Joe, you know something? It's quite an accomplishment to have a car on this board and have it recognised for anything. Yet it's quite a huge accomplishment to have an LT1 style car and have it become a legend. That's some kind of feat.

That's a feat in and of itself....the 315's are a BITCH to source, but you should like the GSD3's. Glad to hear your okay man... you and cars are not getting along at all. My sister was hit a couple of weeks ago, and yesterday went over a railroad crossing, and a piece of concrete punched through the oil pan of the rental....she's probly the reason you can't find a rental....she's killing them faster than enterprise can buy them..... lol
