Bingster:

Red is not allowed because some California bureaucrat saw a rat die while swimming in that red paint.

happy hooligan,

Just saw your site and noticed you have an old Bronco! I'm a fellow bronco lover myself, having had 6 of them over the years. hard to find them with uncut fenders anymore. funny how a lot of us collect many of the same things.

I fell in love with the Bronco probably about 20 years ago. Took me about a year to find an unmolested one... It literately was from a little old lady in Pasadena... I bought it about 6 years ago.

She had one of those old label maker sticky tapes on the dash that said "Happy Hooligan" so that's what I call the truck and my name here...

Do you have a Bronco now?

"Do you have a Bronco now?"

I havent had one in about 7-8 years now. I wouldnt mind getting another one for around town, but most I see for sale lately have been FUBAR.

So today I put on my WE Bell system 302 on my site. It need a really good polish and a center card, but over all it's in really nice shape and super clean inside..

Nice little 302, I like that you can almost read the old ink on the brass card backing. You have some fun stuff on your blog, that push mower is very cool. I had one about 20 years ago, it worked well and was a good workout to boot, but as the years went by I got lazy and ended up with self-propelled.

thanks,

yes push mowers are a lot like jogging... You have to make yourself get up and do it...
