Very cool Scott!! When does it arrive?
Sweet! And I think it's in the right color palette. I'll do donuts in the purple one until the ignition coughs... with the laptop recording all the while of course.Quote:

Lot's going on the next six weeks so not entirely sure when I'll be able to make
the marathon drive. Have decided I don't want to drive a 40 year old car 1000 miles
as the first thing I do with it. Currently the cruise and A/C are non-functioning
and I'm not certain if the radio works. Drive train was rebuilt recently. Several other
things have been restored and/or refurbished. Will be a fun car.

I'd get a AAA policy and fly up and bring it back...
Not sure my butt really wants to ride that far in the southbound seat.Quote:

combine the two with a water separator between will give me pretty
decent paint spray air and extra volume for random other stuff I do.
A friend of mine has an orange 75 L82 4 speed 'Vette, looks just like that except it has '82 nose and rear bumper cover. I think those additions look great on it.
Enjoy the new toy.
Oh, with regard to the air compressor tank, your 'Vette has a luggage rack. Just sayin'....
Save your ass and have the car shipped. I think I paid $650.00 to get the 55 from N. CA. to Hutto, TX.

Al's old Mustang ran in its first autocross on Sunday:

However I wasn't driving. My son got his driver's license in May and this was his first foray on track.
Since we got the car from Al in January of 2015 my son has added a Steeda hood and front fascia that we found on Craigslist, bought and had painted a Steeda wing, added the Steeda side stripe, bought 2015 Mustang black track pack wheels (not on the car, burn up Al's old tires for his first autocross, LOL), and bought and installed the Boss Mustang fog light deletes.
All but the fog light deletes were before he even had his license so I think the next generation of ponycar guys is secure!
