Do you annoy your neighbors by doing this?

I'll try to join you some time but it a helluva drive...
I was thinking more along the lines of Alan Richardson.
But that isnt the first, or second, time I've been compared to Joe
Fly in, you can drive one of our other cars.
I'm not proud - I'd drive a "patina" car any time. as a matter of fact I did before I restored the 70 Road Runner:There are running cars here but if you'd prefer to live on the edge, Hawk can jump into one of these....

The green kinda matches my 70!If Hawk shows up he can have his pick...

My tires on my 70 have aged out. They are not fully worn yet so I may have to end them to Valhalla as they exit...I drove both cars today.. Both are fun to bomb around in... Yesterday I put about 90 miles on the red car & did a pretty good launch smoking the tires through first & second...... Just cause they are nice doesn't mean ya can't beat on them some...
Heck, that's a given. What we need to do is drag you with us! But we'll be down there soon in the pictured blue GTX to get you...you can hang out here, and be home before the wife finds out you're gone... Bring Barry with you

it was 2.5 hrs there and 3 hrs home for me. Still made it home before dark and I was very tired, but it was worth it. Thanks KD and Rich. Great to see you guys. KD - also please post your new Torsion bar boot install method. It required 2 people, but it worked better than anything I've seen. Thanks for figuring this out on the fly!I'll try to join you some time but it a helluva drive...
I built my career in the bulk tanker business by being able to figure out odd unloading situations on the run, first as a driver, and later in management. The upside was a fat paycheck, the downside was projects that could run for two days with no sleep. Rail car derailments were the worst. No desire for that kind of punishment in later years.I used to get put on the odd jobs at work because sometimes, I was able to fix or change stuff in the shortest time with the least waste or damage to surrounding structure. My natural curiosity was an asset there.
I do miss that. I still think of returning to some part time.
