CW.......your second post....... :rotf:

 

I got to tell this story.........

 

Back in collage, 1977, there was this one guy, :smart: ya know........He had the '74, orange, just like your second post :teehee: , had the whopping 304 in it, with the 4 speed.

 

So, one day before the end of class.......some guys wanted pay-back, so they jack up the rear of the car, and put some blocks under the axle, just enough to put the tires, wide 60's of course, about 1/2" off the ground :teehee:

 

Now the guy, and his roommate (who was in on it) head out to the parking lot, and the roommate does the old.......Hey, look over there.......they get in the car........start it.......puts it in gear.........and nothing :eek:

 

Got to remember, there's a crowd of about 50 guys standing around this parking lot watching.

 

So, we see the reverse light go on, and RRRrrrrrr.......nothing.

 

Shift again.......RRRRRRRrrrrrrrr.........nothing........little gear grinding KKkkkkk.....RRRRRRRRrrrrrrr.....still nothing.

 

The roommate is play this up with the old :dunno:

 

The guy looks up, see 50 guys laughing there butts off, opens the door, leans out and looks under the car, and sees the blocks.......

 

Classic :rotfl2:

 

Funny thing.......the :smart: got knock down a couple notches......His hot '74 Gremlin wasn't so hot any more.......and 33 years latter, it kills me to tell this story :rotf:

 

Man.......it was tough :typing: this story out :jump:
