Mmm-Mmm

So the Old Man and I scoured some more classic cars today. Decided that what we want is a pre-'70's Nova or Camaro that runs and has a decent body.

Found a '69 Camaro today with new paint, side pipes, roll cage, and a 10-bolt rear; price? Insanely cheap. Only thing is, it needs a new carb. So if we want to drive it away, we need to either bring a trailer with us, or a new carb and install it before we leave.

Let me tell you something about classic cars that come with roll cages: they've been raced. A LOT. Yeah, it's never a car that's going to be on a Barrett-Jackson TV whore-fest, but it'll defintely be a car that moves faster than any car that's ever been on a Barrett-Jackson whorefest.

I mean, what's the point of owning a car that moves that fast, if you don't move it that fast on a regular basis?
