'69 Camaro finally fires up
 
http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/o..._VIDEO0005.jpg

Yep, that is Bryan's car, project Alchemy. And this should be news to him that it's running. I figured I'd have a little fun and post this up as a game. Who can best guess how long it is going to take Bryan to drive over to the shop to hear his car run? Just post up what time you think he will get there. Will he be waiting for the gate to open in the morning? Or will he pretend to roll in casually in the afternoon? :lol:

I'll make sure that I mail out a shop shirt to whoever gets closest. Said shirt can even be autographed by the famous Bad Penny (or Penny's owner, but that probably isn't as cool) to insure that it is a collector's item.

As soon as the shop opens....

I say he tried to break into the shop around 4am, get arrested but should be out on bail by 9:15am.

That'll still give him enough time to make a quick stop back there around 9:25 am before heading into work.

Holy crap! That's my car. All the sudden I'm sick and can't go to work. :lol:

That would be this car:
https://lateral-g.net/forums/show...ht=gt2+mustang

It found its way over for final assembly, wiring, etc. It's a well built car, and should be a lot of fun when done. Also, it has one of the biggest turbos I've ever seen.

I say Bryan shows up at 9am if he saw this at 8:30. Doesn't matter where he's coming from :lol:

It's way too late for donuts. I'm on my way with a case of Bud Light. :lol:

11:45... Do I win one of those shirts for having the closest time?

I want your autograph on it too Matt since you have had your car done twice in less time than it has taken mine to get done once.... What's your secret... A competent shop? Gotta find me one of those... The shirt should tied me over in the mean time. I can wear it showing BOS as the benchmark for the new shops to live up to.

Patch, let's see a video of that mean machine running so we can all hear it roar.

2:39pm Pacific time was my arrival. Matt's gonna have to make the call. Thank God I'm not the judge. It could be a life threatening situation getting caught between two guys fighting over Steve Rupp memorabilia. :lol:

Nice. Those look like the Holley valve covers? I was looking at those and seem like a good buy. I just wish the coils mounted at same angle for both sides. I still may give them try.

Thanks! Yes, they are Holleys and they are definitely a good buy. At first I thought I wouldn't like the angles, but, I'm ok with them.

You know what guys, I'm not sure who technically won, but at least several of the responses given are worthy of autographed apparel :D

Tomorrow I'm tied up picking up parts for an oil pan swap/upgrade to try to insure my car doesn't blow up at the upcoming RTTC event, but as soon as I get that taken care of, I'll make sure to get in contact with you guys and get a few more shirts autographed by Bad Penny!

Matt

p.s. Jeff I'll sign one in honor of my '69 just for you, haha.

Richio1 03-02-2012 04:53 PM

:thumbsup: :willy: :hail: :woot:

I will wear it with pride....
