Hey I even had one of those brand-new FORD CAB-OVERS (after being busted in IOWA (I oughta went around) for being over-length. It had a 13-speed w/a splitter...what an improvement over the old 15 spd double-shift. It was a piece of s**t.
You were just WAY out of my league!
No I had the fastback, not the Mach 1. The Mach 1 had 3 dash gauges and a hood scoop I didn't have that defined it. The rest was the same. Oh and the paint job with the mach 1 lettering. :-)
The fashion business tends to be soft on totalitarianism for aesthetic reasons. There's something attractive about all those uniforms. By contrast, ordinary people having better lives doesn't have much aesthetic appeal. Indeed it can be a disaster stylewise.
The funny thing is that the businesses that are most concerned with luxuries and materialistic pleasure, like fashion and entertainment, are the quickest to find "greed" in other people.
yes!
what about the brand-spankin new ones? (emphasis on "spankin")
those are GREAT

A company, feeling it was time for a shake-up, hires a new CEO. This new boss is determined to rid the company of all slackers. On a tour of the facilities, the CEO notices a guy leaning on a wall. The room is full of workers and he wants to let them know he means business! The CEO walks up to the guy and asks, "And how much money do you make a week?"
A little surprised, the young fellow looks at him and replies, "I make $300.00 a week. Why?" The CEO then hands the guy $1,200 in cash and screams, "Here's four weeks pay, now GET OUT and don't come back!"
Feeling pretty good about his first firing, the CEO looks around the room and asks, "Does anyone want to tell me what that goof-off did here?" With a sheepish grin, one of the other workers mutters, "Pizza delivery guy from Domino's.
An elderly Italian Jewish man wanted to unburden his guilty conscience by talking to his Rabbi. "Rabbi, during World War II, when the Germans entered Italy, I pretended to be a 'goy" and changed my name from Levi to Spamoni and I am alive today because of it."
"Self preservation is important and the fact that you never forgot that you were a Jew is admirable," said the Rabbi.
"Rabbi, a beautiful Jewish woman knocked on my door and asked me to hide her from the Germans. I hid her in my attic and they never found her."
"That was a wonderful thing you did and you have no need to feel guilty."
"It's worse Rabbi. I was weak and allowed her to repay me for my efforts with her sexual favours."
"You were both in great danger and would have suffered terribly if the Germans had found her. There is a favourable balance between good and evil and you will be judged kindly. Give up your feelings of guilt."
"Thank you, Rabbi. That's a great load off my mind. But I have one more question."
"And what is that?"
"Should I tell her the war is over?"
I loved 13sp with a half splitter. Easiest transmission to drive. Well back then at least. :-)
And ford W9000/9050 was popular as all heck. It sure had more room then the internationals.

I remember crawling up Parley's Summit, Cajon Pass, the Sisters etc, etc, with my Cummins 350....then one of YOU guys would come blow my doors off. I always figured you were empty.
Who are the goofs with Mr. Reagan?
