Default Winter project comming to end(PICS)
I fired it up tonight for the 1st time since early November of last year. WOW, how I missed the sound of that GMMG.

The color scheme really came together. There is still more to do with painting parts, but its a start. For those who would like to see it in person, we will be attending the f-body gathering in Atlanta, we will be heading to Superfest in Mi, and ending with BG.

Next on the list, send the tranny off to Rockland Standard Gear for a built rebuild and install the Exedy clutch. Then the car will be ready to enjoy. I can't wait.

No Way, Don't you know its against the law to have an SS in hibernation longer than 6 months . I know your pain. Just wait till you drive it for the first time, those memories come back so strong.

Thanks for the compliment.

You don't know how much I wish the rain would stop. Its getting to be a pain to build custom homes in this crappy weather.

You working on Sunday? I hope to get it out and head out to Asheville.

Yes, that is what it is. Just a Summit, none logo, guage. I tought it would look better than a plug.

Thanks again for all the compliments
