I just wanted to give a shout out and thank you to Eric Griffith of Griffith Metal Shaping and SW for their hospitality this week. I was in south Texas this week for business. At the last minute, I had a partial day open up with nothing going on so I hopped in the rental car and headed to Austin to look around. By chance I remembered SW (Streetking) and Eric Griffith (Built SW's Camaro) were in Austin. I gave Eric a call to see if I could stop by and meet another forum member. He said come on over. It was great meeting him and checking his shop out. He is a seriously talented dude. He had Carbuff's Trans-Am in the shop. Wow what a fantastic car. While we were talking he said he had to run over to SW's place to give him a hand. I asked if I could follow along and again, no problem. Once we were there, SW greeted us and proceeded to show me a few of his cars. I'm wondering if he wants to adopt a grown man. He has some serious toys! The Camaro he has for sale on here is beautiful. It is clean and very well executed. More important is what a cool guy too. I very much appreciate these 2 taking time with no notice to show me around and help me kill some time. It's great putting faces and real names to the screen names.

Thanks Very much Eric! You have some serious talent, keep up the great work! Let's keep in touch.

SW, Like wise thank you very much! Maybe next time i can twist your arm into a ride in one of your beasts!

What a cool community we have!

Chad I think you need to get in a very long line for adoption.

Two super guys and yes it is a great community.

Bryan,

Your car is Bad A$$! Is that a Wegner Motor in it? It looks like it has some of the same parts we have on ours. If so, how do you like it?

Thanx! Glad you were able to check it out. Too bad you couldn't hear it run or ride in it, but I'll have it back on the road next weekend.

It's the Wegner front drive kit, which I really like, but the motor was not built by them...
