133mph trap!

"...torch cut by somebody with Parkinson's..."

I've been looking at a Zephyr 2-door (non-boxtop) for possible use as a track day car. My friend thinks I've got a screw loose, but I think it would be awesome / hilarious - looks like a Grandma car, but with Max Motorsports parts underneath and a 5.3/5.7 or SBF.

Thanks bud! hopefully a new camera is in the works, and quality will increase a bit. I have a 77 nova concours coming my way for the turbo swap treatment. I hope to document every step of it's upgrades, including a retrofit r134 a/c system.

If you do run your own business, then you should definitely learn about cost accounting...

I think I have a good grasp on the elements of cost.

andrew I think it's fair to say you and I see things different ways. I find you very irritating. please don't comment on my threads anymore. I don't comment on yours.
