    Don't even try
    I have been repairing, and welding on these for 40 years

    10 years ago, I tried to "sneek " in a weld on my son's Centarian.
    I set it on fire.

    In 01, I decided to close in the cowel vent on my completed 56 pick up street rod project
    I didn't remove the interior ( what can go wrong? )
    I set the new carpet on fire.

    What's a Centarian?

    I believe he was maybe - possibly referring to the Buicks. There was a corvette type "concept" car in the 50's and both a hard top and convertible in the late 60's and early 70's. Kind of looked similar to a LeSabre or LeMans.

    No, a Centenarian was a project farmed out by Ford.
    In essence, they took a 4 door truck, and a bronco, and put them together, essentially making the first excursion.
    The project went on for 5 years to see if there was enough interest to build the excursions.

    Ford needed a piece of the market that Chevrolet was taking with the suburban

    Obviously, the project was a success!

    Here is ours

    I'm pretty sure it's the Centurion, named after one of these:

    You ought to see the habit I've developed as part of growing older.... I will switch words. Write instead of right, wait instead of weight, etc. I have to proof read everything. My doc checked me, said nothing's wrong just part of getting older, type of dyslexia showing itself, lol.

    Alternatively - it could be an attack of "SOUTHERNITIS":

    Florida

    A Florida senior citizen drove his brand new Corvette convertible out of the dealership. Taking off down the road, he pushed it to 80 mph, enjoying the wind blowing through what little hair he had left.

    “Amazing,” he thought as he flew down I-95, pushing the pedal even more.

    Looking in his rear view mirror, he saw a Florida State Trooper, blue lights flashing and siren blaring. He floored it to 100 mph, then 110, then 120. Suddenly he thought, “What am I doing? I’m too old for this!” and pulled over to await the trooper’s arrival.

    Pulling in behind him, the trooper got out of his vehicle and walked up to the Corvette. He looked at his watch, then said, “Sir, my shift ends in 30 minutes. Today is Friday. If you can give me a new reason for speeding – a reason I’ve never before heard – I’ll let you go..”

    The old gentleman paused then said, “Three years ago, my wife ran off with a Florida State Trooper. I thought you were bringing her back.”

    “Have a good day, Sir,” replied the trooper.

    Georgia
    The owner of a golf course in Georgia was confused about paying an invoice, so he decided to ask his secretary for some mathematical help.

    He called her into his office and said, “Y’all graduated from the University of Georgia and I need some help. If I wuz to give yew $20,000, minus 14%, how much would you take off?”

    The secretary thought a moment, and then replied, “Everthang but my earrings.”

    Louisiana
    A senior citizen in Louisiana was overheard saying, “When the end of the world comes, I hope to be in Louisiana .”

    When asked why, he replied, “I’d rather be in Louisiana ‘cause everythang happens in Louisiana 20 years later than in the rest of the world.”

    Mississippi
    The young man from Mississippi came running into the store and said to his buddy, “Bubba, somebody just stole your pickup truck from the parking lot!”

    Bubba replied, “Did y’all see who it was?”

    The young man answered, “I couldn’t tell, but I got the license number.”

    North Carolina
    A man in North Carolina had a flat tire, pulled off on the side of the road, and proceeded to put a bouquet of flowers in front of the car and one behind it. Then he got back in the car to wait.

    A passerby studied the scene as he drove by, and was so curious he turned around and went back. He asked the fellow what the problem was.

    The man replied, “I got a flat tahr.”

    The passerby asked, “But what’s with the flowers?”

    The man responded, “When you break down they tell you to put flares in the front and flares in the back. I never did understand it neither.”

    Tennessee
    The Sheriff pulled up next to the guy unloading garbage out of his pick-up into the ditch. The Sheriff asked, “Whaah are you dumping garbage in the ditch? Don’t you see that sign right over your haid?”

    “Yep,” he replied. “That’s whaah I’m dumpin’ it here, ‘cause it says: Fine For Dumping Garbage.
