Default Anyone ever talk to Louie?

Since we have a real tech site... I think it would be great to invite ol' Louie to post here.

Altough not everyone always agreed with Louie's view points had always added good tech discussions.

I really like where he was going with the old man build threads!

Anyone know him and could pass this url on to him?

Thanx

Yeah, I was following those old man cam/car discussions and then he was gone. Sure wish we could get that discussion started up again.

I emailed Louie over the weekend. He said he would come by for a visit as long as he could rag on the modular mustangs in the lounge lol.

I told him Bob Cosby would be waiting for him <img src="images/icons/wink.gif" border="0">

grin sniff, car of my dreams is a square volvo station wagon with woodgrain and built in child seats. At least it has a turbo and a 5 speed auto. I'm active on the Volvo and VW boards. Well know in fact (infamous). Kind of strange how fast you can take what you know and apply to new other cars.

Yes PSJ, JS is in the 8s but it ain't and never was a stock motor, stock trans, stock rear, nor does it use pump gas, nor drive down the street. All important criteria that you may have failed to remember. Well the first one was stock, what was that 4, 5 motors ago? I've lost count maybe it is 10 or more now? LOL
