Jeff, I believe it's now state law in Colordo that if you contract with Pinkees, you must post the build web on algores worldwide internet system...no matter what state you reside in.

I'll look into that.

You've confused getting stoned with automobile law...

On a road course - I get to warm up - run the same turns multiple times - mess around with entry turn in - braking zones - gears - and spend 20 minutes on track - at which time I'm worn out and need 40 minutes of rest. :>)

Okay - breaking your pinky AutoX'n' isn't about age -- it's about having a lot of LOFT.


Sieg will explain it to you.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA --- what's not simple about putting an old clapped out body on a new chassis -- adding a crate motor and transmission... wheels and tires - air 'em up and "punch it! I know the road!......"

That's a cool project. I have a ton of seat time in a '40 PU and they are bad ass. The dashes are super cool looking and the nose is just right. How about a Coyote motor and an auto 6 speed?

Oh..... let me think about that for awhile. Okay. Got it. Just hell no!

Have you ever met my friend Charley Lillard? He and you sound a lot alike.... "you need....." and whatever that is -- costs me money.

Don't you remember opening the hood and checking the oil? Do you remember how SMALL these engine bays are? Do you remember they're pinched - severely - in the nose?

Have you EVER seen a BBC / Hemi / name a big block -- in a WILLYS -- actually running and driving on the street - like going somewhere..... EVER? You see them at shows -- parked - never running.... I always wonder how the hell they got there. There's a reason for never seeing one actually going somewhere on it's own wubba.
