The 50 Plus Cafe, Pub, All-Nite Greasy Spoon and Dive Bar

My dad called and he wanted me to come over... so I went and we had hotdogs and Cole slaw.... my sister said she would go over Tuesday and Thursday to help and i would take the other 6 days... well she didnt do either...well she did show up last sunday at 5 in the evening and stayed for 2 hrs. she also did show up Wednesday at the restaurant for dinner after I and my friends helped my dad mow 2 acres and trim the evergreen tree (drag the leaving to the burn pile)....

So the convo where we talked and she promised to help me take care of mom and dad so I dont get overwhelmed didnt mean shit.... lesson learned

Edit: i am apparently pissed off but I will get over it
The angry emoji is for your sister the rest for you @Missk_2022 🙂🤬❤️😘 🫂 What a great daughter!
 
The dog is reacting somewhat responsibly...... Karen is clueless


60's chevys are my wheelhouse..... 66 Chevelle is one of the best designs in my mind ever.

I prefer the 55 to the 57 Chevrolet. I like the everyday driver designs that Chevy went for.

The Lincoln Zephyrs and Chrysler Airflow of the late 30s are some of the best styles ( any mnfr ) ever IMO.



I do like the '65 Chevelle.


I also like the '65 Coronet.


I'd like to get a '56 Plymouth Savoy coupe.


The 'rents had one and I liked it a lot.
 
Quick update before I hit the road. Momma is home but in a lot of pain. No narcotics with this procedure so only Tylenol. She’s in a lot of pain, so hoping this will subside. She has lots of help so I don’t feel so bad. Hope all had a nice Independence Day! It sounded like an artillery barrage in Vegas!

Elwell Ferry MZ…yes this thing is still in existence!

It was good to spend some time with the large poodles, and Daisy the huge Lab girl, and Fred the (former) barn cat. Fred bit me and clawed me. Goats are good, chickens are good, ducks are good, outside cats are good. This pair isn't very social. No matter. Machines are put away. Packing has kinda commenced.


Dipshits have fireworks. Poodles great and small aren't fans.


I'm hit the rack then . . . .
Fred Fred Fred..... what is the matter...are you out of sorts?

But she is ethyls sister...soooo
 

Original Owner Paid Big Bucks To Get All Options on His Barracuda, Selling After 60 Years​

Original cars that spent their entire lives with the same owner have become extremely desirable, and the owner of this 1965 Plymouth Barracuda hopes this specimen can sell for big dollars.
 

This 1970 Plymouth Cuda Is a Restored Gem With a Dirty Secret​

1751738380014.jpeg
Introduced a couple of weeks before the Ford Mustang, the Plymouth Barracuda was born as a pony and morphed into a fully-fledged muscle rig by the end of the decade. However, it didn't get the iconic 426-cubic-inch (7.0-liter) Hemi engine until 1970 (although Plymouth made a limited-run factory dragster in 1968).
 

Dealer Sells a Rare 1969 Shelby GT500 Fastback With 59K Miles, 1 of Only 68​

I've always said that not liking a Shelby is impossible, even if you're a Chevrolet guy. These cars had everything you could ever want, beginning with gorgeous styling and ending with the performance under the hood.
 

1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS 396 Hidden for Years Emerges As Stunning Time Capsule​

1751738912325.jpeg
When it comes to 1970 Chevrolet Chevelles, the SS 454 LS6 stands out as the holy grail. It packs the most potent engine of the golden muscle car era (the LS6 was rated at 450 horsepower) and is relatively rare. This red-on-red Chevelle is not an LS6, but it's a holy-grail rig when it comes to unrestored survivors.
 

One of 36 Known To Exist: 1970 Plymouth Hemi Superbird Seeks New Owner​

1751739115879.jpeg
Unhappy with how the Charger R/T performed on NASCAR ovals, Dodge created the more aerodynamic Charger 500 in 1969. The latter also failed to challenge the Ford Torino Talladega, so Dodge came up with the more radical Daytona a few months later. In 1970, Plymouth introduced its own take on the "winged warrior," the Superbird.
 

Man Buys Holy-Grail 1970 Chevrolet Nova SS, It's a One-Owner Time Capsule​

1751739276882.jpeg
What's your holy-grail classic? Is it a rare and expensive Hemi-powered Mopar? Perhaps a second-gen Chevy Camaro? Or are you more of a Ford Mustang guy? I'd probably go with one of the orphan brands, but I'd have a hard time deciding between a Studebaker, a Nash, or a Hudson. Whatever rocks your boat, I hope you find it and buy it someday. Just like this guy did with his holy-grail Chevy Nova.

I’m a Ford guy and a huge Torino fan. I’ve owned two of them and still have our 1970 Torino wagon.

I’ve always wanted the Torino GT version. Bad ass muscle cars! Ugly and beautiful.
