Cheers! I am 24 and never could be bothered with anything but cars, or my girlfriend either. You have a killer project started man, keep it up!

At 22 I was still in the Navy .Thought I was doing well with a house at 25
Just a beer here and there for me too .....


If I had 700 hp at 22 I would probably still be locked up

You have got to put that on the Dyno. There is NO WAY I would put that in my car before seeing some numbers. Hook it up and make some pulls so she is ready when you get the car done

Brings back the memories...
At 22 my 67 Camaro had the 396 swapped in, and it was two years past the restoration that happened when the 396 went in. The car was paid off, and I was busy paying off my girlfriend's debt (now wife) so that we could pay for our wedding at 23.
Keep the car, and keep it paid off!
