Thanks Cris!

I kept telling Rudy that I was just trying to protect my sister... I wanted her to have a safe car to drive. HAHAHAHAHAHA

It's all about just giving back... whether a guy has the skills and helps someone - or has parts that aren't being used and never will be - or a little extra dough that would make a difference in someone else's life....

To me -- it's like volunteering at the RTTC events etc. Without volunteers - we have no events.

Great story Greg! After reading your first post about the 383 with 624hp, you had me guessing how you got there. The big 6-71 a few posts later gave me the answer. Very nice!

Nice write up Greg. You guys did a great job. Its nice to see you and Rudy are good friends and enjoy the same things. I'm lucky to be close to my family too, except I'm the only one crazy enough to try a build like this.
Way to go!:thumbsup:

nice work as usual! love the stainless lines. This is pretty much what we find. A car comes in and you end up chasing all the "ugly" stuff...wiring, etc- hard to know where to stop

You need to change that tool BS in your signature.

If SAR can charge whatever bucks per hour, you can double it at your shop. :D

Seriously, that's some serious stuff there. Who'da known.

Man Im with flash on this one.

Skrew what everyone says about you, that sig shiat is BS "I have some tools... would someday like to have some skill using them..."

The only thing you proved here is that you actually do know how to use them.

So, now I'm a little confused and not sure if I should ever believe anything you say around here.:rofl:

BTW, nice work my friend :hail: :cheers:

Thanks Marty!

Many "shops" wish they had the stuff in my shed! :unibrow:

Thank you.... I think. :lol:

.. Did you really think I invested all that time and effort and $$ for that kind of stuff and not know just a little bit about what it takes to do the work too?":

Well, if I'm being honest here.... With all the Mr money bags comments around here it's kinda what I thought. :_paranoid and slightly joking.

I figured you knew something based on your support around here, just didn't know you used the goods collected.

However, I have a new found love for you :D and I'm impressed that you use your tools when you can. Not only do you have a nice shed set up, I also noticed (from the car loading to trailer picture) it's placed in a very nice scenic location. :bow:

Now Im just plain jealous. :cheers:

Sweet project! You're a good dude GW :thumbsup:

As others have said, I hope I am in a position one day to give back as much as this guy has.

Too funny.... yeah -- the neighborhood I live in is not particularly a "hot rod" neighborhood.. That's not my house or trailer. That house is a dump... and they don't take care of the yard (a pet peeve of mine!) but it's for sale and hopefully the new people do a better job. I live in a cheap house based on where I live... a real house is 5MM and up... I live on the wrong side of the tracks but I have an acre and a quarter that is flat - on a corner - with a separate driveway for the shed... and that's what I want. I don't give a hoot about the "address". Not important to me. The trailer is Rudy's - which is why he gets my old one when the new one gets here... my old one isn't worth much and I'd rather give it to him than sell it. He can sells his and pocket the $$

Not bragging and not patting myself on the back... facts is just facts.... but I do more car stuff in a month than most do in a year... and it's been that way for as long as I care to remember. The only guy I know that does more "car stuff" is Charley... unless of course - you're a professional. But I'm talking about going places etc not just working on them.

I've restored and built and modified more cars than I can remember -- maybe 30 or 40 - maybe more... I'm old - I can't remember what I had for breakfast. :D

I just don't post the stuff that I do unless I think it's of interest. And it's not like I'm building SEMA cars... or Riddler winners. It's just hot rodding stuff...

Just to piss ya off a little more.... What I jump in after a day spent in the shed...

The shed is to the left side of the trees... so you can't really see it (planned that way). We excavated in order to set the shop WAY down so you can't see much (anything) over the fence etc.
