Wierd how that happens here. This week have 3 jobs. Sometimes nothing for a week or two at a time.. But it's ok....I don't want to be too busy....
 
Tell you what been busy with distribs this year 2-3 a week sent to me. Other years nothing till about March. Cuda is killing me really have to start hitting cores hard.
 
I think I found a guy to finish the body and paint on my 68 GTS. Was referred to me by a guy who used to work at a famous Chassis Shop ( Ken Kier Race Cars ). This guy lives nearby me and said he'd stop by and see the car. His Shop is in the next county, but only a 30min drive for me. He does mostly restoration work , not Ins work, so I hope we can get this done soon.....

I guess I missed why it wasn't finished the first round
 
Watching a new video from Nicks Garage. He got a 427 Chevy someone threw together that said it had 600 horse. He dynoe'd it and it only had 366 HP. :rofl::rofl: I can get that out of my 318 :poke::lol:
 
That's hilarious, sounds like mismatched parts.
I stopped the video for a min. but it only had 120# of compression. Oh it had Merlin heads, a Tarantula type intake with a Dominator carb but only had a gear drive hydraulic flat tappet cam and a stock type HEI distributor with a clear cap.

There used to be a Guy here on FABO names George H., Lifelong body and paint guy. He did an amazing job on a Corvette, everyone here saw. So I took the car to him in March of 2018. His house and shop are in Delaware, bout 2 1/2 hr drive from me. Engine bay , engine, front suspension, dashboard , all done before he got the car. Basically the car was done, except paint, from the dash, forward. Could actually drive the car on and off the trailer. Anyhoo...He installed A new 1pc Floor, a trunk floor, both rockers and both quarter panels. Looks like he did very nice work. Problem was , he wouldn't communicate, with me. I had to drive out there whenever I wanted to see the car or talk to him. He just would not get off his A$$ and work on the car. He had no other gig. So I went and got the car, and all the parts back, first week of Jan. So, there you have it, hope to have it in paint by May or so, so I can reassemble it.......
