Powerhouse177 views5.0L High Output motor. The HO motors in these cars have forged pistons and a steel crankshaft. It has Central Fuel Injection (CFI) and a dual snorkel for the breather. Everything works including A/C which has been retrofitted to R134A, cruise control, power brakes and power steering. These motors were rated between 165-175 hp. The Mustangs with the same motor were rated at 185 hp due to the dual exhaust system on those.

Driver's side Rear view155 viewsThis car has brand new shocks on the rear.
|
|
Sleek and shiny148 viewsAll of the LX's had the blacked out grill as this was Ford's attempt to compete with the European imports like BMW that same year. The performance and handling were equivalent to the BMW 3 and 5 series of the same year.

Passenger side view137 viewsThe previous owner of this car had it painted and clear-coated severals years ago.
|
|
Driver's side back seat136 viewsThere's no tears or cigarette burns here. This is a very comforatble car even in the back seat.
|
|
Style and performance134 viewsThis car is a great sleeper car. No one suspects that this car can perform the way it does, so many ricers are surprised at red lights when you take off.
|
|
Console shifter132 viewsThe LTD LX was the only sedan Ford ever built during the 80's with a console shifter.
|
|
Driver's side seat129 viewsThe driver's seat is equipped with adjustable 6-way power seat.

Passenger side rear seat view124 viewsThis car has power door locks and child safety lockouts and the windows only roll down half-way.
|
|
Rear view117 viewsThis is the view most other cars will have. Notice the rear anti-sway bar underneath. This car handles like it's on rails.

Speedo113 viewsThis car has 117, 300 and some miles on it. The Police versions had the 140 mph speedo and all of them have tachs.
|
|
Passenger side front seat111 viewsVery comfortable seating for your co-pilot.
|
|
Plenty of storage99 viewsThere's enough room for a dead body in the trunk, although I wouldn't recommend it. It has the original spare tire and cover and all the jack hardware.

Two old farts living their dream51 viewsHere Ken and I are focused intently on hitting the right notes. Ken's guitar sounded awesome that night and illustrated the fact that he is a true "gear head". We used his digital recorder to record the show although we were plagued with technical difficulties. We only managed to get bits and pieces of our Distraction set but captured a great deal of the jam session afterwards with Aash.

The Future of Government36 viewsAustin volunteered for a day as a Senate Page for Gary Tapp. This is good experience and is a part of Governor's Scholar program that he partipates in. Austin says that his goals are to go to attend law school and later become a U.S. Senator from Kentucky.

Randal and Rory35 viewsHere's a view of the whole campsite. Rory, Danny and myself all slept in the big tent on the other side of the campfire and Randal slept in the tent off to the right.
|
|
Danny by the fire35 viewsDanny watches as Rory checks on some food we are cooking. We cooked a whole chicken in Rory's Lodge dutch oven pot. It was awesome. The meat just fell off the bones and it had a lemon pepper seasoning.
|
|
More decorations by Kate35 viewsShe is the quintessential hostess and very gracious. She put up all of the decorations that you saw (if you came) in the lodge. I am not sure if she is for hire, but I can't think of anyone else I would rather have plan my next event.

In Case of Fire...32 viewsIn case of fire, this window is my only exit. I can crawl out the window and make my way along a WOODEN stairway down to the ground. Hmmm, I hope the wood isn't on fire when I do this. To go to the next photo, click on the little blue arrow at the top right of the box surrounding this window. It points to the right. You can enlarge any image by clicking on the image. Click on the image again to make it go away.

He was chosen for his outstanding commitment to community service, leadership and scholastic achievement in the Kentuckiana area.

Lewis and Clark expedition31 viewsWhen Rory and Danny pulled up in Rory's truck (with the canoe on top), Danny pointed out that they looked like Lewis and Clark with all of the supplies they brought. The truck was completely full, inside and out.
|
|
Snoring device31 viewsOf course, here's where my plethora of guests sleep when they visit. This nicely decorated piece of sleeping and sitting hardware is furnished with a Thomas Kinkade throw blanket and pillows. There's definitely a theme here. Lots of lighthouses and nautical stuff in this room. The color is actually called "Lighthouse". I wanted something pleasant and peaceful and this shade of blue does that for me.
|
|
The Throne31 viewsAh, a nice recliner to rest my weary bones at the end of a long day of marketing analysis. This is the view you see first when you catch your breath from the 36 steps to my apartment. As you can see, there's not a single horizontal surface on the ceiling. Everything is angled and slopes in every direction. It's certainly a good use of space no matter how you look at it. I like living above the fray and not below them. Of course, the Frays live downstairs.

Watch Your Step!29 viewsThis view is from the top of the stairs in my apartment. At the bottom of the stairs is the door to the hallway. There's not enough room for a handrail, so you have to balance yourself by putting your hands on the wall. Interestingly enough, you cannot squeeze anything larger than a full size mattress up this stairwell. Don't even think about a full size couch! I bought a futon because you can assemble it once you get it upstairs, plus, it gives Randal a place to snore when he visits.

Bob Coots Legends Video25 viewsThis video was shot on May 22, 2010 in high definition. The video is intentionally small here so that it can be viewed over the Internet but is available on on high quality DVD for anyone who would like to have it. Please contact Marci or myself if you are interested in obtaining a high quality DVD of this video. I don't have a Blue Ray disc burner yet which would allow me to burn this video onto a BD so that it can be viewed in full HD but it's on my list of things I'd like to get :-).

Prestigious Scholarship competition24 viewsAustin is up for the Pflughaupt Scholarship along with six other SCHS seniors. The competition is tough and the other candidates have strong credentials. Austin is planning to attend Cornell University in Ithaca, NY and this scholarship worth $20,000 will help pay for part of his first year there. The winner of this scholarship will be announced at the Senior Awards ceremony on May 30, 2006. Good luck Austin!

Old TV with N64 and PS223 viewsWhen I need to kill about 6 hours, I will play games on this. The TV is actually hooked up to cable and has a good picture on it so I can watch TV at night when I can't sleep (which is usually every night). The window is a very cool bay window and all 3 of them open. The view is out onto Floyd Street where I usually hear all kinds of noises when I am trying to sleep: people yelling, sirens, gunshots, you name it.
|
|
Command Central23 viewsHere's where I control the empire. Unfortunately, this is the only place in the apartment where I could put a corner desk. It's a little too close to the fridge, though and it's a little too easy to munch when you're working. I have furnished the area with Dualies memorabilia as I am apparently the one and only collector of their stuff. The dining table was given to me by Steve Jackson (thanks Steve!). It has an extra leaf that is in the closet, and will seat 4 people very uncomfortably.

Austin was also an honorary Girl Scout22 viewsLong before Austin was bestowed the honor of Eagle Scout, he got an early introduction to scouting through his mother's Girl Scout troop. They are shown here on a trip to Natural Bridge. He also had his mother's blond hair when he was young. Today, it has darkened to a medium brown color (like his father's used to be).

The living room22 viewsWithout a wide angle lens, it's impossible to see the whole living room because it is so small. I don't really need a lot of space though. Notice the nautical gauges on the wall. Nice, touch, I'd say. That's the "Redmon" crest and "Coat of Arms" hanging on the wall. The little door is where the raccoons and opossums live, along with my furnace and A/C.

Crow's Nest21 viewsI call this the Crow's Nest because you can look out this window and see my garage. When my stuff was getting stolen regularly, I would sit at this window and watch my garage. I can also see most of the alley from here. I replaced this window last year because it was double paned and had gotten cloudy over the years. Now I can catch anyone lurking around my garage and can run downstairs and shoot them before they get away.
