bigmal 225 Report post Posted April 4, 2018 Hi all, I will be in St Louis at the end of April and will have Saturday 21, Tuesday 24, Wednesday 25 and Sunday 29 free. Looking for anything to do or see that is Mustang or muscle car. Of course I will be going to Fastlane Classic Cars. That's a given. As my Birthday is on the 24th the wife said to buy myself something at Fastlane. I don't think she realises they sell cars. Also will be taking an extra suitcase to stock up on parts from CJPP. Saves on postage to Australia. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bigmal 225 Report post Posted April 23, 2018 I'm here!!! Waiting for my shipment from CJ Pony Parts. It's my Birthday on the 24th so will be at Fastlane Classic Cars. The wife said to get myself a present while I'm there. I said "you do know what they sell don't you". I think she meant to get a T shirt. Off to Gateway Classic Cars today.

bigmal 225 Report post Posted April 24, 2018 Had to reconsider Gateway Classic Cars as the Cab fare was too much. Went to Fastlane Classic Cars. I think I'm dehydrated from all the drooling. Wow! I bought a nice 1:18 69 mustang model. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

My wife keeps telling me to throw it out but I'm kind of attached to it. I did buy a Fastlane hat for when mine does wear out but I'm not sure how bad it will have to be to be 'worn out'.

RPM 1,190 Report post Posted April 24, 2018 I just looked at Fastlane's website, looks like one heck of a place! And your hat is just getting broken in. What's the story with the Charger? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What's the story with the Charger? Not sure. It was in the carpark and I thought MAC390 would like it being a Charger fan. It was way beyond economical resto unless it was a rare model. I couldn't anything that didn't need fixing. The interior was as bad as it gets. I follow them on Facebook and they had it on about a week ago so it must be for sale. Maybe its like the original Bullitt or a GT500 and a collector will save it. 1 MAC390 reacted to this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
