Hospital socks for shock covers ....lol.

I knew there had to be a good use for those things other than covering your feet ! Looks great.

This weekend made my whole year, not like I was counting down the hours or anything. lol I won't miss another PPIR OPTIMA!

The results are posted, Jake took the win in GTV class, congrats to Mr Shipka getting the OUSCI invite, Tom and Aaron finished right behind the OLOA, and Efrain took a 3rd in the AutoX and the Design judging and tied w Aaron overall .... well done folks!

Thanks for the compliment Chief but i have never really thought of myself as a "fierce competitor" but more of a guy with what's normally a super dependable and fun to drive Chevelle. I would like to note that when the road course picture was taken, i had a broken anti-swaybar end link bracket. Glad we were able to meet you and look forward to seeing your car on the road. Good times for sure!

Tom ... I didn't mean no disrespect. Sorry! I will see you guys at the next PPIR Optima event fer sure.

Finished the welding on the engine mounts and my shock tower braces! Got the subframe under the car with the help of my engine hoist ... stabbed it in eye-balled each side and got the bolts started, and waited for my nephew to come up and help me check squareness. Well, that stab was within a 1/16" cross diagonal, guess my subframe connectors are dead nuts on .

Went ahead and hung the front sheetmetal and installed all the trim before I finalize that corner. Went ahead and pulled the front end forward to gain access to the molding screw they hid.










Well, that's what I got done ... I'll finish welding that corner and get the roof ready for Lizard skin and then some SPI epoxy

Thanks for looking ...

Im glad you got your subframe finished and installed. I am still working on mine. Getting everything squared and lined up has been quite a task.

Same here!! Walked over to talk to Blake and Jay (SpeedTech) and see Mary Pozzi -- she's on her way home from the Nationals in Nebraska or something or other....

My '33 (Gwen's) will be parked in the "Hall of Fame Tour" area with the others that are on that. Hope to see you!

Cool What a weekend!

Went back to the GG Colorado Nationals and met up with Greg, Charlie, and Ken .... it was a pleasure to meet them. Took a bunch of pics, nothing fancy ... take a look at my ImageShack for more!



















The GG put on a heck of a show, the AutoX was cool ... not many cars there thou. And having the GG Tour come through Colorado was really cool

The guys were heading out today for Bowling Green ... be safe guys and I'll see you next year with my car!!!
