Ted, for you pictures and peeing are like a fire hydrant to a dog. It is not that you need to use it but you hate to pass up a good opportunity.

:lol: And, like a dog, Ted likes to take pictures at the same spot! :lol: Ya know, that spot in front of a house that has a great view of Mt Rainier in the background? No no Ted, stay away from the bushes, no peeing here... oh Ted, for God's sake, get back in the car!

Just kidding with you Ted!!!!! (Greg awaits demerits for the gas cap orientation. Darn you Ted, EVERY time I get gas I think about this now, and the problem is I DON'T EVEN KNOW WHICH WAY IT IS "SUPPOSED" TO GO!!!)

Thanks Tom I'm real happy with the color.There is a couple of imperfections in the clear. I'm going to remove all the trim and he's going to color sand it and clear the car again. Through all of this we have become friends and he really likes these cars. Something about the body lines. He bought a 68 and after he finishes a camaro for his daughter we are gonna stuff some horsepower in it. He's talking a LS3, 9" rear end etc... Maybe by the end of the year. I'm pushing for a SR but he's an old muscle car guy. It will be interesting to see what happens.

Loaded and ready to drive at Buttonwillow Raceway Park for the weekend.. Cannot wait to run it hard, even though it's still running Kevin's old original street motor..
