lol, yeah life :headspin:
Ben getting a few things done, but mostly trying to keep the Chevelle going and doing events.

Got some cool press on Forgeline's site. That's pretty cool.

Got the front control arms off to modify for Ridetech coilovers. Need to wrap up the brake lines, think I have everything for those now. A little wiring (electric fan and new alternator) left to do. A punch list of small things that add up to a lot of time still to do.

I'm off the event schedule for 3 weeks, so I hope to get it on the road soon. Winter's almost here, geesh...

Aaron, I just read through all 16 pages. I know you told me the story, but it was cool to see all the extra pics.

Very nice ride!!

I understand that! I have had to switch from working on my Vette to getting repairs done to my snowplow. I hope this winter isn't as bad as last.

Great exposure on the Forgeline site. Those wheels look fantastic.

Yeah, it's getting real cold here already:shakehead: Need to start thinking about some fall/winter prep stuff too.

The Forgeline guys are great, they actually came to me for the story on the car which I thought was pretty cool. We are very happy with the look.

Hopefully I'll have some good progress to show in the next couple of days...:headspin:

:woot: it moves under its own power! First test drive tonight at 10:30pm. Nothing like side pipes to wake up the neighbors:action-smiley-027:

Video proof as soon as photobucket posts that it is available.
Still lots to do, needs carb tuning for sure, bleed the brakes again, put the hood on...

Edit: the "burnout" video...a few donuts in the (wet) grass :)

Photobuckets is being difficult again...if you click on that little icon it should play.
Or try this:

I seen your 65 at LS fest I can't believe you guys throw those big cars around like that very impressive. Nice forgeline press too by the way.

Why thanks Tom! LS Fest was pretty fun. Big cars, yes, but compared to cars of today...not so big. My Chevelle weighs 3320.

Ok that's better, very cool. Man this car is soooooo cool Aaron!!
