Default Re: What is more satisfying

I have enjoyed both worlds, got to restore some nice Cars, 69 Camaro Z28's and two COPO's and two L78's, Nova and Chevelle to trailer queen status, and when I am done they go away.. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/naughty.gif[/img]..and I don't have to take care of them.
So I jump in Black Beauty and drive it like a rental, she's held up well, and there is the 69 Malibu W/air, that got a workout last year. So I have to give the edge to the drivers... [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/[/img]

I spent a lot of time making my car near perfect.
Some friends couldn't believe I immediately started driving it.
Put some little bits of melted rubber on the quarter panels the first week.

That's called enjoying your ride!! How can someone enjoy a car that sits in the garage or the only time it is on the road is in/on a trailer. I could never understand that. TAZ

Here is the deal on the &quot;driver&quot; for 58k it was auctioned off 2011 complete with cross ram in trunk, Goodyear repops, correct suspension and brakes for 44k, it is consigned now at a dealer who wants to squeeze me to pay extra for those same items now as separate items. I realize the dealer is in it to make some $$ for the consignor, but it leaves a sour taste in my mouth. I'm going to pass, plus the fact the original block has 3 sleeves (led a hard life)

Trailer queen with no BS here I come, here's to picking rubber out the fender wells [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]
