Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

Ya had to mention the goodies, didn't you? Like the head and manifold and overdrive! THANK YOU! Now it's not just another pretty face, it's a 'gift' for that sort of money. I'll be back while I go impress dahubby with the worth of that stuff!

And Keoke? Ummm...pppfffsssssssssssttttt! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif What's ours is ours, what's his is his, what's mine is mine.
Ours=kids/house

His=truck/boat/lawnmower/snow shovel
Mine=car/B and everything else. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif

By the way, just happen to have a truck and car dolly thingy trailer.

Back later, have to go present my case. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/angel.gif
 
Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

By the way. I have to stop hanging around you guys. You're a bad influence on me.

Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

Dahubby said I can't play here any more. That I have to find a nice quilting forum to hang out at.

Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

Quilting?....QUILTING? That's even worse! I know of a couple of women who have rooms specially built or converted to house their quilting hobby! Does hubby know how much THAT can cost? Then add the cost of the fabrics, and the storage. Better warn him /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif Stick with LBCs, they're cheaper!
 
Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

Doh! Ply him with drink and victuals....always seems to work for my wife /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/cheers.gif

Actually (SHHHHH!) I do quilt. Dahubby's gramma taught me when she was about 94 years old! That's IT! I'll get together the loudest, most obnoxious, overbearing women I can find (and I know a few!) and we'll start having 'quilting bees' here a few nights a week. Set that frame up right in the middle of the living room, between the sofa and tv...in a week he'll be BEGGING me to burn the quilting frame and buy a car!!!

How much Miller Lite you think this is going to take? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif

Victuals? As in COOK? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif

Can't I just threaten him? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif

You're good, you know that? I'm sure you're a lovely lady, and your interest in British cars can't be faulted, but in the nicest possible way.....I hope you and my wife never meet! She's quite devious enough on her own, without your inspiration! Tell me.......ever read Machiavelli? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

READ him? Who do you think taught Nicoli everything he knew? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif

And Steve, I'm sure your wife is a lovely lady, and in the nicest possible way...what's she doing for lunch Wednesday? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif
 
Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

Hah!Sounds like your Quiltathon is a viable strategy as well! And I agree with Steve, as well: Here's hoping my better half doesn't get wind of the "Quilting Frahme in zee livingah reuum ploy", or I could be in trouble deep....
 
Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

ATTENTION ALL LBCforum wives. First official meeting of "the wives club"...at jaybird's house. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/jester.gif
 
Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

jaybird,
shouldn't the club be "The Club of the Magnificent Lorenzo de Medici",
presided over and taught by "Niccolo Machiavelli" aka "jaybird"?

Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

i would already be there, with cash in hand,asking politely what it would take to end the auction early.

And for any of you guys that are interested in HOME BREWED BEER...The first step is to get out your wife's best stainless steel 10 quart pot... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif

But the car looks too good to part out, but I agree it is a project car or it would be a decent driver in a few months. Take a day to make the drive and look at it if you can, but the parts make it worth at least $1500 for the car. I predict that it will go for close to $2000 if someone local looks at it closely.

Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

My wife's 10 quart already has a couple quarts of oil in it from the MG, but it should be clean when I use it to wash the cars...Even though not as knowledgeable as others in this forum, I would recommend pulling the trigger. With the value of the parts alone, there really isn't a way to come up too short on this one, and your other B looks kind of lonely...
 
Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

Sorry, can't chat cars. Busy quilting! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/devilgrin.gif

I am going to email the seller and see what sort of 'buy it now' price he might put on it to end the auction early. Bid's at $511
 
Re: Ya'll get in here...NOW!

Jaybird,
Pretty nice car from pics, needs work, but don't they all?
Cross flow head (nice)....I think it will go quite a bit higher on price though /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif
