Hmmmm... he objects to honorable mention but does not deny bearing the yoke of household chores late into the night in lieu of garage time. Yup, sounds 'bout like marital bliss. :lol:
This commentary brought to you by the guy who calls his car "Someday"!:rofl:

Sieg,

Glad to see you kept your head up and plowed through those firing issues. :D

Thanks Skipper! Very appropriate .gif since it was a ground issue. :lol:

Have you seen the 1290 Super Duke R? :unibrow:

Your goal is obtainable. :unibrow:

Sweet!

Skip is there a .gif or video clip you don't have in the library?! :thumbsup:

Thanks GW........hopefully the motor is a step above a pedal car. :D

Thinking out loud after looking at the last picture........
Considering the blackout theme of the car, would the front end visual be improved with:
-JW Speaker headlights
-Smoked turn signal lenses
-Orange Bow-Tie in the grille vs. factory blue
???

If it was mine I'd blacken the bowtie and leave the lenses as is. But you'll get 100 opinions on this kind of deal. :D

I hope so! It's entertaining to hear other's perspectives. Black was my other thought on the tie. :thumbsup:

I have none of me actually doing work real men get paid to do.




:lol:

If it was mine -- I'd send it to The Roadster Shop and have 'em make me a killer Torino.




The bugs don't give a hoot about what they bonzai into.... just drive it.

Norwood Is Close To Terrorising The Byways And Highways Of America

Roadster Shop? Thought they made old pickups and coups. :woot:

Ain't many bugs left pardner, and the way the weather report looks I'm hoping I don't have to mount up some Blizzak's for the first drive. :D

Thanks to the holiday the insurance adjuster isn't going to make it for the final inspection until Mon/Tue. Turkey Day may be the last good day this month........Crap. :willy:

Backroads son, backroads.......the backyard is full of them. :yes:

yep, done

You might consider picking up another stock style bowtie or 2 to play with, then Norwood can change his attire to match his shoes.

I think a black one might get rather lost unless the chrome border helps.

Billet comes to mind but what would compliment that?

Orange is not far off from the red Earnhardt//Heartbeat era ones. Might work well, might work against.

Have you considered going "no tie"?

:unibrow:

:drool: Uh, I'm sorry... what were we talking about?

:D

Subtle styling ques that discreetly attract attention and create a positive, memorable, and lasting first impression. :thumbsup:

So...... you mean..... like this?? Another '69 Camaro.... not so much.


:D

The discussion was about front ends and headlights right?

For some reason that's one photo I haven't been able to delete. :unibrow:

Now that makes sense:D


Running first, bling second.......:cheers:

Let's see your motor is sitting somewhere and your car is at one of the premier PT bling shops????

:rolleyes:

Where they are doing no external sheetmetal work:unibrow:

They are ensuring I can hide everything in a stock looking shell:D

Cheater!! :thumbsup:

only if you get caught :rofl:

Why do I get the feeling people are being quoted just to make sure the picture below keeps getting reposted?

http://photos.smugmug.com/photos/i-S.../i-S33jM8F.jpg

A Torino without a RS Chassis would be pointless.........:rofl:

Like them boobies don't ya, or is it the hat? :unibrow:

Nice 69 Camaro like how you........

OK, you win :D Let's get back to what ever this dime a dozen thread was about. :thumbsup:

Anyone on this thread building the car they want is winning my friend.:D

Now black out that bowtie and the front bumper so it matches the rear.:unibrow:


I was stoked to dive into my motor on dyno day swapping intakes and jetting carbs and busting knuckles. Good times.:thumbsup:
Props to you on your hard work on your car.
:cheers:

Ouch!


:willy: :willy: :rofl:

don't know what you are talking about....now I have a place to hang my keys :/

I thought this car was going to be running this week.:_paranoid

Did you paint that front bumper and bowtie Black yet?

:cheers:

Waiting on the State Farm adjuster................weather was perfect this afternoon too. :(

I'm not going to lite a fire under his bum considering the adds to their initial estimate.....not including my upgrades.

Uhhhhh. What did you say:_paranoid

Most of my comments have been pointless since posting that pic. :D
