one hell of a gearhead's friday.

I had been sick for 3 days straight, couchridden with horrible pain. My pain comes in good days and bad days. I'm at about a half month good days and half in pain. It'll get better with a new doc and time. Today was amazing!

Started the day off at 7am with Phil Schmidt of PS engineering whom is not only one of the nicest guys I've ever dealt with, we share a lot in common. RC cars, track cars etc. 3 of my trans am style lugnuts were an odd size so I limped over there in the early morning. He didn't have any on hand. How does a real craftsman handle this? Make some real quick.



Phil is an awesome guy. He also has a few toys around the shop!




Can am wheels?

Phil's Grocery getter. a Rondeau

Stopped by johnson's alignment to see if they could align the car. They have some nice Pcar toys, but weren't open, so I called Jim Simpson up in hollywood and flew on up the 110 in the rain.


Jim Simpson is the best in LA for alignment, along with Johnsons depending where ya live. Some nice classics he works with.


Real GT500KR





Great color combo on the tbird


Jim's grocery getter. (502 powered so we get along)


Got tire?




Apparently the owner of this car (packard) is related to the packard family somehow. With all the butchered dollheads, I was all about the odd patina.

Dane,

The wheels look great! Are those McGard lug nuts?

I was so close to ordering those, went with V-40's with matte black spoke in 18" with the longer open lug nut, now I'm questioning my decision, Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the gearhead photo tour too.
