I met Randy on the day before thanksgiving. He found an old craigslist ad I had selling a date coded 289. I just about gave up selling it thinking of destruction as a GM guy I am, tho son of a Ford guy.
When I met him I was so happy I got it to the right person. What a super nice guy. He was gwtting ready to deliver a Boss Mustang 1969, 302 car to it's owner. To say we were impressed is an understatement. He told me he restored 17 Thunderbolts on top of numerous other significant American Muscle cars.
I now have a Nazy Crate hot Wheels car I bought off E Bay.
My friend who owned the engine was very happy too we sent it to the right guy.
I spent my commision on my GS 455. lol.
Chris.
Thank you Drake for all the great stories.

Hey Chris...U...should "know" there are 8 million "stories" in the naked city...'eh...after all these years...certainly have "accumulated" at least a few of 'em...

...not all "fit" for a public (PG/rating) forum...Ken would most probably ban me for life

...not to be "biblical"...but for sure...I am truly blessed to have been a player during a golden era...forging genuine friendships/alliances with some very special "cats" over the last 50 plus years...always have said...I'm a very "lucky guy"...way grateful it all "went" that way too...'nuff said!
