Well not really newbe but I mostly lurk !
The only upside of winter is instead of spending money racing and buying parts you get to tear down and do big stuff ! There is still a great market out there for custom and speed parts but the economy sucs and our vendors , tracks , and sponsors need to know we and the sport are alive and well and we can't wait to go faster and look better doing it. My son does custom paint , aero kits , Lambo Doors and stuff and he is really busy nearly always 6 days a week and sometimes Sunday. I have the Vette in the Tranny Shop for Tranny Overhaul and hardened parts and the custom converter is getting a makeover as well ! Got two BFG 315 x 35 Drag Radials ready to mount. If we have time it got a couple scratches so it may get paint too. Our Monte Carlo Drag Car is getting new black paint with red SS striping a new glass nose and sheetmetal dash , New Harness . Headers shot peened and powder coated New M/T skinnies , Plug Wires , Trans Brake cable w/mushroom button ! My Sons GT Mustang Just Got A Cobra R 4 hood new custom exhaust , Diablo Custom programmable computer , Overhauled T 45 and Racing Clutch ! Next it gets paint ! Thats a load right there but of course I see a spare bullet for the MC and some Gas in the future and a procharger for both the Vette and the Mustang ! You know ! It never stops ! |

Well, I wish Santa was bringing it to me, but looks like I'm gifting myself!! Mine is more than a winter project since it started a while ago. Both my motor and transmission are out for rebuilding. It won't be long, until Spring and I'm getting excited to see how that 383 will feel.

Nor should it in my book! Sounds like a lot of stuff happening to keep you out of trouble. Welcome to the site, lots of good info if you need it, or to share you knowledge with the Guru's. Project pics are always good! |

Thanks guys ! My Tranny Overhaul and converter is my Christmas present from my son ! I set him up in business cause being a gearhead I needed a shop so duh ! LOL
He is doing a custom paint job 2010 Corvette Yellow on the tranny shop owners 1986 Vette . Its called Bartering Guys ! He is putting a seal in the Manuel Body 350 in the Monte Carlo too ! We are both drag racers though not too serious we just like to have fun race each other and anyone else who steps up to the lights ! In the shop for total restoration are customers 1950 Chevy coupe with Mouse Power and a 1965 Impala SS and I have been working on a beautiful 1961 Ford Galaxie 500 Starliner Convertible Blood Red w/ rolled Red and White Interior. It's a neighbors prize possession ! Putting Sanderson headers and freeze plugs on the 390 . I can't even remember the last full frame car I worked on ! Likely my old 56 chevy gasser from the early seventies. |
