Re: 1970's Street Machines
well.... have been building a 69 Camaro with my oldest son. coming along good. My youngest son turned 15 last Friday. Of course he had to get his permit on his birthday and we had a surprise birthday party for him afterwards. Hes a little motorhead. He might be young but ALWAYS wants to be in the middle of the car projects going on. Hes in love with the 67 mustang fastback so when I found this one in a storage unit for 25 years I couldn't pass. It was his teachers late husband who was killed by a drunk driver. She had a real hard time giving it up but knew Austin ( my youngest) from school and felt he was the one that the car should go to. I got it running... new tank,lines,pumps,battery, complete brake system and it drove last Friday for the first time in 25 years !!! The next day hes pulling the motor. Cant blame him.
he has an advantage as I have a machine shop(Big-machine.com ) that he can use to build it real cheap.
Hes an old school type. Loves the bigs and littles not the 19's. watching him inside the engine compartment reminds me of me and my buddys back in the day.... never changes ! love it !!
we are all so lucky to be addicted to cars. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/burnout.gif[/img]
