    I don't see a lot of progress pictures coming from your neck of the woods:bla: I did see "Goldie" BEFORE you bought it, nothing after:confused:

    What's going on out there, I may have to come out to Bean Town and visit:Smarty:

    He's always working on somthing:Dou:

    Regal is on the road and not bad considering how long it's been sitting. We have to hook up, I have cars that need paint, looks like you found a painter? I have a whole fleet that needs it. I'd love to get the bug painted soon, so I could put that back together over the winter, then paint the Regal, then the one I really want the GS:3gears:

    Give me a shout, I'd love to come see that car in person:TU:

    Nice, REAL NICE :rant:. Yes, work will be performed over the winter/ spring. Hopefully, another 68 or 69 GS will keep the gold car company :Do No: .
    Chris- very happy to see the car with paint on it. I didn't realize she was THAT clean under the paint/ primer when you got it home (= ANOTHER car I let slip through my fingers). Looking forward to see the finished product!
    PS: what is going on w/ the 400 engine it came with? Would like to find out what the 'knock after being warmed up' was....

    George the 400 block is still at Dan's house. The #1 & #2 Rod bearings were bad. Rick Henderson told me that when they went to load it up on the trailer it was real bad. I never tried to start it when I got it here. Someday it will get finished the way I want it. I love the color and would like to do a 4 speed conversion to it.

    Dude you'd get 10 more HP if you picked up a Super Sucker carb spacer! You already have the hole in the hood!

    Looking good!

    I need to get a new air cleaner base, the one that I have is a 1" drop base.
    I have a 1" spacer laying around somewhere or it's at Dan's house.
    My parts should be here this week then I can start to get stuff done.
    My grill is up at my parents house so I will get that at the end of the month.
    I got to get back to drinking some beers and listening to SRV:beer

    Come on deep pockets. Get somebody with long arms to pull your money out! It appears your arms are to short to do it.
