As an old man, I am now looking at estate auctions

This is terrible for my addictive personality, but up for auction is a 1976 El Camino with a 2 barrel carb, auto trans, and 72k miles. I wonder how much it will go for? Bidding doesn’t start until tomorrow, and I probably shouldn’t look back at it.

This 1965 Ford 500 also looks pretty sweet.

You now, now is a bad time for a project car.

I bet that engine makes 100 horsepower or more.

More? That’s a bold claim.

As an old man, I’m a bit concerned about being one.

I like that 500, square and clean and understated.

I love El Caminos. No t that one thou gh. Worst looking model.

I am not a big Ford fan. But that is an interesting car . They made a ton of those. I expect m o st of them got consumed in 1970's demolition derbie s. That is an interesting color. It might be worth saving.

What’s there to be concerned about? I mean, aside from the fact that you’re not with it anymore:

Or the fact that you could kick the bucket at any moment...

Now is a great time for a project car! I expect we are going to be stuck at home again

That’s it. I’d rather be around to play with my toys. But I’m more aware of the stuff I do than I was before. What I eat, getting exercise , visiting friends, etc.
