Title: Bringing Pintos back to life.
Post by: High_Horse on October 11, 2007, 07:35:03 PM

I am really excited here lately. It seems there are allot of Pintos being pulled from fields and barns and being brought back to life. Yaaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!
Aside from them being Pintos I can't think of anything more interesting then rejuvinating a car that is left for dead. Aaaaaaaaahahahah ha ha he he said Dr. Frankenstien to egor. I myself left ThunderPinto behind the shed for two years untouched and checked upon before I towed it out to preform the v8 conversion and get my fix of bringing something back to life.
I salute all of you engaged in this process and encourage your questions here to be successfull and safe.
High_Horse tip....When you have wrestled that car from where-ever and get it home don't attempt to start it till you have sprayed each cylinder with some WD-40 and let it sit overnight. And don't forget to spray the door hinges.
Keep up the good work.

Please - stop...you're killing me. I can't hardly think of anything that we be more fun than pulling a wretched Pinto hulk from a backyard or junkyard, and bringing it back to like new specs (with special "flavoring" of course...

CookieBoy, Yes you could take the more direct route this time. Oh, and my apologies for that bed. As I don't generally go up there, Her-Highness_Horse said those Quarters were equipt comfortably for guests and the matress was a new firm one. I happened to go up there in August and layed down on that bed and hit my head on something hard...Well!!! It was the D___matress!!!! No wonder she wasn't watching FootBall,BaseBall,BasketBall,Hockey,CSI Miami and Golf up there for awhile.She is going to get it. You are such a nice guest. I said to her "Did CookieBoy sleep on this matress??" She said no but I knew it was a fib cause she turned up the volume on Opfra and went out back to pick tomatos. Needeless to say that matress is GONE, replaced with a double, High_Horse certified Pinto guest matress.

Hey High Horse.... bed was fine for me, I would have slept on it again. You were a very gracious host and only wish we wouldn't have gotten there so late and had more time at your place. If I make it down that way again I would be happy to spend more time at the High Horse Ranch ;D
