Thanks Mario... I'll let you know. With some luck it will be later this year...

Rob... I think I've got it all measured out.....gonna go over it one more time today or tomorrow and place my order.

So Ned ---

I'll stop by your house on my way to WC RTTH -- have your bags packed - I'll come thru there WEDNESDAY MARCH 31st -- dropping off the Corvette C4 IRS for Deuce at a shop in Hesperia (for his 35 Ford build)... then a shop tour or two with DFRESH on Thursday...

So you'd miss work on WED - THURS - FRIDAY - be home on SUNDAY...

What say you? I've got the room... Doug will feed you... and Todd will rag on you.. What's not to like??

Or? Fly down Friday - I'll pick you at at airport... will drop you at your house on Sunday...


ROB.... YOU IN??

What are you driving down ?

Interesting.... I may take you up on this....

I really wanted to go, but didnt want to haul my car all the way down there. Figured if I wasnt bringing my car then whats the point....

[GregWeld]

Just driving Miss Daisy.... the big ol' dually -- cause I'm hauling the IRS to Hesperia (might as well - kill two birds with one stone - and what else do I have to do...LOL)

Got room for 4 in the truck... Me and 3

I haven't booked my room yet - just emailed Bill H to see what the "official" hotel was...

Who says you have to "haul" it? ....Drive it!!!

[DRJDVM's '69]

$600 in gas is what tells me to haul it

Time for an update...finally !!!!

I got my Moser Dana 60 through Frank at Prodigy, and got the final suspension all mocked up.... the final pinion angle isnt set but everything is pretty close. I did have to trim some of the rear crossmember to clear the center section at full drop, but didnt cut into the trunk. Getting the exhaust up and over should be real fun


Next was the T56 Magnum through Hurst Driveline conversions.... thanks Tony Edler and thank you Greg Weld ( he helped me avoid the sales tax hit ...)
Since we channeled the front k-frame, I did end up having to cut up the tunnel again to get a decent engine angle.....it was so sad to have to cut up some of the wonderful Race Rodz fab work...I shed a tear...what a shame. It looks like I'll have to do more tunnel work to get the driveshaft in there....oh well

The pistol grip shifter is real cool....but kinda high....I'll probably cut it down once the interior is more complete.

I like the tall shifter - kinda reminds me of a Rat Fink version!!
