    Hi. My name is ryan. I have always been a car guy and built tons of hot rods, but by far my favorite is the maverick/comet. My first car was a 75 maverick four door I picked up for $150. Next I found a 73 maverick grabber in a barn, in immaculate condition (minuse the damaged apolsterie due to mice) for two dollars. Recently I bought a 74 comet and drive it every day except inthe winter. I do all my own work so if you have any questions or just want to say hi feel free!

    A two-dollar coin in Canada.


    The one-dollar coin is called a "Loonie" because it has a Loon on the coin.

    When the $2 bill was replaced by the two-dollar coin, people called it a "Toonie".(y)

    And at Canadian KFC's, on Tuesday it used to be able to buy you Two Pieces of Chicken and fries. Now, it costs $2.99. Inflation!:rolleyes:
