I know we love to repair but this one is kinda embarrassing, I have the same oven as Darren and Samantha in "Bewitched"

i wish, i'd never give that up, mine just sits whispering remodel to the CFOThe kind that magically bakes a 5-tier wedding cake when you twitch your nose?
Sorry about his loss.Believe me...he has regretted it for 55 years.
About 30 years ago he tried to track it down, but the trail went cold after an engine fire and subsequent sale to a junkyard about 15 years after he sold it
I'm curious. How many cars did Ford sell because of Smoky and the Bandit (1 and 2)? vs. Pontiac Firebirds, especially Trans Ams? The first movie made Firebirds iconic.Trading a GM product for a Ford product? Yes ... everyday and twice on the weekend!

I have a 1981 Special Edition Trans Am, very similar to what Burt Reynolds drove in the 1981 Smoky and the Bandit movie, and no way would I trade it for a Ford, not even a Thunderbird!
I had a 1977 Formula for a long time. It had a 6.6L Pontiac engine, a 4bbl carb, 4 speed manual, and Posi-Trac rear end. It beat the heck out of the 1968 Custom 500 Ford I commuted 80 miles round trip to college in for four years. I sold it to a guy who planned to ship it to the Netherlands. I would have kept it, but my wife wanted the garage for her car, and I wasn't ready to put the money into it to get it back in shape.

For the sarcastically impaired....or people too young to be able to tell the difference, someone is pointing out the sadness/humor of conflating a Steve McQueen movie with a Burt Reynolds movie. And the answer is... I think only James Garner and Steve McQueen could actually drive their cars in a race type manner. But maybe Reynolds raced, too.How many Firebirds did Pontiac sell because of Bullitt?

Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!How many Firebirds did Pontiac sell because of Bullitt?
1966. https://fraserengineco.com/fraser-fast-facts/animal-house-deathmobile/Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?!
As I recall, in that movie was a plush 1962 or 63 Lincoln Conti with suicide doors that was cut up and turned into the parade 'float'.
Putting a mancave above my detached garage. Bathroom and full kitchen. Found someone remodeling their kitchen and the slab of granite was the perfect fit for what I had in mind. 600 bucks. They threw in the almost brand new stainless LG dishwasher for free. Here's to hoping it's as good as you say.LG here, 15 years 1 replacement pump motor dishes still come out spotless. darn thing is super quiet, can only tell it's running if there's no other sound in the house
We're fighting this now. My parents put beautiful granite countertops in this house 7? years ago. Problem is the kitchen layout sucks, but we can't move anything because we'd never match the granite and it's too nice to trash.Good catch on finding the granite. I find it tough to understand putting in a countertop that would last for a thousand years in a kitchen that will be remodeled in 10.
