It could be called that. Its 25 years old and I think everything was made to last just shy of that age.

Funny, I had my house built 10 years ago and it seems that everything dies about one month after the warranty expires.

Now looking at building a commercial building behind my house. I want a 50 year warranty... at that point, if I am still alive, I won't care.

I hear you, my new (more expensive than my 2 year old 69 Z/28 when I bought it) refrigerator, it was only 11 days on a Saturday night a cooling fan. The one that I replaced went to a friend for his garage and still running. When I told the appliance guy how old the one I was replacing were he said only count on 10 years from these. Planed obsolescence, it didn't give me a warm fuzzy feeling.

Some of the days it was too hot in the garage to work I spent in the cellar smoothing some of the Accessory drive brackets. Here's a few of them partially done.










They did a lousy cast job.

Cool

That looks very nice! What finish are you gonna use? Will that be too shiny for a paint to stick to properly? Just asking cuz I might detail a couple parts and then paint em .... maybe?

Wayne that looks great and I know what you mean about the Moreno brothers. I have been watching the G5R build on Camaro5 for a few years and that car is going to be insane.

Wayne if you are using spray can to paint I have used Bulldog Adhesion Promoter with good success on metal and plastic.
I think I ordered through Eastwood. Parts look nice also. Nice work.
