Matt, for info needed for the boys...

Shermatt · « **Reply #103 on:** February 19, 2010, 12:41:34 pm »

had Angelo over all day....got it ready to fire and the ring gear needed flipping on the flywheel.....

$250 to get it pulled out and $30 to flip or repair the ring gear...day stopped

I loaded the car today onto the trailer to take to Mikes house....and I said to Sheri...F#ck that thing looks TUFF...It actually looks better than I give it credit for

When I dropped it of to Mikes and put it in his driveway......All the new chrome blingin...the straight lines..... I know now Ive done an AMAZING job on that car...its when it stares you in the face every evening haunting me that I need work on other peoples cars, mine makes me feel sick.

Just sits on the back burner.....atleast the time I do put into it......It has come along way....just wish the floor pan under the back seat was welded correctly (like an Ozzie) in the first place and those few little things that bothered me I could redo...no time for the fatkid

But the good ol saying..everyone allways picks on the Fatkid (theres more behind that nickname than meets the eye)

Now its in Mikes driveway...its a WankFest of chrome.....Mikes neybies came out and checked under the hood and said...."Geez, that engine musta cost $10 Grand"...kinda cool compliment....guy even took a photo with his phone

Now I have Cages 68 fastback (project Sheri) in my driveway staring at me with only $500 to throw at it and to be honest....have no idea where to start

Lee, Ive actually sold it mate....

Told the fella that is stays untill I hear that engine fire up...however I cant find the time to work on it, so Im paying a mechanic to finish it off for me so it doesnt mess him around.

I am hoping to have a YouTube video of this LONG AWAITED moment by monday/tuesday

Keep you posted

Hey Matt, just incase you didn't know yoy need to connect the radiator hoses just to help keep her cool.:+

austin71 · « **Reply #119 on:** February 26, 2010, 09:38:56 am »

Sounds awesome Matt.

Shermatt · « **Reply #120 on:** February 26, 2010, 09:44:22 am »

Only ran it for that short time.

Angelo says for another $4-500...he can get everything including the brakes, driveshaft, gearstick and clutch pedal in the car and driving.....very tempting

shane427 · « **Reply #121 on:** February 26, 2010, 11:40:26 am »

Looking good Matt.:(

Dont over do it...

I will have nothing left to do except drive her if you put too much more $ and time in.:+

Cheers for posting the video, will get me through friday at work for sure!!
