Anyone Remember Me??

I certainly remember you and your funny stories. Good to hear from you.

Hi, Merc:

I remember you.

As I recall, back in the days when you were a regular visitor to the forum (as I was) you worked at a UPS facility and didn't like it all that much. You also had some very dramatic stories regarding your various romantic relationships. Unfortunately, they never went so well and you seemed to be depressed much of the time. I trust your love life has stabilized over time and you're a happier guy, now.

I also recall that you had a fast, modified late-model Mustang and some vintage project cars. It would be interesting to know what you're driving these days. I remember that you were a racer at that time and did relatively well.

Many of us 'old timers' have moved on, to some degree, and don't visit or post as much. That's to be expected. No one's life stays exactly the same, forever. Still, I drop here in almost every day and occasionally post something, if I have a reason to do so. Your unexpected post gave me such a reason. Welcome back.

Ah, Its good to "Hear" from you all again.

Mr 5.0, Close, I work for FedEx Ground, and still hate it. But all is well other wise.

While life still overflows with interesting charectors, and even more interesting interactions; Life for me has calmed down.

I now have my own house (Which is a new hobbie, bringing back to life an 80 year old house), but the biggest and most important change in my life is I'm engaged! I've been with My Love for 2 years now, and were set to be married on the 2nd of June. She's great! Thats a whole other post in itself.

As for Mustangs. Still got them. Yes, I use to race my 2000 Stang GT, I havent for the longest time. Mostly due to me breaking rear end parts, and having a Clutch pivot in the transmission come loose. When the Pressure plate shaved into the clutch fork, that created all kinds of awesome sounds...Kinda like a Monkey Rapping The Tin Man in the butt.

Well, guess I should get back to work, seeing how I'm still here. Maybe I'll take a cigarette break first.

I look forward to posting much more again.

It is always nice seeing the old familiar names post up from my beginning days of the site.

Holy crap merc Im getting married a week after you. Was supposed to be the same day but my little angel decided to wait a week so her family could be here for it all. So you got any pics of that 30 nostalgia rod?

[Mercury]

My 30's nostalgia rod project was put on hold a couple of years back due to a blown engine in my 2000 Stang. It has not been started up since, due mostly to lack of time.

All I have is parts, 30 Model A frame (Actually two bad ones that I have to piece together to make 1 good one), some front suspension parts, steering parts, and other misc stuff. All Scrounged around from junk yards. I wanted to go really old school on it, and try to use nothing newer than 1962 , except of course for tires, wiring, and for safetys sake..probably brakes.

Hopefully when I get a garage built in the back yard I can restart that project, and actually start on some of the work.

I have been dying to do an era specific rod like that but finding anything in Oklahoma with decent sheetmetal thats worth building is getting harder and harder. I guess I will be ebaying something if and when I go old school. Right now I am just trying to focus on getting the bugs outta my 94. I found out that apparently the camber is off on the front end since I have a bald outside right front tire.
