...I don't suppose some of you would be willing to write Foose about Dutchess or Vic or both...? The lovely strydewolf gave me the idea by offering to send my idol an email about my beloved metal babies...I know a lot of you were wanting to help in some way...well, maybe if we have enough people reaching out about them something will happen; and even if nothing does, the gesture itself means the world to me.

Here's a short recap of what they both are.

"Either one needs a miracle right now...

Vic is a 1968 Mustang that needs a lot of help...I have tried to obtain another one for almost 8 years, and now that I have this one, everything is falling apart, including the car as it wait patiently for my luck to change, and you have a idea of who my life has been...without a lot of help and some kind hearts, she'll be waiting for a long time.

Dutchess is my mechanical counter-part...I bought that truck when I was 17/18...I'm 26 now. She is a 1978 Ford Bronco...and she currently has two cracked pistons, a bad transfer case, bad ball joints and Lords know what else...I have had a dream of restoring her ever since I first saw her, but she is always the one saving our bacon and ended up being a "rolling restoration" and never has gotten the attention she really needed, and now it's evident. This truck has saved my life more then once and is genuine hard-core...having driven over 100 miles with a snapped cam and never once stalled or left us stranded...and now she needs at least a new motor or a rebuild of the heart she has...when Dutch is down, so am I...so things have been really hard lately."
