Ok, thanks Dave. That is what I did to my seat brackets when I put the new seats in my car. I've wondered how many people modify the floorpans to get the seats to sit lower or any other modifications they do for seat fitment. I think DSE actually does modify the floorpans a bit for seat fitment if necesssary...just thinking out loud. Again, cool stuff going on with your ride.

Yes, we talked about the floor plans too. And I'm just glad we didn't have to go that far. Lucky I am only 6' and not taller.

And thanks!

Yes....... we will have the Blu Balz for an appetizer, then a Payback burger for the main course, and a Dougie Fresh salad. For dessert, we will have the Houbaugh cheesecake!

He doesn't post often, but when he does, it's usually a doozie.

I agree with Vince, hell of a good wheel man. Your car seems to be working well and it was wounded so even more impressive. I like that little 377. Tear it apart and fix it before it BLOWS. I bet you broke a ring. A compression check will figure that one out.

Not that loud? I thought it was the 1987 Daytona 500 when Richie fired it up next to my trailer. Sounded really good!

Default Hate that you hurt the motor

Gives you the excuse to put the one in that you have been gathering parts for this last year.

Never did see where you mentioned the brakes. Did you like the new pads?

Glad you were able to hold up physically, that has to be the brightest spot of the entire journey.

For a fat motor its not very jolly.

But I'm officially addicted to its sound and that shifting.

As far as all the cars' issues; you're a flexible problem solver so you'll come up with something creative.

It's time to get out of bed and change your soaked drawers.
