knightfan26917 3 Report post Posted September 30, 2016 * Been a while since I had time to visit; living life, or so they say. I am alive & fine, just handling & juggling a lot currently: health issues, health insurance changes, personal projects, professional obligations, trying to figure out a way to do more of what I really want to do while I still have time in this life, etc. I sure miss my cars & some people, but I am doing the best I can in the moment. I hope to be able to participate regularly again soon. Meantime, sharing a few new things, FWIW. I start with something I recently wrote: a short murder mystery story that simply flowed, surprisingly sparked by a rather insignificant experience. (I already have some ideas for a sequel-continuation.) Cars included: 1975 Caprice Classic convertible, 2005 Mercury Grand Marquis, 1991 Ford Crown Victoria, 1976 AMC Matador sedan, 1974 Dodge Monaco sedan. If interested, people tell me it takes ~1-1.5 hours to read; I explain the inspiration in the Forward: http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/09/08/dont-forget-schuster/ Love the creative mind of my Nephew with these scenes he has created; this includes KITT & the General Lee: http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/09/19/monday-night-fun-73/ With summer 2016 in the rear view mirror, what are your favorite memories &/or huge moments from 2016 & all-time? http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/09/13/daily-dose-trivia-tue-72/ I took this photo just over 3 years ago, while driving my former 1989 Caprice Classic Brougham north on I-39 in IL! Considering the local radio stations kept playing songs from my life that road trip, I figured it was perfect for what I quipped ~1 year ago: sometimes, surprising songs fit the moment perfectly: http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/09/18/daily-dose-savvy-sun-72/ I have a scale version of the GMC Motorhome; do you know this history!? http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/09/23/friday-files-73/ Side view of a Dodge Challenger a friend, Mark, built & detailed! Almost looks like a 1:1 car? http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/09/28/wednesday-ratio-74/ THIS is a moon-sun roof, on a Mercury Sun Valley: http://www.oldcarsstronghearts.com/2016/09/27/twist-tuesday-74/ Cort, www.oldcarsstronghearts.com pig&cowValves.paceMaker * 1979 Caprice to MGM + 81mc "How can life be what you want it to be" | Madonna | 'Frozen' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
