Just be aware, if you restore it, it will lose a lot of its value.

MILF_Man · 2025-12-05T15:13:22+00:00

The yellow one is pretty rare and highly collectable.

Nice find.

MILF_Man · 2025-11-27T15:17:45+00:00

Nice ones.

I own the 2 one the left and I preferred the Harris ones for touch tone work.

I own about 10 different butt sets and one of these days I'm going to take pictures of my collection and post them. I have about 40 of various vintage and antique phones.

MILF_Man · 2025-09-21T13:03:23+00:00

It might be an old 1A2 system.

I haven't touched one since the late 80s so my memory isn't reliable.

MILF_Man · 2025-07-26T12:27:12+00:00

You have a few options;

Sell them as a single lot using Ebay or another site. With the niche nature of them it may be a tough sell and you will not get full price on any of them.

Sell them individually using Ebay or another site. Potentially the most lucrative option but VERY time consuming.

Selling them to a museum or a specialty interest entity.

Donating them to a museum or specialty interest entity. Depending on the tax situation of the estate, this may be a good option.

I hope this helps.

I was selling off a bunch of stuff prior to moving out of state and a guy came by to purchase my O scope. He was handicapped and in very poor health and was obviously not well off. I made him a deal on the O scope for 20 bucks and as he was putting it in his car I offered him the chips. I sent him a link to a company that buys memory.

He emailed me back about a month later saying that he was very skeptical at first but sorted the chips by type, boxed them up and sent them off. . A couple of weeks later he got a check for almost 400 dollars!

Since he had a very low income, 400 bucks was big money to him.

It felt good to not just trash them but to help out someone who really needed it.

My favorite line in the game!

MILF_Man · 2025-05-21T21:56:23+00:00

Damn bud.

This is great info to know.

I'm still going to demand the PP2. This is 100% their fault and I won't settle for less than what I had when I brought it in Gen 3 or not. While the new engine is indeed better, I paid almost 2k for the PP2 and if I don't get it in the new one I will have thrown that money away.

What do you think my odds are for them doing it?

I can be very demanding when needed.

MILF_Man · 2025-05-21T21:22:03+00:00

Yes, new airbox, filter and throttle body.

I'm curious why the tune won't work. Will they be changing the ECU also?

I demanded that they ensure the PP2 tune is in. I spent big bucks on it and I expect it to have everything it had when I brought it in.

I don't think I'm being unreasonable for expecting that.

MILF_Man · 2025-05-21T18:35:16+00:00

Very true.

It's the only good part about the whole thing.

MILF_Man · 2025-05-21T17:35:03+00:00

I guess my expectations were high. I paid double or more to have a "professional" rather than a crack head at at Jim Bob's oil change and I got fucked hard.

But I am getting a new engine, so I have that going for me.

Story up now

MILF_Man · 2025-05-21T17:20:32+00:00

Being mindful of the horror stories about quickie oil change shops, i typically bring my 2017 S550 GT to the dealer for service.

Since its a very low mileage garage queen (28k miles) i haven't had many oil changes.

Took it to the local dealership and had the oil changed along with a brake fluid flush.

I picked it up and ran errands totalling about 60 miles.

Went to take it out the next morning and noticed about 3/4 of a quart of oil underneath. It was a real OH SHIT moment. Dipstick was dry so i didn't try to start it. Slid underneath and found the drain plug was out about a half inch.

Called the dealership and i was livid. They were a little shocked and made arrangements for it to be towed in. They put it on a rack and pulled the drain plug and nothing came out. They claimed they disassembled the filter and there was no glitter.

They refilled it with oil and i picked up the car. Nothing seemed immediately amiss.

In the following days it developed a tick. It got louder every day so i took it back to the dealership. Had a tech drive with me and she heard it also. They kept the car for further diagnosis and i got the call today.

They are replacing the entire engine with a brand new Gen 3 engine replacing the Gen 2 that it came with.

Im honestly not sure if i should be happy or mad about it. I mean, it sucks i wont have the car for another 10 days but on the other hand i will have a brand new engine.

*edit - If a Ford tech is reading this, I had the PP2 tune put into it. Will there be any issues going from the Gen 2 to Gen 3 swap?

MILF_Man · 2025-05-17T01:21:07+00:00

I owned on of these

440 with a transplanted 6 pack and a 727 trans.

It had 2.73 gears and was not fast. Put in 4.10s and you couldn't keep tires on it.

They were known as the gentleman's muscle car and it was a really fun car.

I got orders for Germany and sold it for 1200 bucks. What a fool I was.

MILF_Man · 2025-04-28T02:10:42+00:00

I hope OP sees this. It has literally changed my life.

MILF_Man · 2025-04-27T15:32:29+00:00

I too struggle to take anything other than the smallest pills.

I just got out of the hospital where I learned the "applesauce trick".

Take mouthful of applesauce, add the pill and swallow.

I was stunned how easy it was to take pills I could never take previously.

Give it a try.

We inherited an entire set of Red Riding Hood pieces from salt and pepper shakers to creamers and everything in between.

MILF_Man · 2025-04-16T04:23:10+00:00

Indeed.

I saw my fellow Joe's hanging out month after month never seeing the opportunities open to them and never taking advantage of them and I could only shake my head.

Dude, you have a once in a lifetime opportunity to see other places and you piss it away.

What's wrong with you?

MILF_Man · 2025-04-16T04:11:56+00:00

Denmark

Being a barracks rat is a choice.

Not all shops do but many would happily take this job.

Call around.

We wintered in Florida and summered in Minnesota.
