    the five star aggie motel

    my Dad picked this up last week from a friend. has some cool history. I plan on dragging it to a few games.
    Fred, Jimmy...he bought it from that guy who is next to us at Decatur that sells the speedway stuff.
    There was a Ford sticker on the door...I made Dad pull it off
    No idea who Greg Morris is, but it is in loving memory of him. There is also a ghost image of some stuff like a fireman's hat and an outline of Minnesota (best I can tell) on the nose.
    We're gonna save the back window..maybe I can get a vinyl one made like people use to put on the back windows of their P/U's?
    pretty good shape overall.
    ****ter needs attention.
    Mahogany ply cabinets. needs a little TLC here and there.
    We ordered the polishing kit to make it shine like an airplane.

    That interior is in suprisingly good shape for being so old. Are those turds aluminum or stainless? If they are aluminum I would highly recomend anything made by Alcoa. Its probably overpriced but back when I gave a **** about such things they had the best aluminum wheel cleaner and polish I knew of.
    On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"

    i would change the name to "stabbin cabin" but that's just me. Then I would stand at the door and get chicks to come in as long as they properly answered the question "How old do I look" Then i would scream out "Still got it", and let them in, completely bypassing the "How old are you?" question.

    Pretty sweet. Also, i would ride around in the back while someone was driving like that old mickey mouse cartoon.

    they are all aluminum. even the interior skin is aluminum w/ a paint called zolatone or something on it.
    it also has an aluminum belly pan and is completely smooth.
    they are pretty light.

    Update:
    Dad came over this morning and said Leah and I could have it. He bought a newer model land yacht on Ebay yesterday and is going to Atlanta to pick it up....something about he is hitting the road and going to yellowstone and Glacier for a month. Cool beans for me.
