Is High End Audio catchin' up with you all?

I want to be carlsbad when I grow up.

 

Speaking of "good noises".   My '66 Sunbeam Tiger with hand-built 347 stroker motor sounds like a pro stocker when I get on the gas.  Music to my ears.

 

And, I'm 72 and still wear the same size pants as I did in my 30's.  Does that count?

Wear the same size pants as I did in high school

Me too, but about 6 inches lower...lol.

That must be a handful to drive!

Never seen a Tiger. Only a few Alpines over the years. A high school friend drove a beat up Alpine, that I loved to drive, when given the opportunity.

 

@waytoomuchstuff    Maxwell Smart would be SO envious. My very first car was a '67 Alpine in french racing blue...a total stripper...not even a radio. Only had it a year but I flogged it mercilessly the whole tome so probably put the equivalent of 5 years of "normal" use on it. Never once did it go in for service but, hell, what was there to break???

LOL, I seem to recall when I was at a classic car auction seeing a perfect Sunbeam Tiger about to cross the block. I remember it because my mechanic begged me not to bid. He said there was a pass thru in the glovebox necessary to be able to change a sparkplug(s). Shoehorned that powerplant in there. I just laughed.
