First off sorry for the delay in my post. Second of all, I figured I would wait until I had something really exciting to write about. So I think this one takes it. Ok so it all started when my uncle came over to my house on saturday, April 25. He said he wanted to show me this car he had saw on e-bay that was right in Wantagh. It was this nice 1970 Oldsmobile 442. So on Monday I come home from school and he's over again, and my mother says "guess what Uncle Carmine bought" I said "The 442"? He said yes. He said guess what I'm selling. Let me stop right there, my uncle has this custom dune buggy since 1991. I've always loved that car. Ok so I immeadiatly say "the dune buggy"? He said yes. I replied "How much"? So not to take up much more time he sold it to me for $1000. That was Monday, on tuesday afternoon I cleaned our driveway with my aunt and some of my brothers in like 2 and a half hours. He brought it over that night. This car is so cool. I love it. Here are some pictures of it:
The exhaust is REALLY loud. I was driving with Franky that night and as I passed a car parked on the side of the road the alarm went off. It was funny. I was also parked next to Rocco's car just idling in nuetral and his went off also.
It's a four speed so he had to teach me how to drive it before he left. I did pretty good. I got it going in the first try!. I just have to practice a lot more. It also has these two air horns. One really loud one like a truck and one that sounds like an old car from the 30's.
On the front of the buggy there are two chrome head lights, smaller matching turn signals, the air horns and these chrome bull horns. They look pretty cool, I think.
