today just did not start out too good, except for the fact that everyone i know woke up:p

after a morning of disappointments, i had to call a shop and tell them i could not drop off parts for a customer to pick up and thats where it changed:p i had remembed the owner was looking for a UTE for his friend so i inquired about it. He had bought a new one so I could stop looking, but he finally agreed to sell me his vintage 70 honda 4 wheeler:D ill be getting it when i get down in that area, but ive been dying to find one to restore for my youngest son Ryan so now i will have one:p

sorry, i just felt like telling someone:D

Aaaahhh.. memories...

A friend had a 70 trike back in the late 70's early 80's, i'm pretty sure it was 1979 model. It wasn't uncommon for three or four of us to tag team that thing all day. I even put it in the pond once. Still don't know exactly how but pilot error was definatly involved:p It still ran strong!

Good times with that thing:cool:
