Hoo yeah, I got me some pictures....when I get some time later on, I'll try to post them. Essentially, I got the car complete as a turn-key roller. Came set up with a 283 Chev and a Turbo 350. Right now, I've got a new Goodwrench 350 in the frame rails, and that's about it. I started taking the joker apart, and the further I got, the more I realized how very wrong much of it was put back together. A hack job I could almost understand, but there were so many things that are wrong with it from a safety standpoint that I'm amazed I never wrecked it the brief time it was roadworthy. DRG, this one's my baby, and I'd like to go almost 50's retro with it...almost. I know the 350 doesn't earn points, but it'll do until I can really whip up something neat. I'm just waist deep in the thing now, and it's kinda looking like a long journey ahead...but I think that's why I'm here. All the help will be very much appreciated.
I saw last night on fb about John. The world sure lost a great one. I'm going to miss his humor, advice, and perspective from another portion of the world. Rest in Peace Johnboy.
