That generation Mustang are my favorite, bad azz, period. Mine may get set up for more drag racing if I don't reboot the bike program.

You must buy the box first if you want to know what's inside it.

That was the punchline on the hitchhiker/box joke that was circulating in my area in the 80s.

Ok. My guess now is a whole load of wheel and frame shipping boxes, plus pool noodles, duct tape, and a can of Tyson chicken. And a petrified half eaten doughnut.

I'm with Reynolds on this. You have to buy the box before it can be opened. With any luck this can stretch into about two hundred posts also. Har! MH
