If by work of art you mean something you look at but really shouldn't even consider buying because of the ridiculous expense, then yes, I agree.

Well, in that case, yes. LOL

That's the nature of our "hobby". As they say, the only difference between men and boys are the price of their toys.

I have been collecting Hot Wheels lately ,they are cheaper ,take up less space ,dont use gas and dont need insurance. But the downside is they aint nearly as much fun.

Yesterday I had a box from Ground Up sitting on my porch with my newly rebuilt GM tilt column inside. I put it in the car and man what a difference! I didn't realize how badly worn my column shifter was and how horrible the ignition switch felt in my original non-tilt column. This thing is smooth like butter! Now the horn works again and my turn signals have a very positive feel when engaging and switching off. It is amazing the difference all new parts make!

Car was supposed to be dropped off at the shop yesterday but it just didn't happen. Today after work it will be going even if I have to call Hagerty's and have them tow it all 3 miles to the shop!

You still interested in some front brake parts?

I do like the new stance with the rear wheels. Can't wait to try it out with the MT ET Street radials as well! Just got those mounted on the same wheels I have on now and they look nice and sticky!
