I like the nice color-match Car = House! Excellent find.

Same… it’s as if you want us to think you never take care of it. Not even when you go to sell it.

For sure. Proud to keep the dream alive and well in the family. Found this pic while downsizing for my move. Taken back when the Bird came into the family in ‘77. The Elaine script on the door is

Due to an overseas move the Yellow Bird had to find new home! Sad to see her go, we’ve had an epic 17yrs together, but know she’ll be in great hands. Headed to Puyallup, Washington to live with my cousin. Grandpa would be proud she’s being kept in the family… was his favorite car. Say hi if...

Blowing the dust off it. Got this great HAIR PRODUCT company air freshener in the local barbershop... fits the theme well.

Loooove that big rear end!

BUMP *** For any other leads on a good Transmission shop in Portland, OR? Looking for good service and not a rebuild (hopefully).

Dang. Hillsboro is a bit of a haul from me in North Portland. But will give them a call. Thanks for the reco.

Thanks. You ever used them or know someone who has?
