| our local Police dept had their abandoned vehicle sale today, the old lady...oooops...I mean the loving wife had to work it. a 2005 Silverado 4x4 went for $325. had the typical rust over the rear fenders, other than that it was a good looker, and the buyer drove it off the lot after putting a battery in it. 3 of the dept's old police cars sold, 2 crown vics brought $300. each and a Imapla brought $750. and newer VW something brought $2250. it was a real nice looker, all mentioned drove off the lot after the sale. |

Yep,,,lookin like I did miss out on some good deals up there in Blair, USA,,,,,,  But Good Buddy,,,I've made a resolution some time back to NOT take in any more projects til I clear out the ones still here,,,,, Ya see,,,I been very busy what with some "new" projects I ain't mentioned,,,like a 30 ft by 20 ft lean to that I built with some metal rafters I had bought at a yard sale bout 6 months ago to get out of the sun,,,roof coverin is some "R" panels I had bought at yet another yard sale,,,,,Now,,I'm lookin at closing in the north, south and west sides to stop the dang COLD winds we been havin,,,,, Then I been workin on one of them 100 CC Chinese quads for the Grand Son. The PO had made a friggin mess on the wiring , so I cut all thet chit out and started from scratch and just wired up the startin circuit, the kill switch and the rectifier for lights and charging. Finally got it going and the Grand son is having him a ball,,,,he ain't figured out the "governor" yet , tho,,,,  AND,,,they is some others but I'm bout to fall aslee,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, more later,,,,,

It’s a “Shame” you didn’t buy that Silverado. I’d of been on that like Bernie Sanders on your pay check. |

You pulled the same stunt last year,,,,,,,,,,,,tole us AFTER the sale. You gotta tell us the sale is comin UP and we'll tell you how much you can spend on those gifts you're gonna give us. Did that Silverado have a snow plow on it?  ------------- "Allis-Express" 19?? WC / 1941 C / 1952 CA / 1956 WD45 / 1957 WD45 / 1958 D-17 |
