Are you sleeping in a ditch tonight?

Do you have a brain tumor?

no, then shut the f*** up!


He was a heavy heavy drinker and a chain smoker; those deadly habits killed him off .........at 99 and made the last 15 minutes of his life a drawn out decline! (the day before he died he made his regular weekly walk to the grocery store, walking home with two bags of groceries in January.

I hope I have his genes!!

Back on topic I have had two 69 GP's with Champagne (both with black Cordova's and interiors) but I remember parting a 69 GTO convertible with Champagne and green top and buckets, it was strange looking to say the least. Champagne with black is a really sharp combo, I'd think twice about the green top and guts.
