Ok Jim, just for you I actually did something on the 27. :) Today I hauled my roll bar and a switch panel to your neck of the woods to have them chromed. Went to Gulf Plating in the Lauderdale...

Oh, THAT truck! :o:o I even posted on that thread, but you haven't done any more updating on it since 6/07, and since I don't remember what I had for lunch today, the chances of me remembering that...

Wait a minute Ken, what "new" truck? I know about the sedan you are doing, your roadsters, and your old truck, but did I miss something? I know my memory is getting worse, but this is the first I...

Jim, I don't know how I will decide......I've never had that problem before. Maybe we need to ask an expert who has more than one roadster.........like Ken! :D For him it is like those underwear...

No, strangely enough the 23 is roomier leg wise. I think it is because the 27 is channeled 5 inches and the 23 only 3 inches. Now footroom is another issue. Because the 23 is so low the 350 turbo...

Thanks and you didn't even need to wrap it up for me or put a bow on it. :):)

Don

Well, I could be wrong.......I went on my English/Kiwi converter site and that was on there. :D Hope it isn't like one of those things where you try to be cool and speak someone elses language and...

G'Day Mate. (see, I'm up on my Kiwi too! :D) Post up those pictures, but from the sounds of it you shouldn't have any clearance issues.

I also got my steering temporarily installed. I thought I was going to shorten the steering column to put the wheel closer to the dash, but I can't. The car is channeled 5 inches and even sitting...

Whiplash, I'm really happy to see you back in the garage working on it. I know what you mean about the aches and pains. After using the tube bender to bend up my roll bar the other night I was sore...

Hehe, no, the reason I changed user names is because way back in the beginning my membership kept disappearing.......I couldn't log on. I tried a couple of times and kept saying I was having...

No problem at all Whiplash, I'll take some shots tomorrow when I am at the shop and some measurements too. I purposefully built the 27 with lots of ground clearance which is why the engine sits so...

Thanks guys (and Barb :)) It has it's share of flaws, but I like em to drive, so it will get lots of road rash in short order I'm sure. And yes, I am glad the distributor is in the front otherwise...

Thanks guys. No vroom vroom noises, but I sure did sit and stare at it a lot. :D Now that it is going together I wonder why I let it sit for these past 11 or 12 years without doing anything with it...

Last night I decided to take the bull by the horns and bend up my roll bar by myself. Dan was working late and I figured how hard could it be to do it by myself, as long as I measured carefully. So...

No, don't apologize, I actually enjoy it when a thread derails for a little bit and actually do it to myself quite a bit. Every once in a while I throw in a cat or some other diversion just to keep...

Hehe, come on guys, it was just a funny picture. :LOL::LOL::LOL::LOL:

Don

Oh, we Americans have come a long way. We used to hang Public Officials we didn't like, now we are much more civilized. Connecticut had the choice of either apologizing or we were going to give...

:LOL::LOL::LOL: That's pretty good Bob. I have to admit, even I am a little disappointed in some of the things he has done. I guess history will tell.

Don

Thanks Brick. Lord knows that is just .0000000001 of a payback to Bob for the "cutie collection" he has adorned my threads with over the years. :LOL: I still wonder where he comes up with...

Well Whiplash, Bob is a little down right now. His roadtrip took him to his heros home town in Connecticut, only to find out he doesn't live there any more. Something about they rode him out of...

[QUOTE=Bob Parmenter;390747]For you it would be a shorter trip than for most....:LOL:

Soooo, I take off on a road trip away from the 'puter for several days and it's pile on time huh?:D

"Road...

I prefer to think of all those extra holes as lightning holes Jack. I figure I save .0005 ounce every time I misjudge where something goes.:LOL: As my eyes get worse over the years my cars tend to...

I think I vaguely remember hearing something about radial tires, but I personally have never seen a set Whiplash.:D I've always been a bias ply kind of guy, but I am definitely going to put a set of...

Thanks Steve. Yep, the heat has been brutal this year. Lately it's gotten into the Summer pattern of raining almost every afternoon, and sometimes that brings some relief but sometimes it just...
