A guy bought a '56 Buick from us that he used to own years ago and showed up in this bad ass truck. He said it was from Las Vegas Rat Rods or something close to that. Had a show on cable for a while I guess. Cool to see.

Dan, I think some of us would rather see more pictures of the '56 Buick... ;-)
Yeah, that's cool too. The truck has a TON of detailed work and the photos don't do it justice. It was also a dark cloudy day which didn't help.

With oozing that much awesome sauce, I bet stepping in to hammer a deal is a cake walk.

Cool truck. Normally it has this dude riding shotgun:

I guess he couldn't make it because it's his week to take the kids to soccer practice. But still, those are some nice portholes on that Buick.

Yea, we ventured a bit off the off-topic, if that's doable.

It's just fresh in my mind cause we had a blizzard when I went to get my marriage license so I walked a few miles in the snow to town hall only to be asked where my VDRL (syphilis) results were. I replied " I am a physician, not a 19th century sailor in port for a few days".

do they have exemptions for older models like the pre-75 car emissions testing?

Logic and independent thought are not characteristics of a Ma state worker. If you are upright, taking nourishment and have a pulse, you get tested. Checking the box is needed for job security so you can retire at age 45, receive your pension and tailgate at every Patriot's game.
