What was the powerful force that convinced me not to pull the trigger on my 357 when it was pointed at my head? Who saved my life in Panama when I should have died?

My Quadriplegic Brother in law (Paul) Who’s passed on. purchased a piece of crap 1967 Blue GTO and he himself fully restored engine and body, interior to show room new over 6 years other then the paint which my other brother in law owns a body shop painted. Paul did all the work himself throwing his body in different positions so he could reach certain areas. Needless to say it had handicap controls and he we all were in Awe at the work he had done. He had a very nice heated garage and heated radiant floor to work on it in. With TV Fridge, Enough room for 3 cars but this was the only one in the garage during the process here in New England.

When I was a senior in hs, a guy at my school had a '63 Falcon Sprint w/ 260 v8, 3-speed. A 'quick' car; I envied it! But after he graduated, he got his real 'dream car': A burgundy '66 GTO w/ 389, 4-speed, white vinyl roof. When its first 'service' came due, he took it to the dealer, left it overnight. That night, when thieves broke in, his was the only car with full tank of gas, so it was the one stolen and subsequently crashed. The dealership's insurance replaced the '66 with a '67 like the one shown here, except w/ 4-speed. (The '67 was nice, but to me, that '66 was the real beauty!)😢

@@loucostabile Hi Lou, great video! In my town of Fresno, CA, I think that we have more Vipers than an area our size should have. About 6 or 8 of them would show up at local car shows, just to show off. They would all be parked in a line right in the middle of things. A local guy was the first one on the block to get a Viper roadster when they came out. A bunch of people were at an area race track showing off their cars. People were needling him to step on it, and with a few too many drinks, he took them up on it. Well, he ended up loosing control and slid into a wall. The car was a pile of rubble, but it went to a local body shop where a friend of mine worked. The estimated, and I remind you, estimated, was $30K. The insurance said OK. Well, it ended up taking more than double that amount and the car could have been replaced for about the repair cost. Nobody was happy. Everybody got paid. He ended up selling the car to a guy in Texas, who drove it all the way back there. He took his money and put it into a new Viper coupe, which had just come out. He had an in with the Dodge boys so he was able to jump the line. Oh! Tell your wife that the reason there is no mirror on the passenger sunvisor is because if she was using one to put make-up on, if you floored it, like make-up might get on her face alright, but probably where she intended to put it!
