    Who's still swinging the original deus and orx?

    I hunt plowed fields 95% of the time and vacant lots the other 5%. But my field hunting is limited to the end of deer season which is the middle of January and the planting that can start as early as March or as late as May. Depending on the harvest we might get in a couple weeks before deer...

    Muscle cars.

    Other than the motor there is very little difference between the 66 an 67. Main differences were the tail lights and grille.

    Muscle cars.

    Very nice cars! I had a 64 1/2 Mustang but sold it before I even started the restoration.

    Yep. Greatest of all time! And, I have some serious money invested in the restoration!
