No basement photos?
It’ll get there.

Saw a Pinto with a 351 running around town when I was in HS. Not much clearance on the oil pan.

I worked with a guy in the early 90's that had a Pinto that he loved. He was always modifying things on it even tho people told him it wasn't adding value to it. I haven't seen one of those on the road in a very long time.
 
Lots of room for more birds and even more derelicts.
Plan is for a decent Marshall guitar amp, a Roland keyboard and dedicated amp (a vintage Music Man might work), my brother’s drum set, some recording stuff. Album covers, posters, basses, and guitars on the walls. Maybe I’ll learn some mandolin and cello. And hopefully friends dropping in for a few days to hang. Clean air, stars that are only visible from 6,000 feet or higher, plenty of room, good food, a golf course in the Village, and live music at the clubhouse on the weekends. You all are welcome to come and hang anytime.

There was a green ‘73 that would park in front of a house on our street occasionally up until the pandemic. Haven’t seen it since. It was in pretty good shape.

My part-time diggs over the next six months or so- not my place but a drummer brother’s of mine. Will be developing and recording original material, along with a few choice covers-

Though my poisons for that first orientation day were these - for the title and third tracks of Haphazard Minds, rest assured that this new lady in my life will soon be joining their ranks after I upgrade her with a recently arrived Hipshot Xtender-

Note the port light on the upper left of my TC Electronics rig and the slight curvature of the deck under the T-Bird indicating that I do indeed live on a sailboat-

Hit the museum in the AM. Have lunch. Hit the stores in the PM. Then cocktails, dinner and adjourn to V’s to play Thunderbirds. Hope the neighbors are up for it! I know I am.

Would probably go to Mike and Mike's first since it's farthest away, Bass Shop then the Museum (they have a reasonable sandwich shop there) and then it's not too far back to the house or lots of good places to eat.
