TEEN-A-OLOGY: THE STUDY OF THE ORIGINAL GOWJOBS         

 

 

CONFESSION

Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned and come short of the glory of…....
Greasers??????? WTF?

So there we wuz, Man. On my turf. I fed those Mugs; I supplied the beer; welcomed them to the Inner Sanctum that is my garage.

And they laid me to waste.

Hurt me.

Criticised, critiqued, chastised, admonished and hastened.

Whew.

And I deserved all of it. Well, Dickweed gets some of the blame.

See, they were in the Teaser, dry cruisin’ and drinkin’ beer, sittin’ there right in the garage; I walk in, jump in the right rear seat with them, and one of ‘em says, “Yeah, everything ‘cept that alternator; what’s that about, Morty?”

“Well, it came on the banger engine that came in the five window and who had time to generate it while we were thrashing for Bonneville last year, ya know?”

Sheesh!

“That was 9 months ago.”

Gawd, Man, no rest for the imperfect.

“And how ‘bout those stupid screws holding the light switch in?”

“I was in a hurry and didn’t have any machine screws that were right so I found those….”

“About 9 months ago, right?”

What’s next?

“And them plug wires….. Crap!”

FINALLY! Something to blame on somebody else, “Dickweed did that an’ I tol’ him it was all wrong an’...an’......”

About 9 months ago.

I gotta go out to the barn.

SLOVENLY GREYBEARD LEFT THESE IMPERFECT ITEMS…..ALTERNATOR, PLUG WIRES…
AND MORE…..FOR NIT-PICKIN’ BY WOULD-BE PALS. JEEZE, MAN.

************************

The Flat Hill Climb in SLO looked great: we saw pics (didn’t go) and the ‘Street Rod’
gang from whom we have heard such rank dismissal of these low-tech activities, bragged about how cool it was, in a case of ‘Aw, you missed it’., we guess, since it happened right on the grounds of their deal.

So, now it’s cool?

THIS BANGER VIC IS RUN HARD ON A REGULAR BASIS

4Ever4 guy Larry Mckinney has the Vic tuned up with a visor that it wasn’t born with. We didn’t know that they didn’t come with them, but he scored again. ‘Looks bitchin.
