    Thanks frank for the video. Also appreciated you listed the prices. I had a 67 Coronet same colour 4 door with the slant 6 back around 1981. Was a good car. What a neat collection of vehicles. You did a great job of recording and commenting on everything.

    I'm quite a bit older than you and glad to see someone younger that still sees value in old metal. If I had to pick it would of been the 63 ford galaxy four speed four twenty seven car. I had a few and miss all of them but as favorite cars went, I really liked the 57 ford fairlane tudor as they had the narrow back window pillar. I had one that inherited a large 406 FE engine with four speed and ran at the track. It was light, fast and bullet proof for lesser statements. He must of had a corner on ford vans and chevy corvairs as that actually was a really good engine with other problems that made them not so popular... I owned the spider for a while with a tripower system. No heat tho and washington state in the winter wouldn't fly. Nice job and hope that you continue these walkabouts. I know the in's and out's of most cars shown. That fury looks a lot the one that Scott rebuilt in "Cold War Motors" in canada... check out his channel for a whole different perspective on life terms. So my words to you are stay hydrated and keep em coming

    That 1963 galaxie has a Low Riser 427 Top / Center Oiler . All 427s were Low Riser Top / Center Oilers until 1965 when the Mid Riser, Side Oiler began production. A High Riser Duel 4 Barrel Side Oiler was available only in the 1966-67 R code Fairlane 500

I know that this is about Classic Cars, but I have a friend who lives in California and he has told me about a terrifying snake that is found in the desert, mainly in the LUCERNE VALLEY area called the LEESIE SNAKE. My friend said that the locals live in fear of this HIGHLY venomous and dangerous predator. I have an interest in snakes and other reptiles but I can not find any information on the LEESIE SNAKE. My friend assures me that he isn't playing any jokes on me and that this terrifying creature really does exist. Thanks for any input.
