I had a 66 Chrysler Newport when my wife and I got married. We drove it on our honeymoon. My wife didn't like the steering on it, she said it was to easy to turn the wheel she couldn't tell what it was doing. So I traded it to my Daddy for a 64 Impala he had. I was in the Army and was on my way to Vietnam so she was going to be driving it all the time. I come home on leave in 6 months and bought her a new 72 Nova Rally Sport. I drove it a 1000 miles to break it in before I had to go back. Wish I had that one now. Have a good day stay safe and God bless. Dan 🇺🇲

The channels I am subscribed to often are just because the person there is excited about what they are doing. It is the excitement of the person trying to start the channel that gets me hooked.

That's great advice he should listen to you. I started about a year ago you gotta just start and do it and put it out there and let the critics be critics because they're going to help you. Like you said he'll get better over time and then he can worry about putting out good videos. What he needs to remember is people are being held hostage and forced to watch his videos. They're choosing to watch it for a reason. Whether he thinks it's crap or not they're watching it. Anyways just wanted to say that. And what the hell are you gonna do with 2 bags of engines lol

Hey Silas, I had a good time watching everything that you do throughout your day. I've been disabled for a number of years now, and you do pretty much everything that I used to do. My best friends uncle used to own a junkyard in south Phoenix, way back in the 70's to the 2000, but in the late 70's and up till 1983, I would hang out there just about every Saturday and work alongside my friend. Man! The cool cars and stuff that would come through there was amazing! Every once in a while, his uncle would give him a car that he would buy for 100 bucks and he and I would go to town on it, fixing it up with whatever he could find in the junkyard. Fun, fun times. Thanks for all the fun memories, Silas. Have yourself a great night, and enjoy your tomorrow. God bless you and your family. Take care, my friend.
