Hey again,
I had the opportunity to share with V.I. Massive and 1WKDRoush last night and thought i might as well with the rest of the WS WA group..
My dad is a retired USN EOD Diver and has been for about 6 years. Great guy, full of laughter and love for his family. Couldnt ask for another man to step up to the challenge of raising 4 kids, dogs, cats, horses...chickens? yup.
About a year back, an older gentleman sold my dad a white 64' Stang with the inline 6. $2,000 and all the parts, body panels, you name it.. ready to be restored to its former glory. Its been in the garage looked at and tinkered on since then but never really a real project.
I got word last weekend that my dad has had a brain tumor for the last 5 years, now its at the stage that its terminal and inoperable. Doctors have him on pain meds and the works and given us a time span of a day to 6months. My dad keeps diving and working in seattle to save money for the family when he's gone, so hes only home on the weekends.
Here are some pics of the 64' stang, maybe we could put together a saturday or two a month to get together as WS WA and bring this baby back to life.. I would like to do that for my dad since he cant find the time or energy.. and do it to really solidify this chapter and have a project to be proud of as friends.
Any ideas would be great guys, thanks
