Recklessly! Well within the limits of reasonable control at all times. :rules:

This Chief also races a dirt track car. ;)

I read your thread from the beginning and just finished after a couple days of reading. What a great build and thanks for sharing.

Well 6 days ago it looked like Norwood had a very good chance of getting barbequed in the Holiday Farm Fire in the McKenzie River Valley. The 'rest home' where the car resides went to Level 3 Go Now evacuation status at 1:30 pm Tuesday from the fire that started 36 miles up river. The fire traveled 21 miles west in less than 14 hours!

Late Saturday the area went back to level 2 as the fire appears to have been contained 5 miles east of the 'rest home' after consuming 165,000 acres in 3.5 days.

Many friends up the valley aren't nearly as fortunate.

'50 Ford Woody on the rack, '56 Ford pickup, '32 Ford Dearborn Deuce Coupe (body #1) and a few others in the shop. Norwood's the ugly stepchild of the group. :D

Oh man... Can't believe what the West\Northwest has gone through this fire season. Thankful Norwood is safe for now.

WSSix 09-15-2020 07:19 PM

I'm glad to hear you, the family, and the car made it out ok. Hope everyone else in the area is doing well, too.

Any updates on this bad boy?

Norwood is still alive 😉

Older video, though nothing has changed.

My daily driver the last 7 years still puts a smile on my face every time I drive it. 292 whp @5800 364 wtq @3400 through the stock cat back exhaust. Big Brembo brakes, numerous suspension upgrades, etc.

So poor Norwood is mostly a 'special events' car.

camcojb 02-12-2025 02:04 PM

Daily driver looks like fun. :thumbsup:

DBasher 02-12-2025 02:22 PM

"special events car" haha so you don't drive it...whens the last time you saw it?

kissy face emoji

Roscoe03 02-13-2025 07:40 PM

Glad to hear you still have the car! The Soobi looks sweet and I bet with awd, is a blast to drive.

This is still one of my favorite builds on this site due to the amount of detail you posted about as your build progressed.

I take care of my buddy's property (who garages it) while he's in Meas, AZ Oct-April. I'm never too far from good old Norwood. It's about 15 minutes from my place via one of my favorite roads.... 20 minutes if you're driving. :D

Thanks, very much appreciate your words.

There's still a significant amount of sentimental value in the car, for multiple reasons after 36 years of ownership. It's still a respectable driver, and a set of Michelin Pilot Sport 4 tires will make it even better.

Just had the Subie out in the snow today and it never fails to impress. Nor do the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 A/S in Oregon weather.

The Camaro just don't do that sh*t! :lol:
