poor Dave ,
didn't cause the ol pumper to hickup did I?
hank the ya.........Heeaaayyyyy!....... it's called ol' Glory thank you very much :tab:
the ferret is owned by the man who owns Florida Airmotive , Owen Gassaway II , his father Owen (thats who the airport is named after
seamed to like the British stuff, hence the pic of ol Winnie in the FBO,...... so be nice......... or else
yes Lief it's rolling up damn nation alley...... you know it's up to 14 lanes wide now and in a few short strenches I think 16 with the on off ramps
when I came to florida it was 6 , and a few years befor that, 77 I think It came to a complete dead end at Okeechobee Blvd you'd of had to go west
to the Turnpike (Toll ) for express or US1 for the scenic route north...

BTW, there are quite a few Ferrets running 'round the States. They're affordable so they're a great "starter" vehicle for military enthusiasts. Plus, it's very simple to make them road legal in most states (some states it's simply a matter of doing the safety inspection and paying the registration and nothing more), so they're great for both show and daily use.

I think they can be gotten, but as long as these hold air.

, besides all it does is run around here.
