Thanks everyone.

I'm already a forum member on here, Tim@TMI, but that's my work account. This is my personal account.

I currently have a 66 Chevelle, 67 Nova, 62 Cadillac Limo(factory). Just an all around car guy though.

Here's pictures of my stuff:


I don't have any pictures of the Nova for whatever reason, but you can see it popping out behind in this picture. Right now it's going through some updating. I'll track progress on here:


And here's my limo. I just fell in love with this massive boat about 5 years ago and had to have it. Its such a fun and neat car:



And here's a 65 Chevelle I installed an LS2 and 5 speed in along with a bunch of other work. Not my car, but a close buddies car:

Welcome Tim, nice selection of rides!

I'm with you on the Caddy, when the occasion is right they're too much fun!

The Caddy is just one massive boat. It literally is the most comfortable riding car I have ever been in. Plus it's not pretty like the Chevelle...I don't have to worry about it so much getting scratched or anything.

What's a total trip about it...it gets more attention than the Chevelle. It's amazing the people that come up and want to talk cars. For instance this real snoody looking business woman walked up to me and I thought she was going to give me crap for some odd reason. She told me the story of how embarrassed she was in elementary school because her Mom drove a 59 Caddy. She made her Mom drop her off a block from school so she wouldn't be seen with the car!

The INTMD8 Caddy on this board is still hands down my favorite build.

About 20 years ago I missed out on a '61 Coupe Deville one owner 67K miles, good original silver paint, plastic still on the rear seats........$1,750. I was polite and waited to call at 7 a.m. a friend had already called earlier that morning...........3 weeks later he drove it in our caravan to the Jim Davis Memorial Drags at Sears Point, only issue on the 1,200 mile trip was a trans line leak that was easily fix. Missing that one still haunts me.

They can still be had for cheap! For whatever reason, they just don't hold value like a Chevelle or Camaro does. You can find decent drivers for 2-3K.

Only problem with them is that they are REALLY expensive to fix up, and then they aren't worth it. So you have to really want the car, not look at it as an investment.
