Mon Ami! Richard L'Rocket Barnes aka Le Rascal!
My Dad gave me his 54 Buick Special when I was 16, my friend down the
street had a 6, 3 on the tree 55 Chevy, double clutch it and it was Quick.
Dodge wise I loved the Suicide Doors on my 41, was that a Chicago Option for
Firearms use? I spent some time in the 60's buying Desoto 392 Hemi's, big
fin cars were cheap!
You must come to Jon's for the DML BBQ, The Jeep guys have a beer problem?
Jon's trees are not safe?
Jim Knox, 91 Dak 318 LA DRAG TRUCK, Daily Driver Please understand!, 96
Cadillac Fleetwood Brougham, LT1 Eng, undergoing Corvette Engine
Modifications, 57 years old needs stealth car, With Dakota Know How :-)
