Well, I haven’t gotten to post on this weblog nearly as often as I might like, owing to how much I’ve been roped into helping Dad with his wild & crazy midlife crisis. Well, I guess it isn’t quite as nuts as it could possibly be. You see, what he did was he dressed up like the Fonz or something, and drop by to my house and proclaim to me, in his hippest possible vocal tone: “Get ready, boy, we’re going to be looking for some classic Mustangs for sale. No joke, dude, I’m totally set to get one of my own.”

So next we were off to a few of those crazy vintage car showrooms that I’m always just about certain are not quite on the up and up, and I stare in wonder my dad cut a check on the spot, for a very well-preserved classic Ford automobile. It really is quite purchase. It sounded great as well.

Notice that I phrased that in a past tense. It had a great sound until it totally broke down. The old man tells me that it’s a simple problem and that all he requires is the right part. I’m thinking, it can’t possibly be as straightforward to find 1968 Mustang parts as it was some a million years ago, but my pop insists that there is a really nice-sized market for them in spite of their age. It seems like the surest way to get you parts for 1968 Mustangs is through web auctions, because you can get them refurbished and sometimes even brand new. They might not be a steal, however… I mean, we’re talking about half-century old automobile parts.

I suppose it could’ve been worse. It would’ve been worse if he’d gone and found a big tattoo or something.
