Burning up the last of the good fuel, last Sunday afternoon:
Nothing like a 442 cruise into Stillwater, MN. in the fall. Stopped at a friends, and he snapped a pic. Lover, not a fighter, this ride, but, the boy always asks "Dad, can you make the Oldsie sing?", wanting me to can it, so he can hear the secondaries open up and enjoy the sound of a 400 cubic inch American pushrod V8 doing it's thing. I remember thinking to myself that every year I light it up in the spring, drive it a few times in the summer, put it away in the fall, and it has never acted up. It has been extremely reliable, and was running beautifully in the cool air last weekend.
Mom ain't crazy about acceleration.
It is an ammunition thread, I put ammunition in the trunk with the Darnes when I hit the gun club with the car!
Time to put it away, soon.
Thanks for the memories, you guys, some of which, I still get to play with, today.
Best,
Ted
