This one was my FAVORITE...

Actually I did wax the paint off the hood by the ram air...;)


Poem Artwork

Dark green, never dirty,

Always a sheen, with girls flirty,

I damn near waxed the paint off,

The damnable carb always did cough…

 

She was my most favorite,

Burnouts I did on hometown streets,

Slid in the rain cause tire tread was thin,

Inside & out she shined, this one above her twin…

 

A 351 Cleveland engine with factory valve tap,

High performance plugs & distributor cap,

No accidents this time, though fast she was,

Sold her for a hundred bucks, what a sap…J

I sold a '65 Mustang fastback for $75.00 because she left me stranded one day. Many a time have I kicked myself in the but for that stupidity. How was I to know it was gonna be a classic.
