I've had this new garage for almost a year and finally made enough room to get it in it's new doghouse and still work on sidework. Its only been down since 2002 so i think mustangdan still has me beat.
Combo for those who don't know or forgot: 357cu/in windsor w/GT40x heads, powerglide w/brake, ptc convertor, 9" with all strange components and a little motivation from an innovative gt80 turbo blowing through a holley.

Can anyone shrink these pics for me i believe they're too big?

Good to see you making some forward progress! If you have microsoft picture manager you can use that to resize the pix to be web page friendly.

ok Ben, Since the farmtruck and the mustang have been down for almost as long, I think there should be a rematch some time in the future,lol. You will probably smoke me but i wont be TOO far behind.

Let me know where your place is so i can drop in and see the old DOG.

I dont blame you for going to dirt bikes. Its a lot more fun and a fraction of the cost.

Some of the local cars are getting done but who the heck wants to bury a bunch of money in something like cars right now?

Good luck in your new carrer move. Hope it works out for you and your family..

Thanks Phil, trying to make a decent living as an auto tech doesn't cut it, not when you have to continually buy tools. Figure i'll get a pension, get into a union and have it made working 2-3 days a week.
