Rolled the old girl out of the garage.

[Cope]

My dryer took a dump, so I had to move EVERYTHING out of my little one car garage.

Well everything includes this old girl!
Man it's been a long time since she seen the sun. Shes looking a little rough but nothing a good wash and some new tires wont cure. I realy need to make some room in the shop and finish this car.
The dumb this is, I have all the parts to do it...
I even got a fresh blower bottom end ready to go. (This was just a mock up motor)

Man, I LOVE THIS CAR!!

nothing on the car is newer than 1950, she even has the old dragway stickers still on the window.

It's just one of those things out of sight, out of mind but I realy want to push this car to the front of the line. To bad my bank account won't allow me the time to stop what I'm doing and finish the dam car....


(Sigh.) Oh well back in the garage she goes..

(For now!)

Ok, I lied. The column and column mount are new. Gonna have to find an old one somewhere.

Enjoy!

I know. she deserves better, but I got an A body race car that sucks up all my free cash and I'm (trying to) save money to buy a ring and get married.....

And no, selling a car ain't happening!
