Actually pinstriping has been around for a thousand years and if you'd get off your high horse and visit my site, you might have learned that, but that might be too easy for a guy like you, mister Scamp

I'm not the one on the high horse that cannot even give anybody one single COMPLETE positive comment on their work. You even insulted the guy with the fish on facebook. Not everybody wants to hear "I got 50 years experience" all the time. Take that from somebody who learned it the hard way. You're a cool old dude Joey, but man you gotta way about you that's like fingernails on a chalkboard when you want to. Oh when I said "pinstriping" I meant automotive pinstriping. Kinda tough for that to be around a thousand years. Know what I mean vern? Lighten up man. You need to realize ain't everybody the perfect God you are. I have looked all over your site. You do some fine work. But remember, just like there's always a faster car, there's always a better pinstriper.

Thanks for all the positive comments guy's, it's nice to hear from your peers, good or bad, that's what keeps me going. I have no problem with a little nutbustin', so long as you can take it as well as dish it out. Unfortunately between all the F@#$ing snow, and now I have a cold, I haven't been out to the shop all week. I'll get some new pics soon.

I dragged my sick a$$ out to the garage today for a little while. Installed the new flexplate (the rusty one is the truck one ), buttoned up the gas tank, and layed out the "Do it yourself" exhaust system.

63 was first year for this body style, and had the wiper motor under the dash. For 64 they moved it to the engine compartment to make room for a V8. Good thing the Hemi dosen't have a dizzy....

Getting a lot of little stuff done this weekend. Made up my heater hoses, and finished installing the shift kit in the trans, this thing is as big as a battleship, so I thought gray would be appropriate.

[crazybarracuda]

i dont know if this was asked but where did you pick up your 5.7 and how much did you pay for it if you dont mind me asking.

I bought it off Ebay, brand new in the crate, 3k to my door.

[rapidtransitric]

great stuff tin. always looking forward to your progress

[momoparman]

I like the epoxy grey look....like a industrial machine or a huge engine you would find in a ship or a power plant.

Oh I am concerned about those heater hoses running along the manifold.

Aren't you worried that the water is gonna get hot?
