Thanks for the compliment. I have followed this build for a while. It would be a shame to not see it thru. I would definately proceed with much caution. My ex has tried to lay traps for me, I am glad I had the clearity to not fall for it. Just be careful and think about what's best for you and your kids. Taking care of #1 is the most important.

Tom-

I know I don't know ya that well, and we never seem to be able to connect when I'm down there in FL (In a non-gay way you jackasses)...but keep your chin up & let me know if I can help out. Let's see if we can pool some of the Jax talent to get some deals to go the right way. Once my time up here is done, I'll be back down in Jax...as far as I know (damn).

Don't give up- You'll kick yourself down the road. I've come so close to doing the same, seeing as how I haven't been home for more than a month at a time since the fall of 2006. My 'Bird is waiting patiently for me to get back & drop that 4.2 in it.

Don't do it! Your an inspiration to all of us old Rambler guys. No one mods these cars. Hope you pick it back up...I have really dug your project!

i would love to finish the car . it sucks to get sooo close but
im out of work again.the job market here sucks hind tit.the two industries i have worked in have gone to hell....automotive and construction.
both are dead ....because they fueled each other here. cant sell my housse because values have fallen off bad and ive been in it 2 years .
so the only thing i have left is all my new goodies to sell and keep things afloat.i wont get rid of the car because i wouldnt want to ever see anybody finish it but me .just a hang up i have.
family life is back on track .
working/testing some small business ideas with my wife ..seems to be going pretty good so far..
for all of you out there that have been effected by the economic situation i feel for you big time .....cause it blows trying to make real money without a specailized profession thats in need.

WOW
NEVER THOUGHT ID BE POSTING THIS

finally, i found a job..start tommorrow writing service for a toyota dealer.
not my dream job but it doesnt matter now .i just need a paycheck coming in.
since selling almost everything but the rolling shell and the new exterior goodies for the car im gonna go a different direction. i have had alot of time to look at the car..not good , because i want to rework almost the entire floor of the car .i have to buy a bead roller.
the car has crap for ground clearance i wanna push the motor/trans up and back in the car .i need more room for exhaust and i dont like the way i did the tubs/shock mount /rear floor of the car ... i have learned a ton since starting this project and have picked up many ideas from all of you guys . steel prices are pretty good and i might as well try and go for it..
it wont happen tommorrow but it will happen. maybe give me a month...

Good to hear about the new job Tom!! I just went over 21 years in the AF a couple of weeks ago and originally thought I would get out after 20. I think I will try and hang in there for another year or so with the job market the way it is.

[radrambler]

ty--thanks
chris--thanks, depends on what career you want after your service...but i can understand staying in for a short time just to see what gonna happen with the economy(my prediction...nothing good based on the new govt).

thanks
tom
