The requirement is simple Doug... the ability to turn a blind eye to 99.9% of everything posted.

It's a fair question. And the answer is no. Create a task reminder to check back in 6 months.

Sad but not far from the truth... fockers.

Yep, I rode in a couple cars last weekend and realized what I am missin. Plus, it always feels faster when you're not in the drivers seat.

Envy can be an ugly trait.

What's downright scary? The picture, or the fact you are now focusing your attention on frying pans instead of oil pans?

The fiance is in charge of that!

I do enjoy the interior design and furniture selection with her I will admit.

But the car is not dead in the water... I spent an hour yesterday talking to someone about doing a set of flares.

Oh and I am still watching for a dry sump setup.

Nice to see your man enough to admit it. If you show some interest in what she is into then she will find a way to be interested in that SBC.

I bought my dry sump but it didn't make it to Phil while I was gone so I need to call and check on it tomorrow. I guarantee yours will be cheaper than mine.

Flares? Old school SCCA look to match the mouse?

I was thinking about doing a rendering to put my new set of ideas on the canvas, but I found a car I want to emulate so I don't need to spend the money on the rendering I figure.

I want to make the 68 Camaro version of this. Paint my white stripes matte black (and get rid of the little Mustang influence I inherited when I bought this car ) and rivet on the flares for a racy/industrial look. No flares molded into the body for me. I prefer the color contrast and lower cost.



I tried to buy the car but it was only $170k over my budget. Asking $175k.
