Is it a basecoat/clear or just enamel. If it is just enamel on glass bodies they sometimes put it on so thick that it is amazing what some deep cut buff compound will take out. Have fun with it, I can't wait to see what you do....

Cool maro. Matt, IMO the Fiero's look pretty good in silver as well just as long as a lot of the black stuff you see on most of them gets a silver coat as well. How is the front end? Those cars share front ends with Chevette's which of course is prett much the worst part of the car. There are easy kits that do a Mustang II conversion. Most that have it though have then been rebodied with a fiberglass Ferrari or Lamborghini body. Crazy how many different glass lids are available for that platform. I'd personally rather just have a really clean stock GT body with some added guts.

Sweet, I've always enjoyed them. What are your plans for it. Tom, as for crate motors I just had a colleague mail me a Bimmer magazine, they sell my engine in their as a long block for only $10,995 -- a bit more than $3k.

Now at least we know why YOU got hired. Lesbian coworker influence ftw!

It is a catch 22. The rest of the civilized world may have free health care, but the hospitals and such aren't as good. For major surgery the well off from the rest of the world fly's here for having things done. I would hate to lose our capabilities just to make everything available. On the same note, there has to be some sort of compromise to still give doctors the desire to be the best but make healthcare more reachable for the normal person.

Oh. My. God. She. Was. So. Beautiful. Hot xray tech FTW. Might cause me to accidentally pull out my member and tell her it "hurts right here, can you have a close look at it"

Going to put the short shifter in tomorrow if I am lucky.

O hell yes. Long weekend ahead of me though Still a weekend, mine is starting out with a Red Stripe.

you don't

Ryan, Touche! So many options... Tom, I wasn't infering that $3k for that was a bad deal at all, but since you have an open slate to paint on it wouldn't be the route that I would choose. *grins as he pictures a Ford powerplant hiding under the hood*

I'm one to agree with this... I hadn't realized that yet either, perhaps a little to inbred.

our threads are still here, they are in the OT section SS looks the same to me, tried to register on CYV just to see but since they make you register right away I am still waiting my email.

I built the Galaxie's engine when I was 15 with no help, I did have a little labor help but from a very non-mechanical person. I just read a few books and manuals and ripped the motor out apart and slammed her back together. To get 400hp reliably you won't need to spend $1k on machining, but surely will if you shoot for 500. Really a bore/hone should be all you need. For $3k you should be able to do the whole build and get a set of better heads. I have no idea on the induction system on any GM, but I would imagine some minor changes could take care of the front end and your recent cats/exhaust should take care of the back. What power does your car have stock?

Tom, you lost me on this one. $3k for only 400hp on a Chevy small block??? I think you could build something as potent cheaper, or better yet a lot more so for the same.

Get a license beeyotch, we'll go bang some rocks I go to a spot about 15 minutes from you guys off of prices fork road. Best small mouth fishing size wise around. Also shallow as a mofo Chit, I might come out for that.

Looking good so far!

Welcome to SSA!

Not bad here either, but again not open for a few weeks. If any of you make it this way, I'd be glad to take you out. I am always looking for an excuse to fish. Actually as the sticker on my boat trailer says, "work is for people who don't fish."

Not too late, almost though. Think I am going to go order the KDW2's in hope that they will last longer than the Yoko's (which I had on my 328i and loved but they just didn't last at all). I'd love to come for a ride though, hopefully sometime this year I will make it out your way!

Nice, TOP

Ah pics, should have known. It is my dad. Mint 26 T, beat to ell 31 A. Been in storage for a while and I am not even sure where. Eventually I will get some pics.

*imagines copper top*

I should really buy a vehicle first...but if you still have it tomorrow I may change my mind.
