If it's a cabriolet it's the Chevrolet Bel Air 55' otherwise Chevrolet Bel Air 57' 4doors HT. Would be nice with a more modern engine and gear box. I do like a lot of different american classic cars. The muscle car era is awesome. Maybe not so much of the early 60's. Hot Rods on the T-Ford modells around the 30's is also awesome. And mid 30's with all metall bodys. If I where to dream LOL.

The prices is very high even on those in not so good conditions here in Sweden. It has been a hughe market to import them here to Sweden the last 10-15 years. So even that has been with a quite high price of them. A car like this Olds my friend has is around $12k-$14k in the condition it's in. Where it's a lot to do but still running LOL. Don't know what kind of price range it where to be in the US?

It's also a gamble to import them as even if it's looks good on pictures. There are hacks out there that will be doing anything for quick bucks. Have seen a lot of very bad restorations where they have bought it for premium prices sadly. So the contacts with the importer is important to have to not get a wreck in disguise. And that he has great contacts in the US too.

I'm interested in woodworking and ordered ****recenty. I found reviews and decided to buy one for home use. Today I started making new wooden table. Hope with new tool I'll finish all work in a week.
 
Ugh.....

Woke up at 2am, had a coffee, and went to work.

Headed out with an F-350 Lariat and drove to Lexington, Virginia to pick up a Platinum Explorer.

740 miles round trip. Trip wasn't bad as a whole. Great scenery In Maryland, Delaware, etc.

Only Crap part was hitting NYC at 2pm on the return trip. :(
 
Painted a new grille badge for my 4Runner and gave my center caps a make over.











 
Well Somebody by this

Bought 6 new arrows for my bow. Gonna try and give away the others from my last bow.

Looked at the new Mathews vertix...drool

As well as the Hoyt rx3...it doesn’t impress me as much but still nice but also $600 more for a bare bow

Want to shoot both in the next month so I can decide my new one and make sure I get it ordered correctly

Leaning to Mathews so far

Have been a car meet in my little hometown. American Muscle cars was the cars that meet up. Before it was just only Corvettes but last couple of years it's been all muscle cars. Didn't have the energy to get down there. But a lot of them drives through the little village I live in Sweden. So have seen some great cars driving through today. Seems like the Vettes has been less of them coming here now. Maybe cause all muscle cars is allowed now LOL.

Is it for hunting or target shooting you use your bows Minerigger? One of my nieces target shooting with the traditional wood longbows. Reminds me that she wants me with her sometime shooting.
 
Got shot at by my son.

He's lucky it was just paintball :)

Made the 4 hour drive last night so I could come help pack my mom up to move her to a senior living place about 2 miles from where I live at the end of the month. Coming back out here in 2 weeks for the week and having an estate sale and finish packing. So glad we could do this in August in Texas lol

Been there, done that, still have some of her **** in my basement to prove it. Mom though is happy as a clam in her senior living place. She’s busy doing something every day of the week and at 84 is still sharp as a tack and relatively healthy for her age. I hope your mom will be as happy as mine is. :xyxthumbs:

No not at all and back in February it was 6 degrees one day. We get the best of both worlds plus 2 weeks of fall and 3 weeks of spring. December 1 2017 I remembered going shopping in shorts and 2 days before Christmas we got a dusting of snow.

I have been trying to get her to move close since my dad passed away 4 years ago but she didn’t want to and I couldn’t force her to. Back in April she fell out of bed and laid in the floor for 12 hours before she could call 911. Spent a week in the hospital and 3 days in ICU. About 2 weeks before that she forgot she left a skillet on the stove and had a small kitchen fire. Her best friend and I finally convinced her after that she needed sell her house and move close to us. I am my moms only child so it’s all on me to make this happen. My parents were in this house 28 years so it’s a lot to go through and she isn’t comprehending she is going from 1500 square feet to 600 square feet real well so it’s a battle at times. I have taken the little bit I want.

I definitely think she will happier closer to us. She can see my kids everyday and there in more to do in Norman/OKC than in this dying little town she lives in.
