I’m not sure which Kathmandu you’re talking about, but I don’t think you need the big lottery to do it

It's a '70s thing.

Think I'll listen to the "Live Bullet" album today; it's been a while. And . . . if the turntable still works.


Actually, if I hit the lotto, I'd get some trees cleared, buy up all of the OLD RBVs I can find, and have my own private junk yard.

Of course, I'd need to have a pack of trained attack Chihuahua's to keep the riff-raff out.

And maybe even get me a pygmy pony, to ride through my beloved junkyard in the moonlight.

We can dream, cain't we?

@Rick W has a dog that can train your chihuahuas. But, after training by him, they won't let you into the junk yard either.

Planning is everything . . .

For a lot of folks, if you hit the little lottery, it gives you a little financial security, but it really doesn’t change your life. But if you hit one of the big lottery, what would you do?

I wonder if there’s anybody else like me. If I hit the big lottery, I would buy older stuff, not newer stuff…

I'd buy this...

And then likely end up like this later in the day...

Lol

I don’t know if I’ve ever seen you, but I know if I rode a pygmy pony, the Chihuahuas could get me easy, because the pony would be flat under my fat ass

Being small and short has it's advantages.

Seriously, though, in my opinion Chihuahuas are about the meanest, most annoying dogs out there. Brutal and blood-thirsty when running in a pack.

Base Security Cats, on the other hand, would just sit in the Junkyard Command Bunker (JCB) and work the drones. Even deadlier . . .

I would pay off what debts I have and probably do similar to what you are talking about. There are some old vehicles I would love to have but are way out of my price range because of increased value, once restored. Like old Toyota FJs, Dodge Power Wagons, and so on. Most of my time would probably be spent fending off new found relatives and companies looking to spend my new found money in a way that benefits them.

The missing Linc's cousin? [USER. =108716]@Rick W[/USER]

Is it available? Looks like Mark III OR IV front with a Mark V tail. A lot of work annd a lot of expensive parts. Any idea what the truck is?

Personally, I hate it when people ruin the flow of the original design of the vehicle.

EDIT: afterthought, the mark fives were not branded Lincoln. Lincoln did make them, but the brand was purely Continental. I’ll have to check on the three and four.

Based on the dash and rain gutters over the doors, the molestation victim is an '89 to '92 Ranger.

Key word "victim".

It's a Mark IV front with a Mark V rear. (No Mark III parts as far as I can tell.)

Purists claim the brand for Marks III–V was "Continental", not Lincoln, but Lincoln dealerships of the era did not have any separate signs saying "Continental".

It looks like @Rick W needs to step up his game or go buy the competition. It is the American way after all.
