On the engine and radiator covers, no problem. Can't wait to see how they look all finished off. It'll be a one of a kind, that's for sure. Just let me know! You know it, wait until people get to feast their eyes on these pieces... you included when it's all said and done... I just hope they are nice enough and mean enough to have you actually want to use them occasionally... not stuff them in the closet or attic... and I'm only kidding about the using them or not... I know you haven't had an engine cover for a very long time... so, it will not hurt my feelers... I probably wont be running mine after the build... I'll loose my Roto-Fab stuff as well... Maybe mine will get hung on the wall in my man cave... and I might have a sale on a Roto-Fab Kit...

Dove tail....:( Tell them to just give me the damn thing already and I'll figure out the shocks on my own end if I need to. Sheesh, GM...Right... It's a gas filled strut...

I don't know how much other stuff I'm getting from Santa. I got the brake lines already from Kevin at MTI via Dana. Jon is sending me my center console stuff hopefully soon. I think Santa wants me to complete it out with a nice leather console base. We'll see...That would be sweet...

But, suspension is where it's at. I'm working at getting some prices down. I just had to toss on $570 worth of rear tires. OUCH....that could have been my spring and sway set up. DAMNIT, MAN!
Corey said I would need tires after the break in and dyno pulls... That will fit in with going to Chandler in April...

It's not a anaconda, it's a bored constricter... this rig gets smaller and smaller every time I come out here and even more so day by day...

An hour or two of privacy would be amazing...

I can't wait to see what you finally end up with. I've seen you jump back and forth...here and there....lol. Just call it a Z and lets leave it at that. Maybe you'll get to see one up close and personal soon. Like...real soon.

Robert, I don't think Doug will mind too much about the pink...

You know it shows how good of a friend you are to call a good friend of Doug's like me and ask some questions about his favorite color.

If you remember correctly he also asked Tom to put a pink pinstripe on his wheels....



So that's pretty cool that you are trying to complete the theme...

He'll love it.

Yep. It all started with this black and pink car...and I thought, "this could be really cool. I could have pink rally's on this puppy with some pink pearl flake. The wheels could be painted pink around the outer edge and man...that would look SUUUUPER! So, to have a pink engine cover to match...that might actually look kinda COOL!!!

What do you think about pink inserts for the doors and maybe pink stitching? I think that just might work!

I got news from Discount Tire. The GM called me on my phone...asked what happened. He wants me to bring it by. I told him I'd be happy to. It's nice to know they read these customer surveys. Pretty cool!
