It looked red, but you also said the camera phone didn't capture it. I was like it looks red, but maybe it's not because of the camera. Thanks for the clarification & the pics with the Nikon. The color combos go really well together.

I missed the Weld-o-rama yesterday, Greg. Car looks off the hook! You know me, I'm one of the few here that appreciate jewelry on a car :lol:

At GGuys yesterday Rob and I saw your color combo on a hot rod. All Robo kept talking about was that it didn't have an LS motor :D

:cheers:

I figured that out… and decided to give you crap anyway. Just because that's the way I am…


Even the big camera didn't get the color right - I'd take a pic - look at the pic and take another one… I finally just gave up. None of them (took 20 maybe!) looked like the color as seen with the eyes. But you get the combo. It's a been there done that combination that is timeless and works.

WTF! I haven't posted much for the last 22 days and my average post count was dropping like a rock! So much time - and so little to do….


The good thing about Rob is his Starbucks Gold card… oh yeah… and that he's too tall to fit in a '33. Wait til he gets a ride in your Camaro… and that LS scares the crap out of him - well - that, or it might be your driving. That'll turn his cheek!

You forgot to mention my track record on eateries. Salt Lick was my call.

I think you said it best, "If CHARLEY can fit on a CrazyCart -- then you sure as hell ought to fit in a '33 Ford…."

:mock: Just throw me the keys and I'll see what I think about the LS.


Will Ron's LS be different than Matt's? After riding in Matt's I gave it 2 style points.:lmao:

You should have done this color combo.:rolleyes:

Three pages worth of weekend posts after only a couple of car pics ought to pump your count up again! Holy Cow!!!

As always, the car is looking spectacular!

Ok.. so I have to tell this SEMA story..

Standing @ the Ridetech booth with Greg & Sieg discussing shocks.. Greg is pulling the lever on the shock display educating Sieg on shocks.. I walk in & jump in the conversation.. About 10 minutes into the conversation.. Greg spots Roy Brizio out of the corner of his eye & leaves me & Sieg standing thier in the middle of his educated shock class running after Roy like a school girl chasing after him.. I have never seen Greg chase after somebody but thought it was funnier than hell.. Gets back & I start teasing him about it.. Tells me.. You don't understand.. I will probably not be able to see him again to talk here @ SEMA.. & he is painting my car next week.. thought it but did not tell him.. "ROY BRIZIO" groupie!! :D

Sorry buddy! but had to tease you about that one again.. I probably exaggerated the story some.. :underchair:

Car is looking great!!

Sounds like someone is JEALOUS........

Sorry, I could not leave that open door alone..... You left the door wide freakin open with a big fat "Enter Here" sign.

GregWeld 11-25-2013 08:17 PM

Let's see -- talk to Chris -- or talk to The Briz and Mumford… Hmmmmmmmm



Oh yeah - and he's building a car for me… Well that settles it then - Guess I'm a Briz groupie.

LS7 Z/28 11-26-2013 03:14 PM

I love the color you went with Greg, this thing is truly cool. A little bit of Silver and Lime Green pinstriping on there and you've got Seattle Seahawk colors. Awesome.

GregWeld 11-27-2013 04:13 PM

Hey Casey ---- I WAS a Vikings fan until the shizzle hit the fan with a certain player and my daughter Monday…. I'm sure you've seen it on the news. Nuff said.

Dave (at Brizio's) asked me about pin stripping it -- and I don't think I want any on it… YET -- I'll leave it at YET -- because I want to live with it for awhile. I'm really not a huge fan of pin stripping… but have always liked the accent on the louvers if done correctly -- but on the other hand -- it adds a certain "flavor" that is something I'm not sure I want going on with this build.

I've had this picture blown up to a 24" X 36" (paper targets) and we're going to use them at SEMA next year at Range 702… There's a certain automatic that I'd like to pull the trigger on again a few times (80 bucks - 80 bucks - 80 bucks….) because that's the worst picture that SIEG has ever taken - let alone had the blu balz to post.


Oh yeah --- and my guess is -- the guy on the left is worth more --- by 4 or 5 times! Maybe even way more! But nobody cares (least of all HIM) -- he's just a good guy and a real hot rodder!!

ccracin 11-27-2013 04:22 PM

Classy, that's what this bucket of bolts is! Very very nice, buddy. I'm, getting anxious for you! Wish I could make it to the unveiling. :cool:

Thanks Chad!! I wasn't all that excited until I was there last week and saw the body dropped and the color - which is exactly the color I wanted. Now I'm ready to have it done!!

glassman 11-27-2013 05:49 PM

Greg, isn't it nice when you go see a project and when you get there its just "right" the way you picture'd it in your mind. Congrats, thats no small feat.'
Is the unvieling open to the public? at the Grand National roadster show in LA?

anyways, looking fanfriggentastic!!!

GregWeld 11-27-2013 06:02 PM

Yeah Mike --- It's just going to be in the Brizio booth -- I think he's taking 9 cars down for the show.

I have to go down after I get home from Carmel (where I'm at now) because the car is going to Sid Chavers for upholstery on Dec 9th --- so it should be even more complete then -- and that's when I'll work with Sid on what the interior should be --- that way I have a real good chance to screw up a perfectly nice little car.


GNRS is January -- so when you toss Xmas and New Years in there - there's not much time left!!

The difference between the two shops might as well be the difference between two oceans. Well… let me put it a different way. One shop was like a toilet bowl in a run down gas station on the edge of town… the other is like
a Presidential Suite.
