[mestorod70]

Hey chevymaher.
Im with you mate.
Build it the way you want it.....thats what im doing.
And the d sticks that dont like it
Can kiss my gritts too.

[flash]

Dont leave here because of how other sites are ,we like em all here .Our Malibu vert has it's original sheetmetal except for the SS hood but nothing else numbers matching .We built it to suit my wife and we enjoy it .My 72 Elky SS is a numbers car but is a smallblock so nobody likes it but I do .My 72 truck was built my way ,nothing left original but I love it . I like pretty much all old stuff with wheels .

I wouldn't leave here. You guys understand. I had a numbers car. I prefer my colors options and things like the stereo I worked a year to get in there. It is lost on some people. The numbers car isn't for me. I liked it but I wanted what I got now basically. What I really wanted in high school. My dads car souped up with stripes. Blue 68 with a vinyl top. I sat in that car for 6 years pretending to drive it.

Hell flash I hot Rod my Family car the van LOL. I love that thing. I used to get a red azz on the van site for liking a souped up 6 instead of putting a V-8 in it.
I like it because it is different. I had a million V-8's in my life I wanted to play with something else.

I was just mad and venting. This site is the best. And I like it just because there is a little of everything here. Numbers cars. Flat race cars. And hot street cars.

It was a life long dream to build this silly thing. It is exactly what I want. And I just got a temper when people act like that.

I was crying like a big baby and I am over it now.

Did some more disassembly on the 72' today...

Transmission is in! Most of the associated lines, hoses and wires for both the motor and transmission are hooked up. But both the speedometer and kick down cables that I got were wrong. Also replaced some parts of the cooling system that were in rough shape. Took a day off of wiring to work on mechanical. Now I'm working on redoing the rear drum brakes. Made some progress on one side but far from done. I hope to have it ready to fire by the end of next weekend but not sure that will happen.

The console is done and installed. All I have to do is use a heat gun around the gauges to smooth out the naugahyde. Today I finished makin a tray that goes into the storage compartment (no pic of that yet)

Spent the day grinding, welding and grinding and welding.

Front passenger side lower cowl panel may be done with one section soon enough.

That looks nice.

Took the car out to cars and coffee last Saturday. Came out of the place and was tempted to get on it, but decided to play it cool. Good thing I did, because a police officer was just around the corner with a radar gun.
