I agree Steve...you are much more connected inside than I on the car show thing so I defer to your expertise in that area. I am sure there is more butt smoochin' and crap eatin' than I could stand.

Len started Year One with a 69 Trans Am. He primarily sold Mopar part in the beginning. Yes, began with a Pontiac and sold Mopar parts. That was a long time ago.

Bob, your car is awesome.

Mine will be. I know this because a Hipo car manufacterer is shoplifting my design as we speak. I have spent a small fortune on mine and it may not make one single mag. But I have a lot of support here and the truth is the truth. That means alot to me.

It's like picking Miss America.. when you have a dozen perfect women how do you pick #1?

Don't worry. Magazines are FULL of cars that copy ideas or that have had thier ideas copied.. If you car is nice you will get the ink.

Besides.. you know people in the industry.. lol

Yeah, don't you know Larry the Cable Guy or someone like that ?


Anyway, Jim, I agree with you, it may or may not make one single magazine, but you built it to have fun, and that's great.

My first story on the LS2 is due in the Sept issue I am just starting on. Then the engine mod story, 21st Century subframe story, install story and misc story..

I hope to have the car done in a month to two months.. sooner hopefully.
