an apartment duplex with no garage.
I still have most of my tools but its so bad, I can't even change my own oil anymore.
Hell, I put air in my tire the other day and could barely stand back up!

BUT, I have a lifetime of knowledge and experience and I've owned more than 5 muscle cars, rebuilt a few project cars and associated with gear heads and wrenches since I was an early teen.

My first project car was when I was 15 years old. It was a 1967 Road Runner with a 383 cowl injection, four on the floor.

Some people like NASCar or OWR but I was always into modified stock. I did a lot of street racing in my early twenties.
Nearly every friend I had owned a project car or had something tore apart in their garage.
I knew every junkyard owner by first name and always got really good deals. Once got a 400 big block for $50. Slapped it in and it ran like a graped ape!
My current truck was priced at $3100 and after I tore into it and started telling the small lot dealer everything that was wrong with it I got it for $1500. Plus, I made him get it fixed and a fresh inspection. I've had that truck for going on 12 years now and barely needed to fix anything. Bump the key and it starts. It is getting long in the tooth tho. 2 years and I can put antique plates on it. Has over 250,000 miles on it.

I pay cash for my cars. I don't want to pay off a dead horse. The only car I bought on credit was the oldfamily car but that was a dealer demo with only 2800 miles on it and when I gave it to my X, it had 300,000+. I had it for decades.

In high school I was in the Lancers Club. Lancers was a car club. It was sponsored thru the school clubs and restricted to school rules (during school hours on school premises). We sponsored quite a few river parties and keggers on our own.
We also did car shows and main street creeps.

Recently I was surprised to find myself in a main street creep in a small local town near my current residence. It still happens!

I used to uncap my headers on my Chevelle and do main street creeps. That throaty motor roar would echo off the buildings, Glorious!


It IS A Good Topic!

If you are serious about dating .. be realistic and don’t put all your hopes on mingle .. Continue to increase your social networks locally

The forums for me are just entertainment.

Keep posting. There are a lot of fun, amazing ladies here!

cussing out and confrontational behaviour ain't tolerated on this site... we have watchful and intelligent Mods.... and they are not all on a cruise at the same time !!!

are those any good ... Samurai I mean !!
I did like their bikes , but I had a Honda to ride when much younger ... but no loyalty to the Honda brand .... unless it was a two stroke generator ...for camping !!!

i was always loyal to the domestic cars ... chevy , dodge , plymouth crysler and my favourites Oldsmobiles .... but when the imports got cheaper i switched to the Camry from Toyota and now Its Mazda ...
i always will remember my first Dodge Aries "K Car "... she was a reliable 4 door sedan .... if I did not wipe out on the highway that first winter .... i would probably be still driving her ... ha ha!!

is this where we beat each other up over loyalty to car brands?

Yup , I miss my old Chevy Lumina V6... she was a smooth ride as any , but when gas prices went up to near a dollar a litre , it was time to to get a smaller Mazda3... a basic with no frills ....

Agreed!

But I don't think the cars will disappear in your lifetime. There will be car meets long after we both are buried. It's the fuel stations that'll stop it
